I, personally, don't use common names but God bless you for doing all that work.
I seem to remember a push to not count every episode but count seasons instead as it had the potential to really skew the results. I don't know if anything ever came from from that discussion. T!M is more of a common name expert than I am so you might want to ask him. | Posted: Topic Replies: 5, Topic Views: 429 |

I don't think it's vague at all. "at any time when the film is played with the language matching the profile's locality"
For a German profile of a German release, if the film is played with the dialogue dubbed in German, then you would include the voice actors if they are displayed at any time. If you happened to choose, as an example, Spanish. Then you would not include them as that doesn't match the profile's locality.

Did you ever see the speakers in 20+ languages ALWAYS shown at the end of something from Netflix?
I'm actually seeing this more an more where there are multiple screens at the very end of a show or movie listing the voice actors for different localities. | Posted: Topic Replies: 5, Topic Views: 429 |

and what would you add here ?
I added "Lionsgate Limited 25th Anniversary Uncut Version" as edition
I would not include "Lionsgate Limited" as it is not on the cover. | Posted: Topic Replies: 19, Topic Views: 1663 |

Access ? Is the office ap?
That was my thought. I initially used MS Access when I first started collecting but it was a very rudimentary design. Nothing even close to what Movie Madness did. | Posted: Topic Replies: 101, Topic Views: 43647 |

yea. you are correct. and it SUCKS, doesn't it?? i can't remember how many i profiles i've submitted, but i can tell you that ONE HUNDRED PERCENT of them were rejected. after a while, being told "NO" over and over, i stopped trying. and now NO ONE gets ANY benefit of the effort i've put in for the better part of two decades! and that SUCKS.
And why was that? I'm assuming you're specifically referring to cast and crew data. I've submitted lots of updates over the past two decades and have rarely had issues.
Yeah, this seems odd. I've not contributed a lot...less than 1,000 profiles...but I don't think I've ever had a single one declined. For someone to have all of their declined seems to indicate a pattern of not following the rules.  | Posted: Topic Replies: 25, Topic Views: 19193 |

This looks amazing, do you make this available for others too?
If I shared my work with others, I would violate IMDb's terms the same way DVD Profiler would, I believe, because my tool imports heavily from IMDb.
I'm a little late to this but I don't think he meant sharing your database data, just your database design. I use Microsoft Office but don't have the programming skills to create something this nice so would definitely be interested in the design. | Posted: Topic Replies: 101, Topic Views: 43647 |

Certainly there must be someone out there who wishes to keep this software going? I don’t understand the plan here.
I honestly don't see the upside for someone to buy and maintain the software. As far as I can tell, without a huge overhaul to the business model, it's a money pit. I don't maintain my own servers but maintenance and bandwidth have to be costing Ken something and, without new revenue streams, it's a money pit.
Or am I wrong?  | Posted: Topic Replies: 7, Topic Views: 7365 |

I actually think the rules are fairly clear on this. If a film is individually packaged, use the cover images from that packaging. If they are not individually packaged, they use the cover from the box set.
This. I handle it differently local (I hate having the boxcover for all the movies) but for the online DB I too think the rules are quite clear.
This for me as well...Mithi's portion. I also handle it differently in my local. | Posted: Topic Replies: 7, Topic Views: 7663 |

| Yes, this is allowed. You would create a normal profile for the 4K version and then add a child profile for the Blu-ray disc. | Posted: Topic Replies: 6, Topic Views: 6429 |

| Pete is correct. That is not an exception to the common name rule, it is a clarification. Military rank/affiliation and other honorifics are not names, they are exactly what they are so we ignore them. | Posted: Topic Replies: 10, Topic Views: 9762 |
