¿No es la definitiva lo primero bajable? La 1240 

[Wigum]

Efectivamente, está la 1240. No sé si será la definitiva, puesto que ya están comentando algunos errores. Por si acaso la actualizo ahora mismo, a ver qué hay.

Gracias Jesus!

[JESUSJST]

Ayer ya contribuí algunas fichillas y las aceptaron y subieron en tiempo récord

Seguiré atento a las clases del masterwigumneitor, por cierto, gracias a ti

[Wigum]

Bueno, estoy toqueteando cosas, aunque será en esta semana que viene cuando me ponga más en serio. Eso sí, una de las cosas nuevas te gustará, jesusete. Ahora se pueden editar 2 géneros, modificables, pero no contribuibles. Es decir, que si quiero, puedo poner el género que me dé la gana en mis pelis. (Por ejemplo, cine de juicios, películas en las que sale una mujer desnuda, etc).

[JESUSJST]

te gustará, jesusete.
películas en las que sale una mujer desnuda

Joder tío, que a veces me lee mi mujer, ya has destapado mi catalogación más profunda de películas 

La verdad es que me había pasado desapercibida esa pijotadilla chachi, espero ansioso tus comentarios sobre tus experimentaciones con la nueva versión, maestro

[Wigum]

Esta semana, esta semana...

[Wigum]

Bueno, estoy toqueteando algunas cosillas, y os cuento las que me han llamado la atención:

Rating System & Rating Details.
Diferencian entre la distribuidora en cines, y en dvd (o bd).
Se pueden poner hasta 5 géneros. 2 de ellos totalmente configurables, pero no contribuibles.
Han añadido hasta 16 audios, así que no habrá problema para que quepan todos. Subtítulos, ya en catalán, gallego o euskera. Falta el valenciano
Se puede poner cursiva en la sinopsis.
Ya hay un apartado para ver las películas que determinado usuario ha visto, incluyendo la fecha. Algo que antes se tenía que ver ejecutando un informe.

Seguiremos investigando.

[JESUSJST]

Sobretodo el añadir audios y eso de separar la editora del disco, de las productoras me ha gustado, normalmente yo ponía siempre la editora la última de las tres opciones que daba antes de la "reforma" 

Gracias jefe, siga compartiendo su sabiduría

[Wigum]

Otra novedad realmente interesante tiene que ver con los box-set. Antes tenías que descargar una a una las pelis del pack. Ahora, sólo con poner la UPC del box se descargan toodas las fichas de las que conste.

La de trabajo que me hubiera ahorrado!

[JESUSJST]

La de trabajo que me hubiera ahorrado!

¡Bah! ¡y lo satisfecho que te quedaste después de acabarlo!  ¿no? 

Supongo que todas estas mejoras deben ser consecuencia de las sugerencias que haya en los foros ¿no?, ¿hay posts en spanish?, ¿has trasteado también en eso, master? (fijo que si  )

[Wigum]

No hay hilo de sugerencias en spanish, pero sí, todos los avaneces son consecuencia de las propuestas.

[L@NDER]

Y cataloga tambien blu-ray?

[Wigum]

Sí, L@nder. De cualquier zona. Ya estás tardando

Para el que quiera ver como queda, en mi firma: Mi ruína le lleva directamente.

Las fichas con huecos...son mi culpa, que no he tenido tiempo de actualizar.

[L@NDER]

Pues si me entra la vena me pondre algun dia con ello pero es que son tantas que da un poco de pereza

[Wigum]

Pero ya sabes que sólo introduciendo el código de barras te sale la ficha, no? Y si no, siempre puedes adquirir un código de barras...

Los HD-DVD también los cataloga.

[L@NDER]

Gracias Wigum me pondre con ello en breve,eso si poco a poco

[JESUSJST]

De edición española faltan bastantes fichas de Blu-ray en su base de datos, alguna vez he tenido que contribuir alguna cosa a partir de la ficha de otro país (que si no ponía que copiaba datos de alguna otra edición no me la aceptaban por si copiaba IMDB  )

[Wigum]

Ese es el truco, descargarse la de otro país, copiar, y apañaos.

[JESUSJST]

Ese es el truco, descargarse la de otro país, copiar, y apañaos.

Yo miro todas las fichas de otro país y las que tienen el reparto más extenso son las que cojo, luego modifico las características de la edición española, pongo en la contribución de donde he sacado el reparto, et voilà, ficha aceptada en menos de 24 horas

[Wigum]

Nueva: Sigue siendo beta, así que seguirá cambiando 

Version 3.5.1, Beta build 1245 is now available for download.  This build should be considered a test release.  It is recommended that you save your current layout to a permanent file before running this release as the layout file format has changed.

It is recommended that you run this version on a different computer from your main collection.  If that isn't possible, you can also create a new database in version 3.1.1 via File->Open Database and use that database for testing version 3.5.1.

The download link is available from the 'Downloads' link above.

Important Notes:

Contributions from version 3.5.1 are not yet being accepted.  We will enable contribution later in this beta cycle.

[JESUSJST]

Esta vez si que no me instalo ninguna edición Beta hasta que no salga la definitiva (por si me apetece contribuir alguna fichilla), estaré atento a lo que cuente usted, su wigumnidad 

[Wigum]

Para empezar el año (bueno, fue para terminarlo), nueva versión, la 1252.

No añade prácticamente nada, básicamente solucionar un par de desajustes, pero existir, existe

[JESUSJST]

Bajada e instalada, más que nada porque me salía el aviso de que existía nueva versión cada vez que abría el Profiler 

Gracias una vez más, Wig

[Wigum]

Una de las cosas que ya se ha solucionado es lo de la búsqueda de las partes de un pack. Antes no se podía, y ahora ya se pueden buscar en cada pack las películas que le pertenecen.

[Wigum]

Hacía ya tiempo que no había nueva versión (beta)

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:

- Added option to nest/not nest box sets in collection list (accessible from the drop-down in the top right of collection list)
