News & updates tagged 'sync'

Fixed:

• Sync with CLZ Cloud/Update from Core: Sometimes didn’t download all covers
• Edit Screen: The order of Month/Day would sometimes be wrong (i.e. if your phone was set to German)
• Add Movies: Add button could not be switched back to “In Collection” (if set to a different one)

Thanks to your reports we’ve been able to fix a problem with sortnames when adding new cast/crew members to your movies!

Fixed:

• Cast/Crew: adding a cast or crew member by searching Core, the system would not add the sortname correctly.
• Fixed some stability issues in the down sync from CLZ Cloud.

Thanks to all who reported the bugs!

In this update, we try to tackle a problem that we often see in our support system:

Users changing phones without updating their CLZ Cloud first. Or even worse, without even having a CLZ Account yet.
Which of course cause data loss (and a lot of sadness).

So in this version, we are trying to create more awareness of:

1. The importance of creating a CLZ Account, so that you can Sync with CLZ Cloud.
2. The importance of keeping your CLZ Cloud up-to-date by actually Syncing with CLZ Cloud.

New Sync button in main screen

When not in sync with CLZ Cloud, a new Sync button will appear on the main screen, above the Add button. This way you will always know if there are still items to sync up to CLZ Cloud or down from CLZ Cloud (even when you use auto-sync).

(Don’t like this button? In the Settings screen, switch OFF the setting that says “Show on-screen sync button”)

New “Sync with Cloud!” bar when not logged in

When using the app while not logged in to a CLZ Account, a new bar will appear at the bottom of the main screen that says “Sync to CLZ Cloud for an online backup”.
Hopefully that will help prevent future data loss.

(Don’t like this bar? In the Settings screen, switch OFF the setting that says “Show backup suggestion bar”)

New 5-movie “Demo Mode” for new users

For new users who just downloaded the app, we introduced a new “Demo Mode” that lets you add 5 movies before committing to the actual 7-day free trial subscription.

Fixed on Android:

• Edit Comic: When you’ve edited something, and you tapped “Next”, it would skip an item.

The CLZ development team has just finished a huge project, something we have been working on for several months: the ability to modify a movie’s cast and crew lists, for both the Movie Connect web-based software and the CLZ Movies mobile app.

Of course, your Movie Collector desktop software has allowed you to modify your cast and crew lists for many many years. But still, the project we just completed has resulted in a big v23.3 update for Movie Collector too, which introduces THREE new features:

• Cloud-sync your customized cast and crew lists to the CLZ Cloud and the CLZ Movies mobile app
• A quicker and easier way to add new cast and crew members, by searching our Core lists
• Simplified Sort Name editing for all pick list entries

The entire CLZ development team has been working on this major feature for several months. A huge project that we have been postponing for many years, because of the complexity and the enormous amount of work. But today we can finally go public with it, resulting in a major update for the Movie Connect web-based software:

As of today, it is finally possible to modify the CAST and CREW lists of your movie entries!
Also, it is now possible to sync those customized cast and crew lists to the CLZ Movies mobile app (requires CLZ Movies 8.1, also released today).
