Version 3.3 Build 1 (November 23, 2009) Installation: - Movie Collector is now installed in /Applications instead of ~/Desktop - Need administrator credentials to install in /Applications folder Syncing Up TO Connect: - The following fields will now be uploaded from your local data when up-syncing AND are now editable as "user fields" in Connect : - Format - Genres - Fixed: Several situations could cause unnecessary update actions Upload your own cover images to Connect: - After syncing UP, you can now also upload the Cover Images for movies that don't have a cover image in Connect yet. - You can now also upload your own cover image on the Edit Movie page in Movie Collector Connect, using the Browse (or Choose File) and Upload buttons. Syncing Down FROM Connect, improvements to prevent unwanted changes to local data: - Extra "Are you sure?" question before syncing down. - New layout of Sync screen, with a BIG Upload button and a small Download button. - Syncing down will never clear fields / make fields empty - Syncing down will never update or add to existing local data values, EXCEPT when the local field is still empty. For example: no Genres will be added to existing lists, Titles, Studios, Release Dates, Running Time, etc.. will not be overwritten. - For Personal fields (purchase data, notes, rating, etc...) full syncing will be maintained. - Syncing down will never un-link movies Linking: - The question box "You have unlinked movies.
