Bruji

A huge positive for the Mac app store: buying from it guarantees the software will work on all your Macs. Too many developers (though certainly not the kind folks at Bruji) want to sell you a separate copy for each one of your Macs. I also think the store will be a huge boon for small developers. I ...

I guess this would be the best way to replace a disk name in the Links/URL field as in:

sqlite3 ~/Library/Application\ Support/DVDpedia/Database.dvdpd
update zEntry set zURL = replace(zSummary, 'WD 2TB Internal 4', 'Macintosh HD 4');

Is that correct?

The news is that Mac OS X 10.7 Lion removes Front Row (at least from the current developer preview). This is devastating news to us as heavy Front Row/DVDPedia users. I'm hoping that Conor and the good people at Bruji have some thoughts on how to fill in the gap. Obviously DVDPedia has its own fulls...

It seems to me the only way to do this right is to have new PediaServer app, which does all DB I/O, while the individual Pedia programs talk to the server, instead of performing file I/O directly (obviously, this would be an optional setup). Count me in as someone who would love to use such a beast....

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0330307/ Actor credits don't load from IMDB. True. But the cast list seems a bit strange on IMDb, since there are only actor names... maybe somethings wrong with their data This is a continuing problem for me -- there are documentaries, obscure arty stuff etc. where no c...

When posting/editing replies on this forum's "News" section, BB code (and smilies) are off no matter what your user control panel setting. Works fine here in bug reports.

[quote="Nora"]Obviously we wouldn't simply take Amazon away and leave the Pedias with nothing - we'd replace Amazon with something better and more reliable, such as our own database. Which is why going 'Amazon-free' would take quite some time since the database and its interface have to be...

I guess the moral with L'origine was to type instead of the copy/paste I did for greater accuracy...

I never tried the director thing before, I just did because the title search wasn't working.
I suspect that the characters in the third movie didn't have names.

I entered the complete title: À l’origine
if it showed up on the list, I can't find it.

@weirded76 Will it be possible to use Pocketpedia 1 with the new version (4.5.4) of dvdpedia ? Will Pocketpedia 1 continue to do a full sync? The new versions will take out the Amazon info as well for the old Pocketpedia, in fact by default on a new install the Pedias won't sync with the old Pocket...

Actually now that I look at it this should be very easy -- RedLaser attaches to the email a file called raw-barcodes.txt containing exactly that.

Sorry if this has been covered elsewhere: Any chances of adding barcode scanning to a future PocketPedia version? I'm sure you've seen the RedLaser iPhone app, and on the iPhone 3GS it works remarkably well. Second suggestion -- iPhone remote for DVDPedia in full screen mode. That would be AWESOME!...

No I don't. PokeEye (& also Snatch) the iPhone based EyeTV remotes I use don't support EyeTV fullscreen menus. I did try to put EyeTV in fullscreen manually before I launched DVDPedia but that didn't help.
