How do you delete a "direct link" from an actor card. I've pulled up the "add/edit actor" window, but there is only a "webpage" link, not a "direct link". Several of my actors have the wrong Imdb direct link, and are importing different actors. |

Hello, I was just wondering if you had forgotten to include a way to delete a "direct link" from and actor card. I get a lot of wrong actors downloaded because of the same names, but I cant change the direct links. I have to delete each actor and add them again manually. |

It's not directly related to the direct link. I have recognized that the internal actor's id column doesn't have the unique flag. As I have tested you can exchange these wrong (in my case they were doubled) id by opening the database directly with MS Access. Although, in next release Ale should correct this bug. |

That's good to know, but I don't use ms access and I don't want to use another program to fix something that XMM should take care of itself. Thank you for an giving me an option though. |

Its actually very nice that EMM is built on a standard Microsoft Access database as you can also build your own specialized queries on it or use it as a backend for any other front end for personal customization.:-) But it will be added soon I am sure, JDommi was just letting you know of another way to play with it :-) Just a word of warning though, if you open it with any version of ACCESS and it asks you to convert it, say NO. Most databases are version specific and I "think" this is built on a 2007 version now?
