At the Invelos website I read about the new version 3.5:

"Peruse your collection with ease.
"New! Scour the web for pictures of your favorite cast and crew to add to your local database"

Unfortunately I can't find that new option in the program. I searched in vain for it...

I know there's a possibility through "Online > Other websites > Search this title in IMDb", but that's not new and it's not a direct way to find "pictures of your favorite cast and crew".

Can anybody show me the way to that "new" possibility?

all you do is look at any cast or crew person in dvd profiler - i.e double click on them so you see the list of profiles they are in.

Then double click that empty box for the photo.

It will take you to google image.

Copy any picture and right click (paste) into the photo placeholder (which is still open) in dvd profiler.

EDIT - I also have to add that this has always been there since 3.1.

The new bit is that you can have different pictures for each person in each profile. But someone else will have to give detailed information about that.

You can get several thousands of headshots using files that you will find in this thread. First post gives the link to main headshots database, and last pages show links to recent updates.

Thank you guys for your greatly appreciated help!

@Pauls42
Thanks for pointing me to the undocumented possibility to double click the empty box taking me to Google. As far as I know unfortunately that possibility is not indicated in DVDP's help.

@surfeur51
Thanks for leading me to the headshots thread. I'm considering to wait for the version 5 of the Headshots Database: it will be in the 3.5 format as I could understand.

The format has no importance, you can use now V4. My last update is yet in 3.5 format, but there are only actors that I have in my collection (several thousands anyway)
