Not loading as of today. Unless the DB has gotten sooooo big that my impatience overran it.

It loaded for me just now. Maybe there was a temporary glitch.

Tried again today. Loads in Safari, not in Chrome (under OS X). Loads in Chrome under Windows.
I was only trying Chrome on OS X before. I stand corrected.
Keep up the good work.

This is great! I had this same idea a few years ago, at least for my own discs.
I thought it would be easy...
- `makemkvcon backup disc:0` to a folder (I have my reasons)
- from that folder `makemkvcon mkv all file:backupfolder` to another folder
- type up data like you have for each Title created
- index it to the title number
- ...?
- NO PROFIT!! This is for my own Fair Use of my own discs!
EXCEPT... `makemkvcon mkv all disc:0` always numbers the titles in numerical order from the first `.mpls` to the last, then the `.m2ts` files. But if you try to `makemkvcon mkv all file:backupfolder`, the `.mpls` and `.m2ts` files are read in seemingly random order as the titles are numbered. Making my title-indexed data useless.
I just came to the conclusion that I'd need to do what you do--index my data to the filename the title is made from.
Long story short (too late), I'd be glad to contribute my data to your project and use the data from your project. However, I don't run Windows. Can I view the source code of your ImportBuddy program to make it easier for me to write something that will create the data files for my discs?

I just wanted to say thank you for this, especially for the Ken Burns Country series - I bought the Blu-ray this week and was looking for a way to see what tracks to rip. Your efforts are greatly appreciated!
EDIT: Apparently emojis are rendered ridiculous large, but it shows how grateful I am so I'm leaving it on.

Also wanted to appreciate your great work.
Just ripped House of the Dragon and renamed my files with the help of your database
I'll take a deeper look into that project, maybe this data can be used for some automation on my side.
And maybe I can also provide my collected infos as well. Looking forward to this

This is such a great resource. Thanks for your work! If you are still working on this (I know it's an older post) just a note, on The Office the Complete Series disc 10 seems to have "Fun Run" and "Launch Party" flipped. Had to watch a good chunk of Launch Party to be sure, Fun Run was easier to double check.

FYI. TheDiscDb search is broken. It has been broke for weeks. Appreciate the site, cheers!

I don't have any control over that site… but searching for things just worked for me. I had to type fairly slowly to not overrun whatever code is running the search box, but if I typed slow enough and searched, it seem to work.

Does anyone know if a site like this exists that allows user submissions? The DB for this is not very large, probably because it's maintained only by one person. And search is broken in Firefox.

The
About page mentions contribution guidelines.
I tried searching on that site with Firefox 133.0.3 and it is very funky. Letters would disappear then reappear a second or two later. It certainly doesn't seem to be working the way it should be.

Can we resurrect this thread? I think everyone now values the site itself as a resource. It would be super useful to see a 60 second video of someone using ImportBuddy. I have it cloned and running and all of that, but knowing what you are supposed to be doing with the MakeMkv gui and which titles you are interacting with is less than lavishly documented...
