Carnac - What does it do?

<< < (3/7) > >>

struct:

Nice to see each of the sources listed in the dialog box after lookup info.  There needs to be an ability to do a multiple select here as each source contains some of the information, eg. rottentomatoes has a genre and critic rating, but wikipedia has editor.  given that you know what each source has available, why not a setting option for order of preference of source for the superset of fields available from all sources (think this is a riff on a rick.ca suggestion).

I silent update on a multiple select is really important for some (me :) ) I want to get the rotten tomatoes ratings, but that is it, for my couple of hundred movies.  I have most of everything else from pvd and don't want to over-write other fields.  I currently have no way of doing this, do I?

Would be good if you could describe a few of the near term goals for Carnac as there is clearly a lot that can/should be done on autoimport/rename/scrape and it may save a lot of posted suggestions till you get it up and going a bit stronger.  [This is on the assumption that it is going to do more than do a regex parse of the name, which is all it currently seems to do??]

Thanks

Just purchased the upgrade. Looking good so far.

I was wondering though, why the name Carnac? I was trying to come up with some kind of symbolic meaning related to this, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carnac but I can't think of any. So how did you come up with the name?

rick.ca:
It's Magnificent. ;)

Well that makes a lot more sense now. Can't believe I forgot about the Carson skit... oh and that it was the very next link in google under the one I looked at.
