You are incorrect. The rules are perfectly clear about this. Combos are to be entered as normal profiles which means that all features belong to the main profile. But you are allowed to use a child profile for the included lesser medium.
...

My understanding is the combo set rule states we create a normal profile for the main media type and we use the details from the main media in the main profile. In which case, the features found on the child main feature disc are not entered into the main profile.

A "normal" profile means we apply standard contribution rules to the main profile.

• For example, if the combo set included a bonus material disc then those features are entered into the main profile as normal for a single film 2-disc set.

• The same is true if the combo set contained a bonus feature film listed as a special feature, it would be added to the main profile as per standard contribution rules for bonus feature films.

However, the combo set rule did not declare the child main feature was a bonus feature film, so standard contribution rules apply strictly to the child main feature disc. The combo set rule created an exception to standard rules by allowing this disc to be added to the main profile's box set contents.

There was no rule that degraded the main feature status of a lower ranking media type in the presence of a higher ranking media type. They are both main feature discs and the "Disc Features" rules apply equally.

I found no rule in the combo set / standard contribution rules that supported your claim that all features belong to the main profile.

OverviewCheckPlus 1.3.0

Recently I got a request for an enhancement to this program. The user asked for more characters to be added as special character buttons. I liked the idea. When correcting an overview it can be annoying to hunt for Ç or Ñ or whatever national character is required. So I thought, well if I add it as an option in Settings, you would only have to hunt for it once, and then it would always be there. So that’s where I started.

But it ocurred to me that there was a problem. Windows and my program supports Unicode, but DVD Profiler does not. I’m not sure exactly what DVD Profiler uses, but it seems to be Windows-1252, or something similar. Read the help file for more info!

So, I set out to color code the buttons. Those that work should be gray, those that fall back to their base character should be yellow, and those that don’t work (and are replaced with question mark when pasted into DVD Profiler) should be pink. And his seems to be correct on my machine. But I’m not sure how Profiler will handle things on Windows with different language packs. So the coloring is only a hint on how things may work.



So, OverviewCheckPlus 1.3 is the result of my efforts. You can decide which (if any) characters that need to be added. Put them in the Settings once and own them forever.
