Well heres the thing, I have 520 movies, and 488 are being resolved. I don't want to sit down and look through the entire list to find out which ones aren't being resolved. So is there any way I can export a list of the resolved files into a text document?

Using this method (http://superuser.com/questions/63396/how-to-export-a-directory-list-from-command-prompt) you can take a folder and list its contents. Then we can compare the two files for discrepancies, would make helping you guys out a lot easier

These are the pains of being a private beta tester. Remember, the point of signing-up is to help make it better for everyone. Your complaint is akin to signing-up for the armed service and being upset people keep shooting at you.

Adding an export feature would be one more thing that needs to be tested. Also, it would have to work on all platforms equally.

Being in the Beta is a slightly exulted position, and the hope is that users of the Beta will live-up to the demanding requirements. A large library of movies makes you a prime candidate... it also burdens you with a higher responsibility to the larger community.

Fail! The Nutty Professor (1963) why is it displaying the artwork of the Eddie Murphy remake?

I had a question about foreign titles. Say I have a Japanese film named by the English /International name, here's an example http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0459168/

When I submit the form, for movie title do I use the English/International title or the romanized title that IMDB uses?

[marcel]

try with both ...

Per the first quote, please post your unresolved movie issues at the link above. We don't need to have posts in mulitple threads.

Thanks.

Well that didn't work. alternate or main version. I'm guessing it might be due to the hyphens in the romanized title. It seems like the database won't accept entries that use "Alternate Titles" period. Is this an known issue and planned to be resolved or just something we have to deal with it?

Because of my testing I have several possible versions of the full file path name, using alternate titles and title IMDB uses as the official title. Should I copy and paste all of them into the single line text box?

Just look at the snapshots - it's just all over the place with wrong recognition... :( DISTRICT 9 is supposed to be 2012 (2009) but no idea why it shows DIstrict 9...

I don't think the screenshots were really necessary. Indeed plenty of movies are being recognized incorrectly that is why this thread is a sticky. But I did notice some of your files that were incorrectly identified didn't have a year in the filename. Also if a filename is what IMDB classifies as an "Alternate Title" at the moment Boxee won't recognize it(at least in my experiences). They are well aware of the scraping issues. Just use the form in the first post to get them to solved all of your movie inconsistencies. The screenshots aren't much use for them.

Guys, we know about the indexing errors. Please help us by posting your incorrecly indexed or non-indexted movies in the link Marcel gave in the first post. OK?
