One thing I am missing is that when you add a colection, like The Rocky Collection ore The Godfather DVD Collection, it shud also add the box set contense and download this. So that you do not have to add these seperatly afterwards.
You're not the only one who wants this! But as not everyone likes it, as long as it's an option you can switch on and off. You cud simply get a question when you are adding it if you wanna add and download the subelements/box contense also |

Someone to write a Report that differentiates Blu-ray from DVD. |

Someone to write a Report that differentiates Blu-ray from DVD. the report is done, Ken himself actually posted one totally agree with the collection number thing. though you know you can "Insert Collection Number" and it will shift all the numbers above that one up by one. just right click on the dvd you want to put the new collection number before and the option is titled "Insert Collection Number". if you don't have gaps later for other reasons it will work perfect for what you want. if you do have gaps it will keep the gaps the same size (so basically everything including and above the one you highlight will get 1 added to its collection number) -Agrare |

| | Posted: | | | | The most valuable of the Tools/Charts & Graphs for me is the 'Country of Origin' - but of course no CoO entered in a profile results in an imperfect chart. From my efforts to input missing CoOs into profiles it would appear that some 10-15% lack this important item of data. The CoO chart helpfully includes 'None', giving a quick check as to how many a collection is missing (and thus the effort needed to get an accurate CoO picture).
...although the chart still won't cover co-production/multiple countries which has to be left to Tags.
My feature request is for two improvements in this area:
1 Allow customisation of the countries list by enabling dragging/moving of a country into the top 8 places OR at least move the US and UK out of the alphabetical sequence to the top of the list
2 Update the list of countries (Iran? South Korea?) |

| | Posted: | | | | Sometimes CoO can't be entered because the film's a multinational co-production and occasionally there's no clear-cut way to identify the primary CoO. That's why my own entry in this thread was the ability to deal with multiple CoO's. |

| | Posted: | | | | dee1959jay - I'm aware that some profiles have no CoO because of the problem of co-production/multiple countries as you can see (as it may be unsolveable and I'm happy with my Tags solution at present) to concentrate on the requests I wished for. At this stage of the game I usually opt for entry of the (sourced) first-named and use that.
Once again I've had another go at a search on 'CoO': again on all forums/all time 'There were no matching posts', but trying this time under this requests topic + 30 days brings up your entries and those of others!
So apologies... |

| | Posted: | | | | No apology needed!  Besides: the Forum Search feature is not the strongpoint of the Invelos website. Usually a Google search of the site produces better results. I think the problem of multinational co-productions could be solved by creating a list with checkboxes in DVDP much like we already have for subtitles. However I don't know how easy or difficult this would be to implement. |

I think it be great if you could double click on an item in a graph (in this example the CoOs with "None") and it would flag the entries so that you would know which titles exactly needed to be updated. | | | | Last edited: by stevegblair |

| | Posted: | | | | A minor cosmetic request:
I'd like to see the ability to set a colour for the title in the DVD listing. For example, be able to set the text to red (or blue or green etc) for titles which are not from my home region (purchased from overseas) |

I'm working on a plugin that will do that (not the graph part, but it will identify these and flag them). | | | Get the CSVExport and Database Query plug-ins here.

2 Update the list of countries (Iran? South Korea?) Seems like there is many missing several countries. Why not simply make a complete list in the Locality listing? | | | | Last edited: by Robert_NO |
