Two questions regarding this.  The contribution rules state that video DVDs that are included as a bonus DVD with CDs and video games are allowed to be contributed (and I notice the Halo 2 Limited Edition already is).  The first question is should I contribute these with the UPC or the Disc ID?

The second question is specific to Halo 3.  The Legendary Edition game with a third disc that is a bonus DVD.  I'm curious what I should use for the cover images.  The disc is inside a Keepcase (with a 2nd disc that is not a video DVD), the Keepcase is inside a custom replica of a helmet, and that is inside a very large box (a bit bigger than an Xbox 360 box; box has the UPC).  I'm thinking about going with the Keepcase covers (which don't have a UPC), as that's what the disc is actually in, not to mention I'd have to break out my camera to get pictures of the actual box or helmet.  Also not sure if I should set the case type to Keepcase or Custom.

I would see this along the same lines as the Lord of the Rings giftsets that were out.  Since the disc is part of an overall UPC for the giftset then the UPC for the giftset is contributed.  So, in this case, the Helmet picture is posted.

This same DVD you have in your helmet is also the same DVD that came in the Halo3 Limited Edition that also came out.  This one has it's own UPC (882224-444484).

Since I have that one I suppose I could contribute that one to the database as well.
Gotta nip it in the bud, Andy!

Additional discs should be contributed by the Disc ID.

I wish you luck on that cover image!  Given the light of the box inside of a box inside of a box deal, it would probably be a toss up for a photo of the helmet or the banner on the keep case.

Actually it's not.  I initially bought the Limited Edition and the second disc with that is a game disc that can only be played in the Xbox 360 (same as with the Perfect Dark Zero Limited Edition).  The Legendary Edition comes with that disc and a third one that is a video DVD that can be played in any DVD player.
