Post File has wrong IMDB data - how to reset
I am new to Movienizer, and I am having trouble figuring out the functions. I have added some movies to a database and went through the task of loading information from IMDB. Each time Movienizer needed clarification, I either made a choice of movie or skipped the file. For the most part, this did exactly what I was expecting. But, it seems that Movienizer made some incorrect assumptions and some of the movies now have the wrong data associated with them.

How do I 1) remove the incorrect data from the database entry, and 2) change something about the file (I assume) so that Movienizer has an easier time finding the info in IMDB, or specify myself which IMDB code to use for the retrieval?

Thank you,
Cat

Hi Cat,

Just delete the movie (one way, in left panel, is to right click on movie title and choose delete)

Just insert the imdb id anywhere in the title (start or end or middle or... anywhere) using 'tt' + 7 digits like in MyMovie_tt0123456.avi : more details here

what I like doing, (not that I have to, but I do it anyway) I go to IMDB and find the movie I want to add, then get the movie number from the address line and use that number to download the movie. that way I am sure to get the movie I want.
I know it seems the long way, and it is. but I ALWAYS get the right movie.
