The title list in DVD Profiler?  Or what comes up on the screen when I try to do the update for my sig?  It does say that a profile must not be empty...but it has been doing that and still finishing the update..sometimes I've had to restart it a few times, but it would finish.  Now it just keeps stopping.

I did try loading the profile for the one it says is empty..still get the same thing and it still stops after so many.

I have no idea what the update settings are.  I haven't tried to change any of that stuff.  Hmm...where would I look for that stuff?

I meant in DVD profiler, the Invelos program. I think you would always see a difference between "filters" and "all", even right after clicking Clear All Filters. The numbers should be the same.

Load where? Does it give you a name which one is empty? Or you can't actually load it?


BTW, if you do indeed have one of thos empty damaged profiles, the cure is:
Create backup. Restore the backup but when asked what to restore choose "selected profiles" use that to "select all" and then unselect the one without a name showing (should be on top). I had this problem twice in the past...

There is two checkboxes on the page where you manually start the update, next to the username and password fields.

I just looked in the program, the numbers are the same there.

I meant I tired to upload it to the site where I have stuff for the banner.  It tells me the number of the profile that is empty.  I just exported it again and tried to upload it again. 

Hmm...ok.  I'll have to try that later.

Just tried it again...it's stopped sooner.  Sheesh.  I think I'm cursed.

It is likely best to correct the empty profile problem in the windows program - that appears to be an error that a database repair doesn't fix.

If the update process just stops without completing it usually means that  a time limit has been reached on the host. In that case, you should run the update again, this time ensuring that the "Complete Update will be performed" checkbox is not checked. if the checkbox is checked, the update deletes the entire database and starts from scratch. If the checkbox is not checked, then the update compares database entries against XML file pieces to try to only update profiles that have changed since the last update. In the case of recovering from a time limit error, that should effectively "skip" the entries already processed.

The message about profile ID's not being blank is only a warning, and was put in to help people fix the windows database - phpdvdprofiler won't try to import the record, and just skips to the next record.

Ok.  I've had it not finish at once before..but it keeps stopping after the same number.

Fix it in Profiler?  I'm not sure what to do for it because the profile is there.  I looked.

By "fix it in profiler" I meant to use Achim's instructions for removing the blank profile. It is characterized by having no information, specifically no ID, so the directions that he gave are the only known way of removing the profile. Since the ID (which includes the locality) is the primary key for the entire windows database, having a record without one may well do unknown likely bad things to the windows program. It will not affect phpdvdprofiler, as we ignore it.

What is the number at which it stops? There should be a difference in the number where it stops between the CompleteUpdate and a regular (not Complete) update that follows a CompleteUpdate. If there is not, then there may be another issue...

Ahh..ok.  I'll try that later..or tomorrow.

It was stopping at 1800..then when I tried again earlier today it stopped earlier..like 500...now it is stopping at 1900.

I tried doing what Achim said to fix the bad profile or empty one or whatever.  There weren't any with no names showing.  I went all through the list twice and all had names.

It still won't finish the update.  :(

Sorry to hear that, but at least is rules out now. I hope Karsten can help.

From the backup?  the export of xml files?

I'll have to see if I have something on the computer that I can zip stuff with.

I am pretty sure he means the XML for now.

Yes. And If you have Windows XP or higher you just have to select the file, right-click and choose Send To -> Compressed Folder

In those case Marie you can always upload your file on a file server like Megaupload and give the link to Karsten.
