| | Posted: | | | | Try adding http://fi.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kun_taivas_repe%C3%A4%C3%A4
Special characters (such as high ascii or unicode) need to be escaped. |

| | Posted: | | | | http://fi.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kun_taivas_repe%C3%A4%C3%A4 would be the link. Firefox does a good job of URL encoding - just visit the link and it will encode it for you.
Edit: Bah! Beat me to it while I made sure that version would be accepted. :D | | | | Invelos Software, Inc. Representative | | | | Last edited: by Ken Cole |

| | Posted: | | | | ^^ Yea that worked. I use Opera and it doesnt encode them, which is good in general use (as it would be a pain to copy/paste links in finnish forums otherwise  ) |

However, the links aren't tied to a specific profile. They're linked up by Production Year and Title or Original Title if that's set. So, add one link to "The Matrix" and it will be added to every variation - all 73 of them. O.o I don't think this is a good idea. Is this feature "english only" or will there be for example over 20 links to wikipedia for each language? We get a complete mess if everybody wants to link sites in there native language. Or will there be a filter in the next profiler? |

| | Posted: | | | | Well, first of all... fantastic update. The new website looks great! and the links feature is brilliant.
Are we able to add these links to DVD Profiler somehow? I'd love to be able to see these links in my software as I browse my collection and be able to click them from there (to launch in a browser) rather than have to browse them online (Just a personal preference)
And will the links show up in the online database? |

FYI, Links currently show on the "Upcoming DVDs" feature in DVD Profiler. Direct support for online links for DVDs in your collection is coming in version 3.5. Additionally, links are integrated into the upcoming DVD Profiler Online Plus. -Gerri | | | | Invelos Software, Inc. Representative |

| | Posted: | | | | There seems to be a bit of a bug if submitting links for stuff not in Owned. There's some angry looking (red) text that tells you that locks can't be set on stuff you don't have, but it still allows the link to be submitted. | | | | Adelaide Movie Buffs (info on special screenings, contests, bargains, etc. relevant to Adelaideans... and contests/bargains for other Aussies too!) |

| | Posted: | | | | Very nice! Like another metadatabase for info on our DVDs right at our fingertips in the program.  I was wondering if a new version of DVD Pro was in the works. Here are some palpable results. Good work Ken. |

However, should we add in director, because I know that occasionally there are two movies released in the same year, with the same original title. I know of one example, but I also know that sometimes direct-to-DVD companies will try to cash in on blockbusters, so they might interfere too. The example I know of (because I have one of these in my collection) is King of the Ants Ordinary guy pushed to breaking pointSome American football movie which doesn't appear to yet have a release. | | | | Adelaide Movie Buffs (info on special screenings, contests, bargains, etc. relevant to Adelaideans... and contests/bargains for other Aussies too!) |
