Let ed2kdump update entries already in mylist [OLD REQ]

Post by Elberet »

[split from Add "add to db"-function to ed2kdump - wahaha]

Mind if I take this thread over with a totally different suggestion that nearly fits the topic, tho? :P

I would be really happy if the ed2kdump was a little more intelligent when I paste hashes for files which are already in my mylist. This happens frequently when I move the first 10 files of a series somewhere and hash these files, then burn the completely downloaded series to DVD a few weeks later, hasing all files a second time.

The desired behaviour would be for ed2kdump to collect the hashes of all files which it already found in my mylist and mimic the mylist mass-update form on the result with the hashes of the skipped files pre-entered into the form's textarea. This would allow me to update the previously skipped files with a single click.

Alternatively: For each each file found in the db, show a checkbox in the ed2kdump result list and replace the mass-update's textarea with a "select all" checkbox. :)

I guess that's close to what has been discussed here:
Combined ed2kdump/massupdate feauture

I second that request. At the moment I update my DVDs and re-arrange series because I found some files to be crc unchecked or crc invalid. When I then dump the ed2ks of all those files the already downloaded files are already in db and will not be updated, and the new ones added. I then have to visit the anime entry in my mylist to enter the same info (storage, state etc.) while I update the files that were already in the db.
