Hmmm ... The only thing that stands out is that they are running MariaDB rather than MySQL ...  http://surfeur51.esy.es/phpdvdprofiler/index.php?action=info

I haven't any experience with that ... the webpages seem to indicate that it is drop-in compatible ...

I'll explore some more ...

Hi Yves, welcome to the party  :)

That ls a little ... discomfiting. I'll have to review how the program stores data; for at least some fields it automatically translates "special" characters into their equivalent HTML characters to try to prevent this sort of thing.

Would it be possible for you to make your XML file available to me for testing (un-edited, please) to see if I can reproduce the problem?

Cheers!

Announcements / New localities.xod file
« on: December 07, 2013, 07:37:37 PM »
As DJ pointed out, there is a new localities.xod file, which contains the ratings. It has changed the rating system for Spain.

PHPDVDProfiles will apply the new rating system if you place the new localities.xod file (that exact, case-sensitive name) into the same directory that you put your XML file, and run an update. I don't think it will require that any profiles have changed, but it will definitely update if at least one has any change at all.

Yes, the most recent version of the software is here. I know that Andy isn't as quite as responsive to registration requests these days, but I'm more than happy to assist here in the interim, if Karsten doesn't mind ...

Hi Marie,

The problem is that your jpgraph directory has gone missing.

Your localsiteconfig.php contains the $GDFontPathOverride variable, which means that we had once done testing to find fonts for you. The directory it specifies indicates that you had jpgraph installed inside your main phpdvdprofiler directory (which is fine, of course).

Sadly, that directory is no longer there (or more precisely, the webserver can see no such directory there - it could be there with no permissions for the webserver to read it)

Perhaps Sébastien has been cleaning up and removed a perceived duplicate directory? I don't see it up a level ("beside" the phpdvdprofiler directory) either, so likely asking Sébastien is the way to go here.

Sorry I couldn't be more help ...

FredLooks, or anyone else who knows.

There is a Misc. section on the right that includes IMDb.

Is it possible to add a Wikipeida link.  I very much enjoy the large amount of information that wikipedia has and the numerous segways to other information.

For example, if i was looking at the move "I Am Legend" by "Will Smith" the link would be
Code: [Select]
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/I_Am_Legend

If you don't want to deal with this could you point me in the right direction ..

Thanks

Actually, the windows program allows you to specify links in a number of subject areas relating to each Movie. These links are exported to the XML, and I put them into that area of the profile. You can see this on, for example, this Return of the Jedi profile. That's a rather extreme case, other profiles have far fewer links ... so you could put wikipedia entries into the windows program and they would be reflected in the phpdvdprofiler display.

well, rather than changing siteconfig.php (which is over-written on every release), you could simply put that code you suggested (require_once and all) into localsiteconfig.php, which is the file that is guaranteed not to be over-written. [global.php includes siteconfig.php and then includes localsiteconfig.php to override the defaults]

[not directed at you, Dsig, but to others wanting to "play"):
If localsiteconfig.php doesn't exist, it should, so create one (with <?php at the first line and ?> as the last line) and stick this code in there. In particular, the values for your database name and username and password, as well as any configuration values that differ from siteconfig.php should be in there. That will make installation of a new release easy-peasy, assuming you haven't hacked on the rest of the code.

If you have, then you likely don't need me telling you how to go about your business :laugh:

1) Is there the ability to 'page' the collection listing.  Would be much faster especially when dealing remotely or even by cell phone.

You mean having only a limited number of movies on the laft hand side? Like mine http://doena-soft.de/phpdvdprofiler_en/ ?

If so, check the localsiteconfig.php for the $TitlesPerPage parameter.

This can also be changed dynamically by clicking on the word "for" in the upper-left frame, between the two combo-boxes...

Fred, I finally got the time to install this and I have to say I am very impressed .. it looks very nice.  I am very sad that it looks like there wont be much for me to hack :)
Oh, I expect you'll find something :)

Import:
During the import I got several of the following .. (about 50-60 of these).  Where does the "ID" come from?

collection.xml: Profile IDs must not be blank. Profile #1971
The ID is the ordinal of the profile in the XML file. By that I mean that the first one is #1, second #2, etc. For the most part, Profiles are stored in ID order in the XML file.

Quote
I also got the following .. In all cases (41) the boxsets did have children

Bad Boxsets: profiles saying they contain children when the children are absent from the collection
Bad Boxset: The Virginian: The Complete First Season (011301649454)
...
...
Total number of incorrect Box Set entries removed: 50
Number of incorrect Box Set profiles modified: 41
Sometimes the Box-children fields and the profiles don't match up. Generally a db issue, as you discovered. If it persists, it means that the named profiles have a number of child profiles listed, and the child profiles aren't in the XML collection. Simply going into the boxset menu in the windows program for the afflicted profile generally solves it ...

Site Statistics
Lots of great information, but under a lot of the headings, for example table with Last 12 Months etc, there appears to be "button" locations.  But there is no image and unable to 'click'

Also, the 'years' appear to be hyper links but when i click on them nothing happens.
This will all make sense when the jpgraph stuff works :)  If you look at my site, you can see that the clickable links make new graphs appear....

Watched Statistics
When this page (on the right) comes up I get 4 sections with

Warning: include(../jpgraph/srcjpgraph.php) [<a href='function.include'>function.include[/url]]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in C:\wamp\www\phpdvdprofiler\ws.php on line 217

My guess is that this is something to do with my install of jpgraph but i am not able 'yet' to see what it is.  I am still looking and probably just overlooking it.

Yup, you need a trailing '/' (as you discovered yourself) and the path is relative to the phpdvdprofiler directory. So if you put jpgraph "into" the phpdvdprofiler directory, then $jpgraphlocation = "jpgraph/src/"; should work. It should point to the directory containing jpgraph.php

Keep me posted

Yeah, ken went to a different format, distinguishing between locales and countries. I added support for that in the last release. Unless you have customized the code on your site, you should just be able to overwrite your existing code with the latest release... The latest is 3.8.1.0, and you are 1 release back at 3.8.0.0...
