Hello Friends,

    Seems like I have been having a lot of weirdness in my database recently, and now I submit to you for solving the latest.. however first let me explain my setup...

win 7 64bit... fairly fresh install onto a brand new ssd... this issue seems to be only since the new installation...

i number my collection with my most recent purchases having the highest number... when i remove items from the collection (for example selling a dvd that i have replaced with bluray) i always reassign collection numbers to close the gaps...

now here is the issue:

recently i pretty regularly add multiple titles to my owned list at the same time, some from my wishlist and others that were not on my wishlist. dvd p has always moved the wishlist titles over without placing them in the pending additions screen... in the past i know for a fact that it would assign collection numbers correctly, in the order that i inputted the discs... which many times meant giving a pending addition title #2 and adding a wishlist title with #3... then once  i hit add now to owned it would download the profile for the non-wishlist title and place it at #2 correctly.... now it duplicates and assigns them the same collection number... i have to manually go into the personalize screen to fix it each time...

any ideas?

I use it exactly the same way and have exactly the same problem.  I've been using this software since the early days and this was a bug introduced in recent versions.  You don't have to do it manually though, you can use the "Reassign collection numbers" tool under the collection menu.  You can tell it not to process below a certain number so that only those that require changing get changed. 

The larger irritation for me is box sets.  I wish it would "insert" and adjust the collection numbers for the new disks rather than assigning the new collection numbers.  These I have to manually insert spaces and reassign the numbers, then do a renumbering to remove gaps so the box set disks actually show in the proper location.
