Software and app updates related to 'search as you type' (page 3)

If you are adding most of your movies “By Title”, then this will be a huge time-saver.

Here’s how the new “Search-As-You-Type” feature works:

1. In the Add Movies Automatically screen, just start typing the first letters of the title you want to add.
2. While typing, a drop-down list will appear, showing the five most popular titles that match,
   including the release year and a small thumbnail image.
3. For recent / popular movies, it usually takes only 2 or 3 letters before it shows up.
   For older or less popular movies, type a few more letters.
4. Once you see your movie appear, use the arrow keys to select it, then hit Enter.
5. Then under Search Results, that exact movie will be listed, automatically Previewed on the right.
6. Click the Add Selected button to add it to your database.

Improvements:

• Cloud Syncing: Now does up to 5 retries when a sync action fails because of a temporary connection problem.
• Edit Movie: Improved “search as you type” behaviour of search boxes for adding cast and crew.
• Dark Skin: active window now has a light grey border, making it stand out more when windows overlap.

Fixed:

• Add Automatically: adding a checked result would sometimes uncheck a result from another search in the queue.
• Main Screen / Two Panel Mode: selection status text would sometimes show an invalid text when no movies were showing in the list.
• Edit Multiple: F8 to clear didn’t work for memo fields like Plot and Notes.
• Edit Multiple: F8 in Movie format field would also clear Disc format field of first disc.
• Main Screen: “Edit in List” feature made it seem like “Extra Features” could be edited but it shouldn’t be editable.
