Well, I was only stating my opinion. I don't spend hours upon hours putting discs in the DVD drive

Since I want to make sure that I record the absolute correct Disc ID number in the Disc Tab of the profile, I always put every ned DVD disc into my DVD ROM drive when I get it.  While it's there, the program tells me whetehr there's a profile available or not.

That's just me....but I doubt that I'm alone.

Hey, I check 'em, too!  I just grab 'em all at once, and then check at my leisure.  I can always modify things if necessary at that point.  But I grab the children first, THEN the master, and don't lose the box set contents at all.

Grabbing the children first makes absolutely no difference.  The boxset contents do not download with the profile (at least so that you can see them in the boxset contents vieew).

You are not alone Hal.  That's why I always fight when someone suggest that the program automatically download children profiles.

Neither of you are alone. With Disc ID differences, there really can't be any other way.

I believe that is all we need to proceed. Ken to decide whether or not the box set contents should be allowed in the master profile. The rest is resolved. The master get all the info and child profiles are allowed.

I guess we could have a vote to see just how the comunity is split on this

posting one now 

There is already a poll on this, Rick. And a consensus was reached. We had one at IVS and one here, do we ned a third. Are we playing recount?

Whether you read the disc first, then download the profile, or grab all the children and then read the disc to verify the ID is immaterial.  Takes just as long to do either one - I've tried it both ways.

I never implied that one way or the other was faster. 

Too throw my 2 cent's worth in, I'm with John on this one, in that if a keepcase digipak or whatever form of packaging is used, if it contains more than one title / episode it should be classified as a box set be it movies or of a TV series, because at the moment there are two sets of rules for similar items, note I said similar.

It's so simple to have for arguments sake the series 24, which when purchased is one box for the whole season / series, but contains 5,6 or 7 disc's, to me that's a box set with 5, 6 or 7 child profile by disc id, not a lot of difference to Pink Panther Collection one outer box with 6 child profile inside done by disc id.

The rules state "The term "Box Set" is used to define any release that includes more than one film."
a TV Season / Series is nothing more than a box set under this definition.

Do I have the summary right?  If so, what are the objections of the dissenters?

No objection whatsoever.  My votes have always been for the rules, whether I personally like them or not.  I've never cared one way or the other on this issue, but I always voted according to the rules.  Now that you've made a statement, I will be happy to vote differently.  Ken and Gerri are the only people I will listen to for rules changes.  My one request: once this is decided for certain, please update the rules.
