Thanks!

I just submitted a new listing for the TV series Back to You. This was my first series submission, so I didn't see where it asked for the release title (it did ask for the title of the series), if you need the actual release title it would be Back to You: Season 1.

Sorry if it caused any confusion.

Apparently when you guys created this DVD Collection section, both the Blu-ray and DVD versions of this movie were both put as DVD. This link I'm posting to you is the Blu-ray version which should be moved to it's appropiate place or removed from the system if this movie isn't already in the Blu-ray section.

I'd like to caution people when adding films using Amazon as the main source. Several Amazon entries contain incorrect disc spefications.

Bill Osco's Alice in Wonderland was a disaster for example. Wrong year, aspect ratio, runtime and region code.

I made lots of entries, and I hardly ever used Amazon as my source for info on specs, info about the movie, genres, etc. I go by what the DVD cover says and even see for myself by watching a couple of minutes of the movie on my PS3 just to make sure that everything I put in is correct. Since a lot of entries have incorrect info already, I just edit whatever is wrong and replace it with correct info.

For upcoming releases, I only post info I know for sure is correct and then add more info if I find anything else about the movie that I didn't already know about.

Excellent. Funny thing with Alice is that the listed runtimes are all over the place. Amazon says 80, IMDB says 78, the case says 00 (printing error) but of course popping in the dvd solves the mystery at 72 minutes.

The only thing I use Amazon for is the ASIN and the release date (I'll also save the cover if it's a HQ one). The rest is from the box otherwise I leave it blank.

Not sure if I'm missing it somewhere but Stereo and DTS sound formats aren't on the drop-down bar.

Anything 2.0 or greater is supposed to mean stereo. If the spec page says 2.0 Mono, that really doesn't make any sense. Obviously the same track will come out of both speakers but it is 1.0 mono at the end of the day.

DTS strangely isn't listed for english audio. It is for french and other language tracks though.

Thanks, I though Dolby Digital and Stereo were two different codecs. Hopefully DTS will be added along with region info for the DVD's instead of ABC.

Is there a way to have your DVD titles show up under your name like Blus do?

I added in the One Million Years B.C. & One Night at McCool's Theatrical entries earlier and I think I added the corresponding UK DVDs but they haven't appeared yet. Are they in the system awaiting approval? Not sure if I did actually add them, as I was adding stuff and watching BBC News 24 at the same time.

By the way, the One Million Years B.C. is a seperate UK DVD to the one already listed, the one I think I added was the 2002 WB release, not the 2006 Optimum DVD.

EDIT: They are in the system now, must have just been in the DVD queue. Uploaded some covers for them, shame you can't add DVDs + their covers at the same time.

Although I tried to add multiple titles to a boxset with the numbers at the top of the addressbar but it said it didn't recognize the title. I added a comma and a space after each one and tried it without spaces but it rejected the next one.
