Data Crow 3.5.1 | 36.21 Mb

Data Crow is a music (audio CD?s and mp3, ogg, flac, ape, .. files), book, software and movie cataloguer. It is platform independent and easy to install. Data Crow uses internet services like amazon.com, imdb.com and freedb.org to retrieve information. It?s platform-independent and is easy to use..Data Crow is an open source project developed by Robert Jan van der Waals. The project began in 2002 under the name “CD Library”. After further development, CD Library was deemed to be an obsolete name because it no longer reflected the program?s functionality and the project was renamed Data Crow.

For those who like to collect software, books, movies and or music, Data Crow can help! The program needs only a little input from you to register your collection. For example, registering a piece of software is as easy as inputting the software?s name or publisher and Data Crow retrieves the rest of the information from Amazon. For audio files, it?s even simpler! Just browse to the directory that contains the audio files and Data Crow reads and imports the embedded tag information (artist, album name, track name, and so on).

What’s New in version 3.5.1:

[Fixed]

* File size for file hashing now allows larger file sizes to be set. Setting the value to zero will now allow hashes to be created for files of any size.
* After doing a mass update of, for example, audio CD’s the artists and such were mentioned twice. After a restart everything returned to normal.
* The FPS for MPEG 1 and 2 movies was off by a factor of a thousand frames. There is no update performed on old information; the fix only works for newly imported movies.
* Timeout on online searches has been removed; the result was a not updated movie after 10 seconds without knowing the reason why. Especially true when performing and online search in combination with the “retrieve additional information for companies and persons” setting (which might actually take more then 10 seconds).
* Additional check for locked databases. Added a check for the settings of the database.
* IMDB import: some runtime of the imported run times are incorrect (of by tens of hours).
* Splitting the names of IMDB persons is incorrect. Only true for names ending with a number like so: Harry Potter (1).
* Sorting did not work correctly for the container module.
* Possible issue with scrolling in views (inverted up and down scrolling).
* Occasional error while performing an amazon online search: Incomplete trailing escape (%) pattern
* Barnes & Nobles online search was once again broken.

[Changed]

* The database no longer runs in a locked mode. This means you can start multiple sessions of Data Crow or run both the web server in console mode and the Data Crow GUI. Optimistic locking is used for database records (who ever saves the data overwrites data saved by the other user working on the same record).
* Changed the description retrieved for actors (better styled, removed boilerplate text).
* Removed boilerplate text for movies retrieved by Imdb.com and ofdb.de.
* Module wizard: from now on newly created modules can be reused within relationships. In previous versions a created module, such as a property module, could only be used once for a reference field. Now you can actually create one property module and use this module (and it’s data) for reference fields of multiple other modules.
