[DVDFolks] [ANNOUNCE] Version 0.31

Maybe this is of some sort of help..., maybe you were aware of it already...

Roger Taylor doesn't have two roles, this is (should be) two Roger Taylors.
Roger Taylor of Queen and Roger Taylor of Duran Duran. Just for some reason
IMDb doesn't use the I and II here.

So, in the end, this could be a problem ONLY with Live Aid (I came across
this too). Well, In 80 Days Around The World is a candidate as well, I
suppose. ...and it's lucky, for DDFolks that it only happens at the very
bottom of the cast list :D

Good luck.

OK - I've tracked down cause of the error, and it because Roger Taylor has
two (2) roles, and instead of a combined listing, he is listed twice (once
for each role). This is something I was going to handle when I did TV shows
proper, but I'll see if I can whip something up.

Obviously I'll now be using Live Aid as a test-bed to see if it works, but
this is going to be quite an intensive operation to perform (cross/checking
each and every name against the entire cast entered so far), and I want to
stress test it (and the program in general in fact).

The 1956 version of Around the World in 80 days has 1200 listed cast IIRC.
Does anyone know of anything longer [asks, but isn't sure he wants to know
the answer...]
