I have it working...
Seems to be running smoothly. I do have 1 suggestion... if you can work it out.

I love that it is ignoring Season Indicators for TV Series now... but is there any way you can make it year specific... where it will only show up on the profile for the year it won... fight now it shows up on every profile for the TV Show you have with the year next to it.

did I make any sense there?

I just noticed something else... but don't know if there is anything you can do about this one.

I own the set...
Alien Nation: The Complete Series. Since it is ignoring the Season indicator I am getting the awards for the Feature Movie it was based on.

Unless of course you are able to somehow fall back on the production year... I don't think there is too much you can do about it.

BTW... it is just a small inconvenience to a great update!

The problem here is, that in the profile the earliest production year is entered for the season. The awards could be the following year for a last year's episode.
Also the range of years is necessary for film awards.
I could link it for example, that when genre "Television" is assigned, only the production year is searched. But it could also be a TV movie, which could result in missing awards.

Yeah... I figured it would be confusing (to say the least) to get it all worked out. that's why I said I don't know if it is possible.

but like I said... great update!

Unless I'm completely blind, which is entirely 100% possible, I can't find a beta link anywhere on your site Tom.

It's on the upper left side. The link which says "CCViewer Plugin v1.1 Beta".

Simply drag & drop the window anywhere on the layout you like. The cursor will change depending which kind of docking the drop will result in.

Addressed issues:
- layout changing problem
- it should now only open the award window either when it was saved in the layout or when View->Awards is called
- Season indicators for TV boxsets are ignored

I am not sure about the difference between the first two items, but after changing the layout and then going back to the one with the Plugin it worked again right away, without having that pesky blue background at first.

Much appreciated. Thanks Tom!

Odd.. I couldn't see it yesterday when I posted. Even after a cache refresh.. Oh well! Guess I just learned that my ISP has a proxy!

I like the plugin but ..... Everytime I exit DVD profiler and restart the configured awards windows does not function just sohws blank - going into the view awards menu and creating a new one sets it up again however sometimes need to reselect the database. Using 1.1 beta and the 3.0.3 1136 of DVDP. Does not seem to matter where the window is floating or docked to one of the other panels. Any ideas anybody. Reloading layout causes the same problem

That is strange. 1.1beta works quite alright for me, although I had to select the again once.

Is it possible that something went wrong during installation?

Is this the first time you installed the plugin? I think some people needed to manually register the dll.

That it sometimes forgets the database also happens to me sometimes, but I do not know why yet.
And I could also reproduce your other problem. But it seems only happens, when the Awards are not grouped with other panels. I.e. if it is a tab, it works. If it is a stand-alone panel, it does not work. I am not sure, if this is an error on my part or a bug in the plugin API.

Correction: It does not seem to depend on if it's a stand-alone panel or not. I do not know when it happens yet. But it seems to happen this way under specific circumstances
