No Votes always have to state a reason why the person is voting no and you should be able to see this

I've looked in a couple of places. I saw no reason.

Well, it has already received a no vote, so that appears to be the end of it. I'll never know why the no vote, since the other 7 covers were accepted. I think I'm done contributing.

One can't create a profile only based upon the title. Contribution not allowed. I therefore used the first disc in order to be able to create the profiles. I've submitted the updated profiles, so we'll see what happens.

I resubmitted with an explanation as to why I did so. It seems that the cast/crew wasn't different as that was not resubmitted. Weird.

My image contribution for S2 was declined, yet all of the other seasons were accepted. A later contribution with a completely wrong cover was accepted. I have no idea where that wrong cover came from. All 8 covers were scanned from the Charmed Complete series box set. Also the cast/crew contribution, which appears to have been accepted was ultimately deleted from the following contribution. Even though I told the profiler not to update my local copy of the cast/crew, it did so anyway.

What now?

I've started the ground work as suggested by @AlunH. I probably have something set wrong because when the profile is created, it sets DVD/BD/4K as the media types. No idea why that isn't detected automatically. Obviously a disc can't be all 3 media types. Also, when I uncheck DVD/4K, the no region setting resorts to region B, based on the UK location. No idea why it does that either, even though I initially set no region.

Thanks, I'll dig into that more. BTW, the overall collection is already in the database.  Just need to flesh it out.

plus I seem to remember that since the last programme update they don't work quite the same way across the desktop and mobile apps.

That is good enough reason right there. Thanks guys.

The "4400 Complete Series" is actually a box set, consisting of the box sleeve which holds two HD Keep Cases. One case holds seasons 1 & 2, while the other holds seasons 3 & 4. Each has separate cover art. But, they were never released in this configuration, so there is no EAN (Australia release).

How does one create two separate entries whereby the two keepcases are entered with their disc IDs and their cover artwork?

I just looked at 4400, which I have as well. Episode dividers are used for cast and crew. I used group dividers for the cast. I'll change then to episode dividers.

I did the copying and pasting as @huskersports suggested. I discovered that while doing right-clicking in the areas to see what I would get.

This is what I ended up with before @huskersports amd @GSyren made their suggestions:

Takes a little work, but you'll get the desired result in the end.

You posted 10 min. before I did. Let me know what you think about what I did. Though I do suspect that for the crew I'll have to do what I suggested or what you suggested.

I think I figured out how to get the cast/crew from all 5 seasons into this release. The cast dividers worked out fine, in that I was able to add group dividers for each season. But, for the crew, the group divider was not cooperative. I was not able to group each season on its own. Whenever I tried to add a group divider, it kept being placed in one of the crew types, i.e., like Music. I ended up adding episode dividers. But, I ultimately think that will not result in a crew member being listed correctly, i.e., assigned to a particular season and episode. I'm thinking that maybe each episode divider should prepend  "Season n - " to each episode number.

Consensus? Off my rocker?

That is correct with the showrunner, but that role would be covered if they were the creator or the Producer/Executive Producer.

AFAIK, a Showrunner might not be a creator or producer. I haven't done enough looking to determine one way or the other.

Is Ken the only person that can add anything to the crew?

Not until that becomes an official entry, no. We have a similar issue with "Script Editor" which is another term, in Doctor Who at least, which isn't currently valid.

Right, forgot about that crew entry as well. It seems that new official entries don't happen very often.

So, anyone that is a showrunner can never be added to the database?

I added Russel T Davies as Showrunner to the Other crew category, but when I tried to contribute the change, the web page said that there were no changes to contribute. Not true. Now what?

Currently the database shows separate BD releases for the series, i.e., separate cover art for each season. But, the complete series does not contain five seasons worth of HD Keep Cases. There is a single, larger, HD Keep Case that holds all 10 discs. Shouldn't this listing not be in the database as a box set, but as a single release with the 10 discs? Frankly I have no idea how to combine the 10 separate cast/crews lists into one if the listing were to be changed in order to be more accurate as to what it is.

Before I contributed it, I right-clicked on the "View Contributors" tab (next to "Loan Status") and saw that primtime21 had already created an initial contribution for it, but it had not been approved yet.

Sorry, but I do not see a "Load Status" tab nor a "View Contributors" tab.

UPDATE: Found it with the help of google search.

I found it: DVD -> Copy then Paste

I do have to scan the covers though.

I obtained the Legends of Tomorrow: Complete Series and the box set contains 7 separate season sets. The UPCs of those 7 seasons are different than the UPCs in the database. I suspect that is because the individual releases also have digital copy, so the artwork is different, etc. No digital copy with the series release.

I'm guessing that I need to include all 7 separate releases and then export each season into a file and then import each season file into the new entries that I will have to create for each of the seasons.

If not, what is the procedure to copy over the info from one entry in the database to another?

I know that the Television rating heading exists as I can see it on other entries. I'm trying to enter a new release and the Rating System only has FILM in the drop-down list. How does one get the drop-down list to contain all of the available systems?

Interesting, I never noticed this issue either. To think I was just curious about this thread and discovered the same issue.

18 profiles needed updating.

Short answer: You have to untag those profiles first.

I was certainly coming to that conclusion.
Quote:
How?
- Flag all profiles (Ctrl-A).
- Select Collection / Flagged / Set Tags.
- Uncheck the tag in question and click OK.
- Delete the tag.

As mediadogg said, easy to miss this one. Really obscure. Thanks, did the trick.
