Jim:

It sounds to me like what you did is simply created your own "Boxset" of James Bond films (note that these are also available as ACTUAL boxsets) and assigned the children two that. This is certainly doble, some of us do the same thing with various "sets" Star Trek, Star Wars...whatever. But in this case I believe he was referring to the ACTUAL Die Hard BD Boxset, thoug I could be mistaken. But there is absolutely nothing that prevents any user from setting up his own virtual boxsets locally, that IS after all the whole premise of the local database...taking the Online data and then customizing it to meet your particular criteria.

Except that if it's Disc ID data we are after for BD, it makes no difference how many times or where he asks, it won't change anything. It's a well-known program limitation dating back to pre-Invelos (Intervocative) days and all that can be done is make him aware of it and tell him to wait and be patient.

If the boxset content doesn't have UPCs (which is mostly the case), you'd have to enter the content via Disc-ID.
First: enter the parent profile via UPC.
Second: Put the feature discs into your DVD-ROM drive (DVD-Profiler should run), if the disc is recognized the program offers you to download the profile.
Third: Via DVD-Profiler menu "Disc -> Change UPC" you can change the UPC to Disc-ID (if necessary).
DVD-Profiler handles all profiles alike wether they are stored with UPC or Disc-ID doesn't matter.

Fourth: For adressing child-profiles to the parent-profile do as follows:
Doubleclick on the parent-profile
The "edit profile window" opens
In the section "Box Set Content" you can adress already existing profiles to the parent profile.

Disc-ID is currently only possible for DVDs (not Blu-Rays). Full HD-Media support is expected to arrive with ver. 3.5.X (which is currently only available as a beta-version)

Yes, entered the box UPC, and it was added with 5 discs (the 5 films in the set).
Pop one disc into my DVD player.
You say "Profiler should run"-- how would I know?
You say "program offers" -- how?

I know that the program recognizes the DVD, because If I delete the main entry, and then click DVD > Scan DVD-ROM, it pops up a message "Inserted DVD Recognized; Add "The Coen Brothers Movie Collection" to your collection?" If I click Yes, the 5-disc set is added.

Shouldn't the program do that for me? It knows the five titles (at least) in the set.

Ok, you've added the Box Set Parent profile with the UPC. Now, in DVD Profiler, on the top menu: DVD> Add to Collection. In the Add to Owned dialoge box, select the Add Inserted Disc tab. Now, insert the first Disc of the set into your DVD-ROM drive and the title, if DVD Profiler recognizes the Disc, should pop up. Select Add DVD and the personalize window should open and you can add info there. Do this for each of the Discs. When they are all listed in the Pending Additions window to the right, click on Add Now to Owned. All of the titles will now be added to your collection. Next step is to locate the Box Set parent profile and double click the title to enter Edit mode. Select Box Set Contents from the list on the left. In the search fielf at the bottem type the titles of the discs that you just added to your collection and Assign them to the Box Set parent. When you've added all the titles click OK. Hope this is clear.

I guess that I was not clear on this point. Popping any of the 5 discs into the drive always brings up the title of the whole box set, and all five discs get added.

If you want each individual profile to come up, now. You have to download those individual titles as explained. See if the disc-id matches with your dvd? If not change the disc-id for each title to your disc-id. Then each individual profile will come up if you put the dvd in your computer.
