Guess what! I found more things to do to BirthYearCheck! 

First of all, I replaced CEFSharp with WebView2. Among other things this means a much smaller download, and BirthYearCheck can now be run on both 32 bit and 64 bit machines. Anyone still running 32 bit Windows?

I also implemented AutoItX fully, so now the program will find DVD Profiler without having to know Profiler's main window title. And I styled the program a bit, but it's much less obvious here than in ProfilerMissing. Just trying to put a little bit of personal touch on my programs.

The search function in WebView2 is a bit different than in CefSharp, so please read the help file.

There are a couple of minor fixes as well.

BirthYearCheck 4.8
Refresh your browser if you still see the old version.

PS. If you already have BirthYearCheck installed, you might consider cleaning out that folder before copying in the new version, so you get rid of all the no longer needed CefSharp gunk.

Interesting. I will take a look at WebView2. If it solves the issues I had building CLTBoss,  I will jump on it, because that would make the tool run at least 10 times faster.
Thanks for your support.

That would be awesome! Fingers crossed!

BirthYearCheck 4.8.1

Fixed a bug that prevented the program to find some birth year entries in the birth year list.

BirthYearCheck 4.9.0



Since it's not possible to remove a birth year programatically, the previous solution was to change it to 9999, and let the user change it manually later. I never really liked that solution, so I created an alternative. Invalid entries can now be moved to their own list. When you're done with the main list, you can then tackle the profiles that need to be manually changed. This is a better work flow (for me, at least). The alternative 9999 does not appear in the list of possible birth years when you select Update birth year. That is unless you activate it in the Settings, if you really prefer to do it that way. Anyway, the help file has more info.



Also, as you can see in the screenshot, when a name is selected in Suspicious BYs, the name and function is shown in the window title. That's so you can see who you're looking for when you switch to the browser tab. Useful for those who are absent minded like me.

PS. When I post this, images from PostImages load extremely slowly. Hopefully this is just temporary, but if you don't see the two images immediately, have a bit of patience.

BirthYearCheck 4.10

No major updates, but a few improvements to make working with birth years a bit easier.

- For titles with episodes, if a person appears in more than one episode, the episodes are now shown on separate lines rather than on a single line. There is a limit to three episodes listed. If there are more, the fourth line will just say "[more]".

- There was a bug that prevented removal of items from the InvalidBYs grid if there were multiple persons listed for the same profile. Fixed.

- The items from InvaledBYs can now be saved as a flag set.

- When a row is clicked in SuspiciousBYs or InvaledBYs, the person's name is copied to the clipboad, making it easier to select them from the total cast/crew lists in DVD Profiler.

- The context menu in SuspiciousBYs had been updated with shortcuts for Search title in IMDb (Ctrl-S) and Invalid birth year (Ctrl-i).
