- In the Person window, you can now search for a title by pressing Ctrl-F.
- In the Person window, you can now sort by more than one column by selecting Custom sorting from the context menu.
- When the Movie or Television windows are opened from a Person window, the entry for that person is selected and highlighted in the cast and/or crew listing.
- In the Television window, the cast and crew listings have been merged to a common tab, the same as in the Movie window.

For the cast, it's easy. The rules say that the end credits are leading. Although it's not in the rules, I always thought that if the crew was listed in both the opening and end credits, the ones in the opening credits were leading.
That makes sense to me. | Posted: Topic Replies: 4, Topic Views: 317 |

I manually entered the UPC into the top box and pressed the enter key.
Ah! That was the key to finding the problem. I built the basic functions first and tested them. Then I added the advanced functions (list processing) and neglected to re-test everything again. What a rookie error for someone who's been programming for half a century! 
Thanks for your patience, ObiKen! I hope I can remove my Dunce cap now.

That doesn't sound good! I'll have to check it out and get back. Maybe I still deserve that Dunce hat?

Is the help file missing in the 2.0.1 release?
Dang! I'll have to give myself an F in testing this time!
I'll just go sit in the corner and hang my head in shame!
Thanks for pointing it out, ObiKen!

ContribLookupPlus 2.0
Here's another major update of a (perhaps) minor tool.
As with version 1, the object is to trace the "provenance" of cast/crew that has been copied from another profile. I have tried to make it easier to follow the contribution trail by identifying IDs mentioned in the contribution notes, and adding them as buttons that will open the referenced contribution notes in a new window.
If you have a list (a flag set) of IDs whose contribution notes you wish to check, you can load that list and go through it. For those who are really anal about the correctness of their profiles (and haven't actually checked every title themselves), there is even a bonus program that lets you find every profile in your collection where there is an ID mentioned in the contribution notes. It let's you save those to a list that you can then load into the main program.
Also, this version uses WebView2 as a browser, rather than CefSharp. This means a lot smaller footprint. Nowadays that's probably not very important to most people, but if you care, you can delete the old version before installing this new one.

There are 12 contributions up for voting for the child profiles of the Shawscope Volume One box set. They all use scans from the enclosed booklet rather than the scan of the actual box. I understand the reason that the contributor prefers these images. Just having the same boxset image for all 12 looks boring. I'm not sure it's a good thing, though. My reasons:
1) There is no mention in the rules that boxset child profiles can have scans from booklets.
2) It looks odd to have the front cover from the booklet and the back cover from the (oversized) box.
I was under the impression that the front and back scans should be the same size, but I see no mention of that in the rules.
It would have been great if we could have had Ken weigh in on this, but that's not going to happen. So I guess the ultimate ruling is down to the community and the screeners. So, what do you think? Acceptable or not? | Posted: Topic Replies: 7, Topic Views: 785 |

Gunnar,

Gunnar, it would be very handy and helpful if we could just have the ability to copy (right click with mouse button) the profile picture of actor/actress/crew and paste it into DVDP. Tricky?
Yeah, it would probably be tricky, but I will take a look at it.

It would also be handy to have TmdbInfo windows to permanently stay on top (by checkbox) and remember their size and window position.
On top can be done. Size/position for the main window, sure. For the individual child windows? Not sure how to do that as they are dynamically created and there can be any number of them. Anyway, their width is set to fit the content, so it would seem to be counterproductive to change that. | Posted: Topic Replies: 16, Topic Views: 1971 |

BirthYearView 1.1.0
I finally found a way to programmatically search in the WebView2 browser. So now the program automatically searches for the correct person in the IMDb listing:
I also added production year in the treeview listing. This makes it easier to differentiate between movies of the same name, and it also helps spotting unlikely differences between birth year and production year.
And as always, if you don't see the latest version in the download page - refresh your browser! | Posted: Topic Replies: 13, Topic Views: 2122 |

| CapitalizationCheck is now supposed to capitalize every word that comes before and after a colon. If there are instances where it doesn’t, let me know. Actually, I don’t think it works if there is a blank before the colon. But there shouldn’t be. | Posted: Topic Replies: 13, Topic Views: 3027 |

CapitalizationCheck 1.0.1
Correctly capitalizes words that end with a colon. Can I call that "colonialization"?  (Avoiding cruder colon jokes) | Posted: Topic Replies: 13, Topic Views: 3027 |

I will check that out further. I did check those boxes, but still had to make the change myself. I am good though. Your program found several issues with capitalization...Excellent.
I checked and it works as intended for me. | Posted: Topic Replies: 13, Topic Views: 3027 |

Seems to me the Invelos title tool is treating the colon as a continuation mark in the title, so the preceding word is no longer the last word in the title.
Ah, I see what you mean. I guess I'm making the same mistake. I considered everything in the title field to be a single title. So, if I understand you correctly, for capitalization purposes anything followed by a colon should be capitalized as if it were a last word? | Posted: Topic Replies: 13, Topic Views: 3027 |

As always: Excellent Program. Now if it could make the correction for you, if you want. But, I'm happy knowing where the problems are and being able to open the profile for editing.
If you check those two last checkboxes in the settings, double-clicking will make the correction. You'll still have to accept it by clicking OK, though. I hesitated to take it any further than that, since I didn't want any unintended changes to slip through. | Posted: Topic Replies: 13, Topic Views: 3027 |

| I'm not 100% sure if I take colon into consideration, but the main problem with "As Time Goes By" is that "by" is (incorrectly) listed in the settings among the words that should not be capitalized. My mistake. | Posted: Topic Replies: 13, Topic Views: 3027 |
