It became a little bit silent here? So I only can hope that somebody could answer me this:
You see I step by step try to update all the missing years of one award after another. And I never had the idea to think about, if one of the so called "finished" years seriously IS finished.
Until last week! I got a DVD where the Award it recieved was printed on the cover. But nothing in the database. Hm... so I checked online, if the covertext tells the truth - and it does.
So please don't get me wrong, I respect all the work which has been done so far.
My problem now is - concerning this movie at least - that the mentioned Award gives out something like 20 different awards. But in our database there are only enterted the first three of them.
Sur, I don't know if this year is THE exception and all the other years are complete. And I as less know if this Award is the only one where only the three to call them "main awards" are entered into the database or if the same happend to other awards, too.
For me this is a little bit difficult to understand if I start a year, do the basic awards of it - and then forward the data as kind of finished.
And checking now all the data allready available if and how much is missing + updating if neccessary, is hell of a job.
So does anyone of you remember if he/she did something that way and remembers which years of which award are not complete yet?

Anybody around here? It is a little bit disappointing not to recieve any response within four weeks. So this way it might be even more difficult to get some of you for my next idea!
Well, I am still on updates, nearly every single day spending hours. Plus aditionally some awards not even part of the database. And some of them are running for shockingly much years meanwhile like the one I finished last night "Mostra Internazionale d'Arte Cinematografica della Biennale di Venezia" (Venice Film Festival): 1934 - 2024
On the search for the original title I crossed a lot of movies allready part of my collection. And to find out then that one of them recieved more than 50 awards and only 2 or 3 are part of the database yet was shocking. Some of them are quite young, running not even for 10 years, but others award movies since 1965. So I did a list of the awards "my" movie has recieved and I couldn't find in the database yet. Anyone interested to care about one or more of them? I hope that Tom hast time soon to upload all my updates that you can see that I have finished something like 150 years of awards... And here is a HUGE load of work still to do (the link is the first year with movies listed, sometimes they have years before but without any data):

Not to mention that there are others, too, not in the database yet...
It would be helpful for all of us if some of the awards will be done by one of you. Simply too much work for one alone....

Actually I am doing updates for a lot of the Awards, and when Tom is back from his holiday, I am sure he will upload them to his site and you all can get them.
But actually I am at a little problem for the update of the "Online Film Critics Society Awards":
Up to including 2011, the Awards always happened in January of the following year. That means, what is listed in Wiki as "Online Film Critics Society Awards 2011", in our database is listed as 2012.
Bad now is, that from 2012 on forward - starting wit "Online Film Critics Society Awards 2012" - the Awards were done in December of the same year. And now we need a solution how this year and the following should be entered into the database. Something like "2012-2" or "2012b" is not possible.
Best posibility iMo was to add them as "2013" (altough they happened in 2012). What's your opinion? | Posted: Topic Replies: 711, Topic Views: 80457 |

As I can't find this "S modus" anywhere in my settings, all sites make me believe that I am not in it...
But at least now I found a way to open your tool...
When the xml is done, I might find out if it works the way I hope ;-)

| It's just a theory that Win11 automatically doesn't "want" that .exe-Files could be executed just by a doubleclick. But as I never had this before, I got no idea where I can change this setting | Posted: Topic Replies: 7, Topic Views: 3467 |

I wanted to try it... but I absolutely don't know what to do or how to handle this tool?
After unpacking, I got a folder with a bunch of files... but for the .exe I even can't choose just to "run" it...
It opens with something I have never seen and used before named "Microsoft Visual Studio".
I checked out all options, but no chance for "run", only "open with..."
Win11 has a lot of bad jokes for me... | Posted: Topic Replies: 7, Topic Views: 3467 |

Well, as "Voyna i mir" was a fourparter, the different years are not really a wonder.
As far as I remeber "historic news" this production is called "the most expensive production in the history of the USSR". And as those vour parts all have their length, they were released in different years (at least in USSR, don't know the rest of the world).
Mine say: Part 1 in 1965, Part 2 in 1966 and Part 3 + 4 in 1967
I got no idea how the award-add on technically works. My last post was nothing else than a presumption.
But meanwhile I am not that sure if the year matters so much entered in the profile.
"Journey Into Self" (Documentary) won the Award in '69. It was released in '69 (year in my profile as well), too - but I got the see the Oscar allready for '68.
And to avoid any possible misspellings: I copied "Voyna i mir" from the Awards-Database into the profile of every single title as OT (each part on a different disc, I had the "full" OT before = Voyna i mir + name of the "episode") - but no change... | Posted: Topic Replies: 711, Topic Views: 80457 |

