| | Posted: | | | | Recently I noticed a difference in Crew credits between my local database and the online database.
The birth year for Peter Jackson was removed in the online database for a number of profiles (a valid change, because the one in the profile is a different Peter Jackson), but doing a refresh did not remove it locally.
A database repair did not solve this problem and I ended up changing the entries by hand.
Has anyone else had this problem as well, and is there a solution to this? |

It can be removed from the profile (so when someone downloads it after the update has been approved/released, the newly-downloaded profile will not contain the birth year), but not from our local databases. We need to do that ourselves. |

We need to do that ourselves. This is only correct if the BY gets removed, if it gets changed to another value it will download, thereby adding a new Cast/Crew member to your database. | | | It all seems so stupid, it makes me want to give up!
But why should I give up, when it all seems so stupid?
