Yea, good point. DC assumes a 1:1 relation between item and storage, which in your case doesn't exist. Same thing if you store e.g. a feature length HD movie in CD-sized files. Filename doesn't make sense here at all anymore, any part would do.
I think it boils down to that DC assumes a model in which files are stored in directories. Which doesn't work when you for example have several USB...

I have one instance of a AVI which refueses to get imported, dying with this Exception any time I try.

I have enough specimem, I'll re-import a few with the new version and look what changes. Maybe the problem is just a consequence of the FPS bug. We'll see.

Addition: On second thought, there are two indepenent Aspect Ratios, one for the production and one for the medium you own, You may well have a DVD produced in 1.85:1 and remastered to 16:9. Doh.

Problem: It seems that the setting for image labels set in the "View" column of the main view doubles as label in the "New Movie" tab. This leads to a subtle problem. I've set my labeling in the "View" section to "Ttile (local/Year". None of the two is available for newly imported movies. This means all labels are blank, undistinguishable without opening them, after which you need to look at the...

My attitude towards "smart" software is simple. I know what I am doing and I hate it when software wants to outsmart me, especially if it does so silently. A similar case is the silent capitalization of first letters in titles. Of course I didn't notice it, but I probably indirectly had an impact, because I got more hits back than actually needed.
I understand that for other users some...

Tried to enter "[●REC]" as a title for a movie import, now I get the same thing as for directly entering it into the ctrl-U dialog ("Please enter what ....").
As for strpping anything from a title, I don't like that. Argument is simple. If I search for "Dracula (1931)" I really want that year. Actually 100% of my searches have a year in round brackets in them, as that is how files are named.

It happened in an update from the new movie dialog, I'll try that too. But here is something which is fishy and probably related.
Reproduce:
1) Open "Online Search" directly from main app (ctrl-U)
2) Enter "[●REC]"
3) A dialog pop ups "Please enter what you are looking for"
Removing the "●" char doesn't halp, it's the square bracket you need to remove to get DC actually starting a...

Yep, agreed, rare case but real.
FYI: It doesn't seem to be the Unicode char causing the problem as I just verified. "I ♥ Huckabees (2004)" also has a Unicode symbol in it's name, but Online Search has no problems with that one.

When trying to look up a title with a Unicode symbol in it in movie search, DC throws an exception. Example: "[●REC] (2007)". There is no error message and the HTTP request is never actually sent.
