why not provide the ability link through to these (or other, user-defined) sites, based on a field of the database (probably Title).

amazon also has an API which might be fun to integrate

apologies if this is a dumb suggestion or if it's been made before

Hi,

if you upload your collection via Online -> DVD Profiler Online -> Upload, you'll find a lot of links here.

Furthermore, you'll find a link to IMDb under Online -> Other Websites -> IMDb Search for this Title.

HTH,

I am guessing that 3.5 will have something of that sorts, because of the recently added online feature of adding Links to profiles.

Thanks. Didn't know that
Unfortunately, I can't use DVDprofiler at the moment due to lack of a Windows computer.

I'd like to see that, too.

For example:
imdb.com search for "Spiel mir das Lied vom Tod":
http://imdb.com/find?s=all&q=spiel+mir+das+lied+vom+tod&x=0&y=0
german.imdb.com search for "Spiel mir das Lied vom Tod":
http://german.imdb.com/find?s=all&q=spiel+mir+das+lied+vom+tod&x=0&y=0

This is why I made the recommendation in the Profile Links forum, that Ken would only collect the IMDb number (e.g. tt1234567) and then built the IMDb link according to the users setting (for Profiler 3.5).

http://akas.imdb.com/find?s=all&q=spiel+mir+das+lied+vom+tod&x=0&y=0 would work for any localised title.

Thanks. Didn't know that

You can also add a button for the IMDb link by customizing any toolbar.  (Add or Remove Buttons > Customize > Commands > Online) Drag the IMDb icon to the toolbar where you want it.

You can also have the "IMDb Search for this title" link placed into your right-click menu. (right click in the collection list title area > Customize This Menu > Commands > Online) Drag the IMDb icon to the menu bar that will pop up that's called "ExpressBars SubMenu Editor."
