An option por duplicate movies is needed. Thanks

Could you please provide more details? What would such option do?

I've run across this where I've entered the same movie twice by accident. Either that or when I updated the program these movies were duplicated for some reason. Both have basically the same text information, but one has a few more (or different) screen shots, covers, etc. So I had to pick which one I wanted to keep and dump the other. I was thinking it would be nice if I could merge the two entries so that any additional/different information could be kept.

I've been down this track before in the "General Discussion" forum and maybe my posting there will help.

Re: HOW TO LIST MULTIPLE COPIES OR FORMATS OF THE SAME MOVIE

I've got the same situation with multiple versions of "Prisoner of Zenda" and "Scarlet Pimpernel". My solution was to:
- Add the first movie (The Scarlet Pimpernel 1982) normally and save it
- Add the next one separately, making sure the correct version (The Scarlet Pimpernel 1934) was selected and save it
- Edit each of the two titles to clean up the various pictures, including doing additional searches for more pictures on the net if necessary

The third step is needed because while there are two separate titles with correct details, actors and so on, the "Covers" sub-directory can't seem to deal with identical tiles and mixes all pictures for both titles using the same naming convention Scarlet Pimpernel-##. The overall process is a bit tedious but it works for me because I don't have that many titles like this and all are same format (DVD) with just different year variations. Where I have two versions of the same movie like American Werewolf in Paris (Region 4 has different ending as well as different aspect ratio and resolution to Region 1 version), I list both as separate editions under same title.

This is all a learning experience as I get everything out of my old Excel records into Movienizer.
