in kürze wird eine neue version unseres geliebten DVD Profilers veröffentlicht.

hier die release notes der aktuellen beta:

Quote:
Note: This is a partial list and does not include many of the bug fixes and smaller items. Also, it's unparsed so forgive any grammaticul and speling errors also. Also.

- Performance! All users should see 25-40% faster startup, and some who have had really slow startups will see an enormous improvement. Startup is the major improvement but some other aspects are improved as well. For instance, Movie Pick load is now 30% faster.

- One of the performance improvements is so big it gets its own line: Greatly improved performance of changing genre, rating, and media type filters in the Add DVD window

- New in this Beta cycle is parallel mode. When you first run the Beta, it will ask whether to run in Parallel mode or not. Parallel mode leaves your existing installation untouched and stores all its settings and files in alternate locations, and will start out with an empty database. Note that if you subsequently choose to open one of the main databases, it will be converted to version 3.6's structure.

- Lots of enhancements to the plugin API, with more planned in the 3.6 cycle. Improvements will allow new plugin functionality and greatly improved performance.

- New feature: Database sharing.
- Under Tools->Options->Sharing, you can set the program to share via a particular port.
- View-only and View/Change will be supported. For now, View/Change allows setting Watched By only. Additional features will be added in the 3.6 cycle
- Server can view a list of connected clients and can ban IPs
- Server and client can send a command for all connected programs to select and display a particular DVD
- Connection is protected via customizable password
- Database sharing is one of the options for data access from DVD Profiler for the iPhone.

- Custom collection types (up to 10):
- A choice of indicator graphics for each
- Each can optionally track collection number and purchase info
- The built-in types can be optionally hidden.

- New Exclusions section in DVD->Personalize allows exclusion on a per-profile basis for movie pick, Mobile, iPhone, remote desktops, and the public and private online collections

- New "Count As" setting in DVD->Personalize allows defining how many entries the profile is counted as in collection counts

- Improved support for barcode scanners, including batch scanning.
- Added 'Add Multiple' feature to Add DVDs by UPC interface. Fully automated additions by UPC file, entry, or barcode scanner.
- Barcode scanning is now automatically detected in the main window - just scan directly and the program will take an intelligent action. For instance, if the title is in your Wish List or Ordered collection, the program will prompt to move it to Owned. If it's marked as Loaned, it will prompt to mark as returned, etc.

- HD Media banners now supported all over, including Movie Pick and reports

- New divider type for cast and crew, can be set to group a section of credits together within a particular episode

- Clicking links in the program will now always launch the default browser rather than launching in Internet Explorer. WOOT!

- Credit lists can now optionally display a credited count for each. Note there is a performance hit for this option

- Individual profiles can now be shared via File->Create Profile File. These files do not contain personal information (collection number, history, etc). Others can open the file to import it (if it exists already, they'll see the comparison interface from which they can choose which data to import)

- Review scores for Metacritic, RottenTomatoes, and Invelos' average user reviews shown on the toolbar for each respective link button. Additionally, the user review button will
highlight based on whether text reviews are available.

- Combined all diagnostic startup options into a new single interface: When holding ctrl, alt, or shift at startup, diagnostic startup options are shown: resetting interface, disabling all plugins, loading a standard layout, etc.

- Cast/Crew info window has an improved look with more data, larger images, and expandable credit listings including episodes and groups

- Existing custom crew is maintained and merged when downloading profile updates (Double WOOT!)

- The Welcome screen has a new section for loaned items, Section shows automatically when loans are overdue, and the welcome screen can be set to do the same.

- From the Welcome screen loaned section, can set as returned, change due date, or send a customizable email reminder

- Revamped audio track system:
- Each track now contains a Content, Format, and Channels designation
- When editing a profile, applicable track channel configurations are shown for the selected audio format
- Audio filter "and" behavior changed - the matching is made on a per-track basis, so filtering "French", "Dolby Digital" "5.1" will find only those profiles with a French DD 5.1 track
- Added "lossless" to the format filter choices

- Added exception trapping and reporting system, with optional post of debug info

- Cast and crew section can now display multiple rows of images. Right-click for option to set rows to 1-6

- Official support for Windows 7

Smaller yet still cool:
- I believe the black image printing issue _may_ be resolved. Let me know if you can reproduce it with this version.
- Added option to nest/not nest box sets in collection list (accessible from the drop-down in the top right of collection list)
- When adding a title via the Add DVD window the program checks for similar titles in your collection (same title or original title, close production year), and shows a little blinking exclamation mark. Click it for details on the dupes.
- Added genres for Film Noir and Children's
- Added optional credited count column to all cast and crew listings
- UNC names can now be used in File Folder settings
- Deletion of child profiles is now recursive
- Corrected nesting of bold and italic tags in overview. The tags properly close as well, and additional cleanup to the html was done.

- Added option to lock layout (View->Lock Layout)
- Blu-ray/DVD combo now selectable when editing media types
- —, –, ™, ©, ®, † now display properly in overview edit window
- Added buttons to enter special characters (—, –, ™, ©, ®, †) into overview
- When database repair utility is finished, it now displays the list of repair notes
- Added Next matching cast/crew buttons to quickly select matching entries in the credits when filtering by cast/crew
- Overview text color now set correctly w/a black background
- Increased length of Disc Location field to 250 characters
- Optional selection highlighting of current cast/crew photo
- If the files in the data directory are read-only, the program warns and offers to change it
- Purchase place selection field now supports incremental search
- Changed settings of file uploader component to resolve firewall issues when contributing
- Greatly improved speed and accuracy of DVD Profiler Online synch when synching between two computers
- Added chart for Purchase Places
- Title fields in the Add DVD window now allow full length for titles
- Bookmark support: Press Ctrl+Shift+Num to mark a spot, Ctrl+Num to jump back to it
- Thumbnail and detail view now show a little indicator of the number of days till release (can be disabled)
- Add ability to edit tags from personalize window, edit window
- Front and back cover image displays now accept file drag/drop. Files dragged this way will not be recompressed and will instead be copied byte for byte.
- Added report element for Last Watched, shows the date last watched by anyone
- Lots of new tags for the HTML panels including tags for matching colors to the current display theme, and for new data elements
- Rating chart now correct when reviews partially set (e.g. 2 stars, 0 stars now total as 2 stars instead of 2 1/2)
- Added sort by production year in the Add DVD window

- History and Notes added to Paste window

- Added search field for studios in the filters panel
- Include "Watched notes" also in the users watched history
- Added Copy History to Clipboard option to user's history and DVD History

Nur schade, dass davon noch immer keine Mac-Version geplant ist. So muss ich das unabkömmliche Ding immer erst aufwändig emulieren.

Da ich kürzlich auf Mac gewechselt bin, bin ich nach langem Suchen nach Alternativen zu der fabelhaften DVDpedia gewechselt. Das tolle daran: man kann alle Einträge des Profilers nahtlos importieren und nebenbei seine Sammlung bei Bedarf auf dem i-Phone verwalten.

Trotzdem: DVDProfiler ist ein bleibt ein Spitzenprogramm, ein wenig trauere ich ihm schon nach.
