Starting with version 6.0 All My Movies is able to work in the network.
It means you can share your movie database file in your local network
and open it from several computers simultaneously. Here are some
points for better understanding how the network mode works.
1. You can add new movies from the several computers simultaneously,
but you can’t see the new movies added from other computers until you
reopen the database. We have added a special key shortcut CTRL-ALT-R
for a quick database refresh. So, press CTRL-ALT-R keys to see all
the changes made from other computers.
2. When the same movie is edited from several computers at once, the
database will keep only those changes that were made the latest. In this case, you
won’t be notified about the collision.
3. When you try to edit a movie record that was just deleted from
another computer, your changes will not be saved and you’ll get a
warning message.
4. By default, the database will be opened in full (i.e. read and edit)
access mode from every computer in your network. It is possible to
set the password for the database changes in the Preferences (menu
item Tools-Preferences), "Expert options" tab. With this protection
enabled, your database will be opened in read-only mode. You can
protect your database from unauthorized changes in that way.
To share the database in your network, just place the database file
to some network shared folder. You can use menu item
"Database-Backup..." for placing the database file in the folder selected.
