ANNOUNCEMENT Concerning Australian Entries in Database - Blu-ray Forum

LordCrumb · 06-23-2012, 08:35 AM

There have been a number of titles being added to the Australian Database without first checking to see if they are already entered.

Please be sure to check if they are already in the Database before submitting titles. This can mean searching by different titles, for example Seven may also be listed as Se7en, or Fantastic 4 could be Fantastic Four.

If you have found a duplicate, please post them in here.

There are some cases where Duplicate entries are ok, such as Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, which come in either a Limited Edition Digipack, or the regular Amaray in a Slipcover.

Films such as Ben Hur, which originally came with a Slipcover, does not need to be added to the Database again, once the slipcover has gone out of print. It has not been re-issued, it has not been given an extra disc. That is what the selection box "Slipcover in Original Pressing" is for, to inform people it may, or may not still come with the Slipcover.

I hope this makes sense. Any questions, please ask, and please post duplicates when you find them.

The Terminator has a duplicate. The one without the cover art is the duplicate.

There isn't any listings at all for 'The Terminator'.

Whilst we're on a bit of a "clean up" mission I may as well mention that of late there seems to be a lot of specs being entered based on what's on the artwork or (in some cases) guesswork. These can often be incorrect.

Unless you've confirmed the specs from the disc directly whether in player or via a BDInfo scan please leave them set as "Unset". Many are being set as "No" or being entered incorrectly with pre-orders often having guessed specs entered. Although I'm sure many are just trying to help incorrect specs are no more helpful than none at all except that they're also misleading.

If you're creating an entry for a release which you don't own or haven't had the opportunity to check your best option is to create a "shell" entry for the title and fill in the specs once you'd been able to confirm them.

Thanks in advance.

The one you created is actually a duplicate anyhow so that's one for Mac to take care of. Dr. No was already released here.

^ They are both correct. One is the DigiPak release, the other is the standard Amaray release. I've fixed the title on each though.

This one is ok, as it doesn't have a Digital Copy included (other listing has one), unless it never came with a Digital Copy to begin with?

Might need someone to confirm UP was released without a DVD copy.. hopefully someone can after seeing this.

*CONFIRMED* This one is ok, just uploaded the correct cover image.

Non Steelbook edition, just needs the release date added.

Isn't this the non Steelbook edition though? Or is there a new one out?

Re: "Up" without the DVD should be the one from Pixar's Classics line. Although ezydvd lists it with a DVD, I think they just mixed the cover up with the BD only version.
http://www.ezydvd.com.au/blu-ray/up-...-dvd/dp/819157

"Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince" has a Windows only downloadable Digital Copy. Offer expired in 18/11/2011, so it would've came in the original pressing, before the new cover was released.

It should be in this version, which I have. It also states that there's a digital copy in the back cover.

Regarding Harry Potters, as jospeh_m pointed out these are the wrong ones:

All the other entries are good. The above ones can be changed. Looks like there's a user on an adding spree not doing some checking first...
