Thanx for such a beautiful application - really a great help.

Though everything is perfect but i wonder if u can include two little tweaks

1 - Auto capitalization of Film Titles ( i.e - Scent of A Woman , How To Train Your Dragon)
2 - Sometimes i want to tag one film with more than one genre( volume or collection) as i have some of my personal genres (i.e - revenge, hitman) . But i think right now i can just add one film in one volume.

Thats all for now

1: Why do you want auto capitalization? If you get the movies from an internet database they should be correctly spelled.

2: Perhaps you should better use the real tag feature instead of volume or collection. You can define your own tags and then you can put as many tags as needed to every movie entry.

1. Moreover, I would like to emphasize that the capitalization of a title depends on the language used. In French, for instance, we don't capitalize every word, and the rules for proper capitalization are actually rather complex for this language. For instance, the french version of the title Scent of A Woman is either Parfum de femme or Le Temps d'un week-end (whether you consider the original Italian movie or the American remake): the first noun is capitalized but not the second, and this rule is also affected by the presence of a verb in the title (if I remember correctly)…

Therefore, would such a function be implemented, then it should come with a check box in the preferences dialog box to enable/disable it Wink
