I got huge doubts about the BY of the second one or if his credits on the IMDB are correct: Olaying a teen son on "Xena" when he was allready 23 years old might be possible, but as a "Lambeth Kid" in "Chaplin" when he allready was 30 sounds a little bit difficult. IF THIS SITE is correct, he looks young, but there is no credit how old he was when the foto was shot: https://www.tvmaze.com/people/98752/sam-holland | Posted: Topic Replies: 5756, Topic Views: 374206 |

According to BYs:
I am a little bit confused as imo for some actors the BYs wouldn't be neccessary if there would have been done a search for their common name before.
Just two examples:
"Anthony Holland (1920)" much more times credited as "Antony Holland"
and
"James Henrie (1993)" much more times credited as "Lorenzo James Henrie"
So which rule is to prefer in such cases? The common name or the BY? | Posted: Topic Replies: 168, Topic Views: 11060 |

As there are two actresses of the same name (1944/1978) the CLT can't help that much.
So after a load of research I got the following credits in my collection: Elizabeth Bennett Ghost Whisperer (Season 2.7) Castle (Season 1.7) Liberty Heights
Elizabeth Ann Bennett Heroes (Season 3.12) Bones (Season 9.20) The Dead Zone (1.4)

Quote: @Magmadrag:
I think it's a mistake not to do everything possible to fix the database. Even if at the moment the problem only manifests itself during export, it's not going to get better, but it might very well get worse.
I see you haven't uploaded you collection since March 30. Does that mean that upload doesn't work for you either? Does backup work without errors?
It is, of course, entirely up to you if you want to ignore this problem. I'm just concerned that you may be setting yourself up for a bigger problem further on.
First of all: Upload I do from time to time.... as you have been at my collection, you see the size. And this way the upload needs time. As I don't have the neccessity to show everybody all I bought for the last two months, the upload is not that relevant for me.
And according to the export problem: It is a couple of months ago, mabye one and a half years, when I was knee deep on solving this problem. And: EVERYTHING failed! Every solution caused more troubles than I had before. So what about if DJ Doena is right and it only depends on the old Win-32 Standard and the export is not possible as I got lots of foreign films with all those special characters? I'd like to say that there is nothing else left what it could be. Imagine spending 8 weeks, several hours a day, to find out, why the export doesn't work. And some of the solutions caused a database crush (inreperaible), made me un- and reinstalling profiler complete + creating a new database from a backup etc. etc. After all those troubles without any visible result and as anything else works quite perfect (you know that other users have problems with their database with much smaller collections) there IS nothing else I could try. According to the Win-32 Standard I had/have several "problems" or at least dislikes as some characters/special letters are available as they are included, others not as they are allready Win-64. Even tools have that problem on some special ways, and I had to learn, what doesn't work. So I only can ask: A cleaned up working database of kind of an extraordinary size works. Would you provoke another crush only for the export if you don't need that feature? | Posted: Topic Replies: 168, Topic Views: 11060 |

Frank Dux (BY 1932) (IMDB shows him as "Francis Dux") https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0245234/?ref_=ttfc_fc_cl_t31 actor of "Little Shop of Horrors", "Highlander" and a view others CLT only shows hin as "Francis" for several language versions of "La Comtesse de Hong Kong"
but as he domniats as "Frank" (16/151) in CLT against "Francis" (1/14) a BY might be the only chance to separate him from
Frank Dux (BY unknown) https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0245235/?ref_=tt_cl_t_1 appearing in a view Martial Arts movies and in the docu "Put Up Your Dux"

For the one from "Under Siege" only the imdb-link is correct, the other two links fit another musician. The one from "Under Siege" has his own site where the movie is mentioned and that he is the brother of the director: https://chicagocatz.com/richie-davis/
And so his birthyear is wrong, too, as he is born on December 30, 1957 https://www.discogs.com/artist/4388043-Richie-Davis-3 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richie_Davis_(musician) | Posted: Topic Replies: 5756, Topic Views: 374206 |

@GSyren: Nice Idea but there is missing "the other part", too: If the production year is before the BY.... ;-) | Posted: Topic Replies: 168, Topic Views: 11060 |

It's simply calculation
"If Production Year < Birthyear" then any "alarm" to check the cast/crew with the questionable birthyear.
Not really possible that a movie produced e. g. 1999 includes cast born 2004
That's all thought | Posted: Topic Replies: 168, Topic Views: 11060 |

I can ensure you, as long as there is data in the dummy profile, it doesn't matter if it is owned, ordered or wishlist. There are a few profiles in my wishlist, and even they are part of the update process.
This way I'd like to say that for the program it doesn't matter where the cast & crew is to find in a profile. As soon as they are anywhere without a BY, they became part of the ACTORS/CREW files.
Not sure if this thought could be integrated in THIS tool or needs another one: You remember a few posts before I had the death date issue. Well, there's the same one with birthyears: I found actors with a BY listed in movies which were produced several years before they were born. But I think this check might need another tool, as I got no logically idea how this issue has any connection to the problem I started this thread for.
Not importand but anyhow confusing and funny: To find out if the actors listed in the profiles are the ones with the right BY, I have to check a lot at the IMDB. And today I reached an actress, allready passed away in 1998, and they list several movies "in planning" up to 2026. I can't imagine that she has been kind of mummified and now only plays dead corpse. | Posted: Topic Replies: 168, Topic Views: 11060 |

I used to but only for main people. There is a Kevin Smith that used to play Ares on Xena: Warrior Princess and then there is the Jersey guy. But not for any random John Smith I have never heard of and will never look up anyway.
Well, as long as they are the ones with accepted/released Birthyears I think that's neccessary. Or what do we have the BYs for, if nobody cares about their use? | Posted: Topic Replies: 168, Topic Views: 11060 |
