If we keep it seperate in folders as it is now, we ought to include a "master" list of what series there are...so people don't have to hunt all over the "t"...
Jim I think the part about No notices will be sent when the database is updated is not good - a post when a file is updated would be good as everbody will like...
Roger Yes, they will, was that show in Otter's database? If not, we'll have to create a log and import it into it. I've been on the phone for about 1 1/2...
"post 'em if you get em" :-) My take is sure... if you have the data (almost any format) that you researched I'd be happy to (help) convert them into the...
Funny thing i was also in a 1 1/2 hour phone call this evening and the point was brought up that the "core" otter series database hasn't been updated in almost...
Here is a possible situation: "Current" master database has a series with 5 shows. Log update comes in from a user with 4 entries. Normally it would be safe...
Just a side note... I've gotten a lot of ideas for otter utilites and options and if this time goes anywhere I think we should take care not to give the...
First off, let me thank Jim (and everyone else) for inviting me along for the ride. I'm always childishly happy to find that someone out there is disposed to...
Hello testers! I agree with Alan, there needs to be a way to distinguise between whether a series or episode exists in MP3 format or some other. I believe...
Welcome to the new users..Don't worry about just lurking. The Have Fun of the other group applies here, too. (otter) is the directory you made and copied...
... The instructions on how to import logs doesn't seem to work for me. I have imported a new log into my copy of the database, it shows up in the 'log'...
For the record... the problem here was Jim was running the Defender version and the instructions are for the centepede version. In case anyone sees a similar...
Hello All. What you do to import a log is open Otter and click on 'files' then select the drive and then the folder where the log.txt is. Highlight it. Then at...
Ok folks, time to start earning your keep. If you already have Otter installed on your computer, maker sure it is the Defender version. Let's start by checking...
Hello all, Maybe you should d/l what I start, add your stuff, u/d under your name and I'll incorporate into one file. if that makes any sense. Jim B...
Jim, from a quick look it looks like you did a lot of work just renaming the "the"s. There are still a few out there, The Weird Circle and The (something...
Hello, I have e-mailed you the zip file of 590+ . I don't think that when you import a text file into your database, that it wipes out what changes you've...
Got the file, thanks. It has 3 options when the series exists... replace the entire series log add and update episodes add and leave existing stuff alone. I'll...
Hello All, If you have added new logs to your copy of Otter, please upload them to the Otter database. We need as many as possible before we go live. Jim B...

Hi Gang Been working a little with Otter and I ran into a little problem When you click on files to see the files on your hard drive and after all the files...
Roger, I have never run into this problem. Let's wait to see if our techie guy has an answer, if not, We'll put our heads together and see if we can come up...
Looks pretty good. There might be a little discrepency about whether how to import/export are seperate files or included later. Probably good reasons to keep...
