There's something bizarrely wrong with the titles (the HTML titles, normally shown in browser address bars) of the pages such as http://tasvideos.org/movies.cgi?id=1234,1235,1236 where multiple movies are specified in the same URL. Spaces seem to be inserted in the wrong locations in the title, making the numbers hard to read.

Minor profile bug: Submissions listed as "judging underway" are not counted in the submission section in an user's profile. For example, in my profile, it currently states I have submitted 6 movies when I have actually submitted 7. It also displays 0 waiting submissions, even though I have one submission waiting for judgement in the workbench.

I noticed a little problem with how the player points are calculated: When somebody obsoletes his own run, his player points will drop, because the new movie is not rated immediately.
Scrimpeh's player points just dropped from 203.89 to 121.13, when his new MSX Castlevania run got published: [1797] MSX Vampire Killer by scrimpeh in 17:02.65.
I can't access frontpage. Nevermind, it's working now.

The description of recommended movies on the front page appear to have been broken by the addition of streaming video icons (whatever you call the pictures for archive.org, youtube, etc).

Thanks for fixing this, whoever is responsible.
Agreed! I know it was considered a 'feature' to not have a description, but it's a very welcome addition/return.
{insert thrice-stacked quoting here}
Indeed. The descriptions are back. It's been a while since the disappearance, but seeing the descriptions in place again has certainly put me in a better mood.
With reference to this post which references the "Site Rules" page, it should be noted that the "Forum Rules" link at the top of the forum (right below the private messages thing) links to the now nonexistant "Forum Rules" page and it should be changed to link to the newly updated "Site Rules" page.
Just in the last hour or so, I've sporadically received the message "To view submissions, you must be logged in." when trying to access a submission page (examples: 32S, 2848S, 3224S). Sometimes I can see the submission without any problems, though. This has been happening in IE 8, Firefox 3.6.2, and Opera 10.53.

The sporadic "must be logged in" messages should be going away as caches update; I've addressed the root cause of the problem.
They should be gone for good as of the next site code update (hopefully in the next few hours).

This page does not yet exist.
<klmz> it reminds me of that people used to keep quoting adelikat's IRC statements in the old good days
<adelikat> no doubt
<adelikat> klmz, they still do

Seems that it also allows movies with "Too few votes to display" to be on the list...
I'm not really sure that's a bug. While the site won't display it, it will still rank it.
If you actually want to know what the site rates it, you can also check the RSS feed for the movie, it'll display its rating even when the site won't.

It depends. Do you want runs displayed there that have vote from 'that guy' that gave it 10? Doesn't exactly sound great for a page titled "Movies-Popular" if one guy says it's awesome :)

No, but it does happen if PHP is overburdened.

Publications from Dracula X to Harmony of Dissonance are missing on http://tasvideos.org/Movies-Popular.html despite of having 8.0 rating. Looks like the actual line to go there is a bit higher than 8.0.
Most likely rounding:
To appear to be 8.0 needs only 7.95 average rating
To appear in popular movies (presumably) needs at least 8.0 sharp.
