| | Posted: | | | | Hello,
I wanted to know how you will contribute it. There are 2 Blu-ray disc: on the first it's the theatrical version and on the second it's the director's cut version. So for you what is the best maneer to contribute it:
proposition 1: create a box set profile according to the rules and 2 childs (one for each version) by Disc-ID (but as I don't have Blu-ray player on my computer they will be manual and local)
proposition 2: create only one main profile by UPC, complete the profile, with which running time as they are on 2 different discs and for cast and crew use 2 dividers one for the theatrical version and another for the director's cut and add in Other Features the director's cut and in Disc Info the 2 discs by noticing the version in the description
Thank you in advance. | | | Regards

| | Posted: | | | | I would say this falls into the "Box Set" category, so would be "Proposition 1" and hope somebody with a Blu-ray drive also buys and then contributes the Disc ID's and thus child profiles.

| | Posted: | | | | I think I would have used one profile with the UPC/EAN for the theatrical version and have the director's cut as a child profile (using disc id). Basically the same way the Ben Hur set is set up
After all, it's not two movies. It's just one so in my opinion it shouldn't be a box set, but the child profile can be there for those that want it. | | |

Yes I asked this question because when I reread the rules (with the update for the future 3.5) I have seen this possibility of "Bonus Feature Film". | | | Regards

| | Posted: | | | | according to the rules:
Running Time
Use the Running time specified on the DVD cover unless you can verify there is a discrepancy between that and the actual Running time. When contributing an accurate, DVD-based, time from the DVD, round down from 29 seconds and up from 30 seconds in the nearest minute. Include your verification method in your Contribution Notes. For instance, note that a given movie has an actual Running time of 119: 37, Running time would be 120 even if the case said 119 or 121.
For branching titles, or those with multiple versions (e.g. Theatrical and Director's Cut) on the same disc, use the longest running time. Exception: If the longer version is available only as part of an Easter Egg, use the shorter running time. | | | In the 60's, People took Acid to make the world Weird.

| | Posted: | | | | I don't see either way of profiling it as being wrong, however I think it's more user-friendly to treat it as a bonus film rather than a boxset as it is really only 2 versions of the same film. |

| | Posted: | | | | I would do whatever you wish LOCALLY. it is not TWO different movies as the Rules require for Boxset definition. It is TWO versions of the same film, thus for Contribution it is NOT a Boxset.

| | Posted: | | | | Maybe I misunderstood proposition 2, but I would handle it as a "bonus feature", meaning that there will be a main profile by UPC and one child profile for the second disc with the extended cut. While the parent profile should (online) have ALL information, the child profile should only refer to the second disc. Then, locally, I'd remove all data referring to the child from the main profile. | | | Achim [諾亞信； Ya-Shin//Nuo], a German in Taiwan.

Skip Yes that's why I asked what is the best solution to enter it in DVD Profiler as the rules doesn't cover the case of two versions of the same movie on 2 DISCS!... When I read the rules it seems the best solution is the "Bonus Feature Movie" but the case I'm confronted isn't really this too... That's why I ask some opinion how to do the best to be in accord with the rules... | | | Regards

http://www.axelmusic.com/productDetails/012236191513 It's not this exactly because it's the French version of the Blu-ray but there are the theatrical version of the movie and the director's cut in the same case but on 2 discs. But there are no bonus... | | | Regards

Does the Blu-ray still have forced subtitles for the theatrical version? |
