At first, a big thank you Smiley

Although griffith is working nicely so far, I've got some wishes for the future...

1) since hdd's are getting bigger and cheeper these days, I'm ripping all my dvds to disk to avoid scratches and the like. I'd like to have a field to give the path to a movie on my hdd.

2) following 1), there should be a button to launch that file - the player-application should be selectable by the user.

3) make it possible to open more than one db at a time and be able to switch between them. Currently, I've got 400+ "normal" movies in my db, but besides them, there are also a lot of comedy-, music-, and adult-dvds. I don't want the latter to be available to the kids, so a pwd-protection of some kind would be nice.

4) make it possible to combine movies to a series/one movie, i.e. if you have "The Godfather" 1-3, make something like that:
   + The Godfather
           - The Godfather 1
           - The Godfather 2
           - The Godfather 3

Would be great for big series like the simpsons...

5) the "suggest a movie"-thingy should be configurable, i.e. movies per genre, play-time, age-rating, etc.

6) if a movie is available on disk and the path to it is given, read-out things like video-/audio-codec and resolution from it

7) I don't know, what the future holds, but I'd love it if griffith wouldn't be just for movies. I haven't found an application which can handle movies, games, music, books, etc in a quality like griffith is doing for movies only(not even for windows Wink - I'd pay for that...

Sorry if some of them were already mentioned, didn't have the time to read all threads.

cheers,

I agree with 3), 4) and 7) and I want to say that I can't use Griffith because it doesn't enable to add fields.  Angry
It's a pitty, because what I love in Griffith is the fact that it uses standard databases to store date, which enable the idea of other projects using the Griffith-created base for different treatments.  Cool
