Ive put both my tv and my bluray player(both of which are not included in the database) into the database and they are not saving into database. Any help?

I just added a DVD. It´s a region 2 disc, but how do I edit region?

[Deciazulado]

You don't have an Oppo?

j/k


At the moment you can't edit DVD regions, because that hasn't been implemented yet, nor automatic assignment of DVD Regions by country like on BDs which the list has been made and pending the developers to implement.

Could Ireland be added as Country of origin for the theatrical database?

Please and thank you.

Is it possible to use just the month and year for a BD release date?

I added some like that, December 2012, for the Mill Creek Double Features that were reported found at Walmart but the approved versions have the field blank.

Is that the preferred method of listing those, since an accurate actual date of release is not known, or would it be preferred to just make up an approximate date?

Thanks.

Is something going on at the moment regarding uploading cover art?

I'm trying to upload the back of the j-card for The Dark Knight Rises (HMV UK Steelbook) and Total Recall (Arnie version) UK Steelbook, but for the past couple of days they've been locked for approval. I submitted some other covers a few days ago and they only took a matter of hours

Just try to work on a 1000 things in one day every day and you'll see. . Also a few of the things people are requesting they can do for themselves on the edit page (see first post for links too)

dark knight/total recall should be free now

Yes it is possible.
Release date alt
But I discovered that members can't set alternate dates and sent a PM to the developers: http://forum.blu-ray.com/showthread....01#post6885801

These all seem to have dates tho?

Everything there except for the Hollow Man / Hollow Man 2 DF were ones Mill Creek had typical release dates for.

Not sure if that December 21st date for the Hollow Man is accurate based on someone knowing or just a guess. Someone mentioned buying the When a Stranger Calls / Happy Birthday to Me on the 23rd so perhaps someone knows an official date. All of the ones I added were done with just December 2012 as I have no idea anything more specific so didn't want to fabricate a day.

That Hollow Man DF and everything at http://www.blu-ray.com/movies/search...=recentlyadded from When a Stranger Calls / Happy Birthday to Me to the top are ones that just were stumbled upon as new double features at Walmart by people. Those will all eventually have the same release date if anyone knows what it is or if you just want to guesstimate one.

Apologies as I didn't notice this before my last post.

Does that apply to adding Ireland as a country of origin to the theatrical database also?

When I added Tara Road I left the country of origin blank.

IMDb and Wiki had it as Ireland only so just leave cases like that as unlisted then?

Thanks Deciazulado.

[Deciazulado]

mmm there's no Ireland neither on the theatrical menu..

I am just wondering why there are second listings to Friday The 13th thru Friday The 13th Part 3. The first listings are from Paramount Pictures and the second listings are from Warner Bros. I know that Warner Bros can't have the US rights to the first 8 Friday The 13th movies. Friday The 13th thru Friday The 13th Part 3 along with Wayne's World and Wayne's World 2 are already out on blu-ray.

WB recently signed a distribution deal with Paramount which begins 1/1/2013. Those are just some of the titles, out of ~600, that WB will begin distributing for Paramount.

The original releases are being discontinued and WB will be re-releasing them. Most of the titles should be exactly the same sans a few logos.

Ok, thank you for the info. Hopefully, the packaging will remain the same not the WB style with a big side-ways blu-ray disc logo. Does this mean that Paramount will release The Final Chapter to Jason Takes Manhattan on blu-ray soon? Hopefully, Jason Goes To Hell and Jason X will be released on blu-ray.

That is a different release.

UPC 031398221890 on one. 031398147824 on the other.

Blu-ray.com only allows one UPC attached to an entry, even when releases are otherwise identical, so multiple listings may be just another unique UPC release.

From what I can tell, it appears 031398147824 is the Canadian release and 031398221890 is the US release. But that's based on only one online site which lists that UPC. Google doesn't find any other site with that "Canadian" UPC so it would appear it's extremely rare or never existed at all.

Happy New year and also thanks to all that contribute and help!

A few more change requests for consideration ...

Could you add an Undo option for the Master movie ID (this option isn't available for DVD profiles atleast)? I accidently put in a wrong master movie ID and can't undo that submission.

Could you also add a Sort by Release Date (desc) option when sorting my collection?
