hi guys, thanks for the comments, it gives me the motivation to keep the site going

the hazy drunken mist from new year's partying has almost gone, so i should hopefully be adding a few new features to the site soon!

balix, i have tried many ways to get this data in an intelligent way, but its pretty impossible without some manual intervention - but i may have an idea so watch this space!!

cheers all

Balix, i have managed to get the info you want for each release - i am able to pull out the region, rip source, format and audio type (if/when available). However, how and where should i display all this?!

If i add up to another 4 bullet points for each film, its gonna get more bloated than Dawn French on a pie binge. I could have collapsable divs that hide the info before you click it, but i think it might all get a bit confusing.

Any ideas most appreciated! Oh, and i found a bug with the way the top films were being counted so it wasnt accurate - i have blitzed that and cleaned it up, so those will start to populate properly from now on

Cheers

hi all, after a lot of requests, i have plugged into opensubtitles so, in the links section for each movie there is now a "Subtitles" link which points to a load of .srt files.

there is a whole range of subtitle languages available, so hopefully that will help you out.

more to come...

hi all, well pretty much the #1 thing people have contacted us about is to add more specific individual release information such as the rip's language, source etc...

well, good news! for all releases from about 3 months ago, this information has been captured, and its now shown in a tab format on the main pages (just under the trailers):



its also shown on the individual film info pages. i hope this improves the experience for you all, and saves you some bandwidth

as always, let me know if you think of something you want.

Hi all,

Well the size of this job was bigger than Dawn French at Christmas, but its finally done

We have back populated pretty much all the attributes for releases up to 240 days old. There was over 10,000 updates, so the days of downloading a film in the wrong language should be finished!!

Enjoy!

For what its worth, I think the site looks nice and professional.
