Hi there.

I really, really appreciate the new DVD Profiler 3. Finally,we have a good looking up-to-date application and it gets better and better.

What did not get better since years are those two online collection templates: They look kind of ugly and the media type (HD-DVD/BluRay/DVD) isn't even displayed.
Now that we have an updated good-looking application, I think, it's time for some completely overworked, fresh and nice online collection templates.

What do you think?

Greetings from Germany,
Trav

Rifter -


  not sure if you caught it or not... he's describing the blue or plum and peachy online collections... he'd like something a bit more with the times or customizable... and i'd have to agree... i see no reason why we cant at least get some new themes and a custom header? maybe.... ken?

If Ken could get the online display to reflect exactly how we are cataloguing our collection within DVD Profiler (eliminating or adjusting superfluous data you don't care for, arranging the box sets as child under parent, perhaps allowing us to link to cover images we host ourselves), then perhaps the community might be less combative about every minute detail of the database.

Yeah so would I but I'd hardly say the online feature has many functions.

So the implementation of boxsets and the display of media types for example is style over substance for you?

I personally would love to see improvement in both Function (boxset support) and Style (new skins). Even though I use phpdvdprofiler... I do fall back on this site for some things.

Q:What can we expect out of Invelos Software?
First and foremost, you can expect a persistent, ongoing presence in these forums.  You'll quickly get to know Gerri, my better half, as she helps me moderate the forums and answer support tickets.  She's also my favorite QA tester!

Next, expect regular program updates.  Quarterly releases, including DVD Profiler, DVD Profiler Mobile, and DVD Profiler Online are planned for the forseeable future.


So I guess it is coming, unless he was referring just to the forum software.

Yes, I would like to be able to show the pictures to the personal DVDs I've added to my collection by being able to link to the images I have hosted.

Hello,

I hope now it's a goood thread 

I would like to know if you can add some skin and option menu on the on line collection ? If the new version is very usefull and beautifull the On line collection are poor and "sade"
For me the most important additionnal option I guess, it's the possibilty to organize de database by type of movie

Thank you for your help

I agree - it would be great if we could be allowed at the very least to upload our own style sheets to personalise the look of our online collection.

Hi there,

I think before the possibility to customize the template of the online version, adding some king of filters would be really nice. Basic ones like search by actors, type of film, realisator.

Thanks in advance if you decide to add some cool features on the online collection.

Best regards.

I think the application did not get better since ten months, and what is an Online Collection good for? Never used it.

Well i use online collections to share the list of my BD and DVD collection, when friends or my family want to check if i can lend them a film, it is really good to have the possibility to filter a minimum the HUGE list ...