It is at least the plan to honor the films of the time since the last cerenomy, but at least for those from different years it only works, if I change the profile of the movie to the "wrong" year or add the award myself to the database.
Example "Voyna i mir" (Krieg und Frieden), the russian 4-partner of 1965. Got an Oscar in 1969 and is in the database for '68... without a change of the awards-data or the profile I don't see the Oscar there | Posted: Topic Replies: 711, Topic Views: 80457 |

Some worries I don't understand so much...
Well, with my old computer I had to avoid add ons and tools, but now with a new machine I was hot on the Awards-Tool.
And got shocked!
Was this planned that the year of the Academy Awards is always -1 to the year they were given?
I respect the huge load of time spent to get all the data, but I am confused, when e. g. "Camelot" who got some Oscars in 1968 is listed in the database for all of them with "1967" | Posted: Topic Replies: 711, Topic Views: 80457 |

I'll give it a try.
Altough I don't exactly understand what connection you are searching for?
imo if there is a year behind the award, this should be the year when the award was given.
Maybe best to understand my worries: Check out any year of the Academy Awards in the tool
and compare this data with the Academy Awards on Wikipedia - one year later!
And you will find out that the data is the same | Posted: Topic Replies: 6, Topic Views: 3003 |
|
That's true in something like 95 % of the cases...
but there are some in between, where the year of the Award is the same as the year of the movie, and others sometimes are 2 or 3 years before.
So this way I think the assumption goes wrong that way:
When the headline says "Academy Award (19XX)"
The year in brackets should show the year of the Awards, not of the movie. Doesn't it? | Posted: Topic Replies: 6, Topic Views: 3003 |

That looks as what I was looking for. I'll give it a try

Maybe I am the only one who has a load of own recordings, but quite sure I am not.
While working on the database for some days I had to recognized, that for a load of them I never checked the cover size and at least for the ones I just found this out, it was a huge load to reduce the size to 500 pixels width. Some of them "only" were about 750 pixels, but I even had some original scans with something like 1200 pixels...
But how many covers are there still in my collection needing much too much space with the wrong size?
Or alternatively: Some I got from here are (horribly bad) pictures found "anywhere" online before contributing and might have just a size of 300 pixels.
So it is interesting to find out if there is available any toll/add on which checks the cover size of every single profile, in theory with the option to chose the search process for "too big", "too small" or even "both options"
Any idea if I only didn't find what's allready available? | Posted: Topic Replies: 7, Topic Views: 3467 |

Well, with my old computer I had to avoid too many add ons, but for about 6 months I have a new one, and so I care more than just a little bit about awards, too.
So the Awards-Tool is great stuff. Respect for the ones who did all the data.
So far I am mostly on the Academy Award, quite sure the other awards will be kind of "interesting" later, too, but the Oscar might cost me a lot of time.
So now using the tool with it's database, I got a shock!
Practically ALL Oscars are in the database with one year to early!
E. g. "Asphalt-Cowboy" (OT: "Midnight Cowboy") recieved several Oscars at the Academy Awards in 1970 - but they are all listed in the tool with 1969.
Am I the first one who recognized this?
If not: Do you care about that?
I do for one simple reason: Academy Awards are always around the beginning of April. And now - in case of Asphalt-Cowboy - I have to ask, how a movie could be honored in the beginning of April when it started at cinema at the end of May? | Posted: Topic Replies: 6, Topic Views: 3003 |

Sorry for the late answer... don't know how this happened, but I checked "subsribe" before releasing the thread - and never got any info.
Well, I decided to avoid installation of further tools... I do it the way with new IDs
And I mostly don't need any Alt. Version as most of the profiles I needed this for "only" exist with the ID of former Windows | Posted: Topic Replies: 8, Topic Views: 4332 |
|
For quite some time I didn't want to do kind of child profiles with Alt. ID if there are several movies on one disc. Meanwhile I changed and started to do.... but it was shocking to find out, that on my new PC (now with Win11) the DiscIDs of the same Discs I created the profiles with Win8.5 (or even XP) no are different:
Example:
Win8.5
BB66DADD24A03E01 [FILMPERLEN_DER_60ER_DISC5]
Win11
66EECD4F1DDD7582 [FILMPERLEN_DER_60ER_DISC5]
Is this something known? Could I do anything with Windows 11 that it still reads the IDs the same way the former version did? | Posted: Topic Replies: 8, Topic Views: 4332 |
