Had to use My movies Pro before the Dvd-profiler for Android arrived. Now i need to migrate from My Movies and back to Dvd profiler. Do i have to scan all my movies again? I have a old database for dvd profiler but it is incomplete.

If My Movies can create CSV output, you might be able to use BulkEdit CSV Import (custom option). If you want to try it and want my advice, just create a small sample file and paste it into this thread - all I need to see is the header and a couple of records.

Oh, I almost forgot: If you have no personal info, such as purchase info, notes, reviews, etc. then it is even easier. Just use My Movies to export a list of the UPCs in a text file, and DVDP can bulk load them quickly.

The best approach is to segment the lists by "locality" (country for which the movie rating is valid) and then use an editor to append the country code to the UPC. (E.g. Canada is ".3", Japan is ".17"). You can get the whole list on the DVDP Wiki I think.
Thanks for your support.
