Hi DVDSpot refugees !
Here is the first beta of our new import feature
-> Coollector_BETA.exe <-
HOW IT WORKS
1) copy Coollector_BETA.exe into the same directory you installed Coollector.
2) launch Coollector_BETA.exe.
3) click the "add" button (the third central button, with a "plus" icon).
4) click "IMPORT VIDEOS ... from a DVDSpot CSV file".
5) locate your CSV file.
6) wait until the import has finished.
7) view the files that couldn't be imported.
RATINGS CONVERSION
This beta translates DVDSpot ratings like this:
5 => excellent
4½ => very good
4 => very good
3½ => good
3 => good
2½ => neutral
2 => bad
1½ => bad
1 => very bad
½ => awful
WHAT REMAINS TO BE DONE
1) fix the bugs you'll find.
2) improve the success rate.
3) user-defined scheme to convert ratings.
4) don't import a video if it's already there.
5) display barcode information of videos (existing & owned).
I'd much appreciate your feedback
For the moment, don't worry too much about the failed imports. What I especially need to know is whether everything that was imported is fine, or not.
Thank you very much for your help !!!
USE WITH CAUTION: to start over, and make new tests with an empty database, I've set up an easy way to erase your database: simply click the "exit" button (last central button, with a "door" icon).
