I don't understand why it isn't working for me.

I've uploaded the file twice now (localsiteconfig.php) and have applied the update twice on the web site. It goes through and produces all the messages on the screen but this change is never being applied.

I know I haven't updated the collection.xml so its possible I suppose that since that hasn't cahnged it doesn't apply any changes.

It will have to wait until shatterday and I'll load up a new collection file and try again.

as a different query - I haven't loaded the full cover images, only the small images, since I couldn't see where you would see large covers anyway within the program?

Am I just being blind? Or am I missing something..?

That's the thing. You don't see where you can click to see the bigger images, because they are not there

Try clicking the images in the detail view of the DVD, or, the "Front Cover Gallery" option from the sliding menu on my site

That isn't even neccessary, just the new localsiteconfig.php and then reload the image should do the trick.
Only thing I could think of right now where to create a second user, just to see what happens then.

the other thing to do to make watched stats and the sig strips load quicker is in on your phpdvdprofiler web server create a directory called say 'imagecache' and change the permissions to 777 (ok, that's really bad but no real issue here). The in localsiteconfig.php set $imagecachedir to 'imagecache/'. It will then cache really tiny thumbnails rather than generating them everytime they are required. It will regenerate them if the original file is newer than the tiny thumbnail.

Is that folder getting cleaned once in a while? Maybe you could add in the update procedure something to empty the folder before re-generating the static sig strip?

This is the section of my localsiteconfig

// 'ME' configuration
// This lot control what the watched stats 'me' functionality does.
$me_w = 61;
$me_h = 85;
$me_num = 5;
$me_bgcol = "C8C8C8";
$me_font = "arial.ttf";
$me_fontcol = "000000";
$me_fontsize = 10;
$me_hborder = 3;
$me_wborder = 6;
$me_padding = 6;
$me_tmsg = "What #NAME#'s Watched Recently.";
$me_bmsg = "As of #DATE#";
$me_talign = "c";
$me_balign = "l";
$me_namelist = "";
$me_qual = 70;

This is what I'm doing. And there are a whole load of small files there - all 3k.. And one big file paul.jpg which is 70k.

I've tried deleting the large file to see if I get a smaller banner.. but..

@Paul:
The localsiteconfig.php on your machine has an entry for $profiles["Paul"] that sets quality=100. This overrides the $me_qual value =70 also in localsiteconfig.php

If you followed JohnDs installationguide you should find
$profiles = array (search exactly for that string)
somewhere in your localsiteconfig, make the adjustments there.
See Watched statistics roughly at the middle of the page.

The large files in the imagecache directory are only used if you you specify it in your dvdprofiler or whatever signature specifically.

For example as some forums don't allow dynamic images, you can't link directly to the ws.php script. This is ok to do here, but say thedvdforums.com don't allow it.

So, then you can do :-

[ a href="http://www.dvdaholic.me.uk/phpdvdprofiler/"][ img src="http://www.dvdaholic.me.uk/phpdvdprofiler/imagecache/dvdp.jpg" /]

remove the space after the [ (both places)

As for tidying up the imagecache, I can add some code to do that. I'll probably change it to just delete files over 30 days old, which should be enough
