| | Posted: | | | | I'm a newbie to this and my old brain isn't what it used to be, so I just wanted to be sure what link(s) I need to click on to get the photos to use with my database.
I am using DVD Profiler 3.5.1.
Thanks for any help and to the peeps who have put in all the hard work. | | | | Cecil was a caterpillar. Cecil was my friend. |

| | Posted: | | | | Hiya DarklyNoon,
I'm not sure which links I need for the most up to date files, or if there are different files to choose from. A couple I tried it said the file was invalid or removed.
Also, I'm not sure which files work with v3.5 as I read something about a different format.
So do I need V4 and all updates, or just one update. And is V4 still ok to use with Profiler v3.5?
I'll follow the step by step instructions to get them in my database. I think I'm ok with that.
Thanks for any help. | | | | Cecil was a caterpillar. Cecil was my friend. |

| | Posted: | | | | V4 is in an older format, but it can still be imported. I also have a list of monthly updates since july 2008. Apply those after the v4 database. You can download them at www.chriskepolis.be/headshots.htm. There are also other updates available in several posts in this topic. Be aware some of the updates introduce birthyears which are not allowed. | | | View my collection at http://www.chriskepolis.be/home/dvd.htm

| | Posted: | | | | That's perfect! Many thanks.  I'm also wondering if there is a way to take just the photos needed for the way my DB is set up? For example, I only really want photos of the Director and four main actors of each title, as that is what I have displayed. That will also cut the size and loading/saving times of my profiles. I realise some actors will 'crossover' to other titles, so more than four will have pictures available, but that doesn't really matter. I just wanted to avoid having oodles of headshots that were unnecessary for my own personal database. This is how I have mine set-up to get an idea of what I mean:  | | | | Cecil was a caterpillar.

Well, you can delete actors from your list that aren't in any movie. Even if there is a headshot present for them. Use the "Repair database" under "Tools"-> "Options". By default, unused actors with a headshot are preserved during repair, but you can uncheck the relevant tickbox. Just use this after all the uploading as mentioned before. That may not cover your "limit to 4" requirement, but it will remove the superfluous ones. You collection isn't small but then again not as large as many others, so the purging will have an impact. Just remember, Your next title may need the headshots you just threw away. So unless disk size is really an issue for you, you might want to think this over... | | | Eric

| | Posted: | | | | Hello all, I moved the headshot updates to my private webspace, which should provide easier downloading than the free sharing sites. You can get them here. I just added the februari update. Over half the images were provided by gardibolt for which many thanks. | | | View my collection at http://www.chriskepolis.be/home/dvd.htm

| | Posted: | | | | Johnny Williams the actor has a picture of John Williams the composer. Pretty sure it's from the latest headshot file. |

I do indeed have an incorrect image for Johnny Williams in my database. I did a restore however of the februari update in an empty database, and Johnny Williams is not in it. So I have no idea were it comes from. I'll make sure the correct image will be included in the next update. | | | View my collection at http://www.chriskepolis.be/home/dvd.htm
