Hello,
As a noob from DVDSpot I have a feature that I would LOVE to see added. (And yes, I did look at a year's worth of posts to see if it had been asked for before so apologies if I missed it)

I am using the Invelos Default layout so my question is based upon that

In the top middle section there are several tabs:
General Info / Discs / Easter Eggs / Notes / Overview

I would love to see (and others would, too, I am sure) an additional tab of "Episodes" or maybe "Contents" (don't know a good title, just a suggestion). I am someone who collects many TV show as well as cartoon anthologies and I would love to be able to list them. Some examples could be (and I gave a couple of scenarios):

Disc One:
Episode Title
Episode Title
Episode Title

Disc Two:
Cartoon Short
Cartoon Short

Disc 3A:
Title
Title

Disc 3B:
Title
Title

The reason I suggest a separate tab that would include a list is that it would be available to all members (as opposed to the "notes" section which I assume is personal).

Thank you in advance for thinking about the idea.

ETA: I also thought about things like the Three Stooges Collections, etc, that others may wish to see in this format.

You are correct about the notes section being personal.

For what you want, the closest we have (that I know of) is this.

W0m6at,
Great amount of work there! That was indeed more helpful to me than I originally thought. I cannot get the photos to show so didn't worry about them.

Now, if only a tab could be created so that at least titles could be added (and maybe original air dates or years in the case of collections)

I can't take credit for the vast amount of work that's gone into that project.  As for the images, do you have HTML enabled for your notes section?
Tools>Options>Display>Use HTML for notes

The other thing is, you will probably have to modify the path to the files to match where you put the images on your computer.

If I understand your intent correctly here, dividers could be used for the titles (to separate out cast and crew between items in collection).    Garth Marenghi's Darkplace in my collection is a good example of this (for a series).  The same can be done for short film collections (The crew section of The Animation Show, or the cast/crew sections of the Grasshoppa! sets in my collection).

While we wait for TV series/Episode support down on disc level, I (we) have this little script you can use in the meantime. Check out the EPGL tutorial in my signature. It uses EPG's from the site already mentioned.
