Win32 Questions

[torben]

Hello,

I have a few questions about the Win32 version of Griffith:

1. How can I set the location of the Griffith DB? Background: I want to share the DB between my Desktop and Notebook via a network share. Is the data storage format compatible with the Linux version?

2. When will 0.6 be availabe for Win32?

3. Appearantly, the "By Collection" filter field is not updated when new collections are added. I had to restart Griffith to get it visible.


Keep up the good work

Greetings, Torben Nehmer

You can find griffith dir in My documents

If you want to use that database on Linux, remember to delete griffith.conf (it is not compatible) and (depending on what version of sqlite you use) convert griffith.gri, do something like this:

Code:

sqlite3 ~/.griffith/griffith.gri .dump | sqlite /tmp/griffith.gri && mv /tmp/griffith.gri ~/.griffith/

2. When will 0.6 be availabe for Win32?

soon, really

3. Appearantly, the "By Collection" filter field is not updated when new collections are added. I had to restart Griffith to get it visible.

fixed in 0.6

Hi,

first, thanks for your answer, only one thing is open:

> 1. How can I set the location of the Griffith DB? [...]

I want to share the DBs between two systems, which means that I'd like to put the DB on a SMB Share. Right now I'm using Unison to sync the DBs, works well, you just have to keep remember to sync after changes ;-).


Then I found another thing:

Can you add an alphabetical sort to the Volumen dropdowns? That would make using them much easier (I archive all my DVB recordings as MPEG4, which means I mostly use 4-6 movie-volumes).
