Just a minor issue, but I thought I'd mention it anyway.

When I add a parent profile along with child profiles to my collection and I change the currency for Price Paid in the parent profile, I need to do this again in each individual child profile.

It would be nice if the programme itself would do that, i.e. if it would follow changes in currency for Price Paid in parent profiles and transfer them to the respective child profiles.

The same goes for purchase dates and purchase places.

Right now, you have to enter purchase dates, places and currencies for the parent and all its children. I would appreciate seeing this fixed at some point.

You misunderstood my request. I never asked for Price Paid to be copied to the child profiles, merely for the currency to be copied, so e.g. changing euros to pounds, but NOT the AMOUNT - I agree that would be silly.

And then of course there is Date and Place of Purchase... I honestly can't see anything wrong with this - and in case of large box sets (e.g. one of those 50 movie packs) it's a bit annoying having to enter the same information time and again.

The problem with this is that there are several boxsets out there that are not complete at first release (e.g. German Star Trek Shuttle Box which was released with the first 9 movies but had free space for the 10th) so that at completion of the "box" you have different purchase dates, and even might have different purchase places for the children.

For further details on this ask the collectors of the "anime"-boxsets. Obviously it happens quite often there that boxsets get completed over a longer time.

But the normal case would be that you enter them all in one go at the date of purchase and then your requested feature is already integrated, because as long as you don't close the "Add DVD" window, DVDProfiler remembers the last place and date of purchase and enters them automatically.

My bad, sorry. I must read more carefully next time.

I have ~150 TV-seasons where most of them have disc based child profiles. I have all Personalized fields empty on childs. If the boxset is movies, then I fill Purchase place & date for childs too. I count't one TV-season as one profile (parent has collection number and childs doesn't) and movie boxsets just opposite (parent doesn't have collection number, but childs does).

Same way varies how I use those fields and any sort of automation would effect this system. If such a feature is added, there should be possibility to disable it.

I too can confirm I just added Firefly The Complete Collection and when it asked to add the children I said yes and it popped up a new window for each disc and If I chose I could leave the price paid at 0 and it copied over all the rest of the information.
