So I've been putting in DVD's like always but I have a few that aren't on the database. My problem is that when I try to pick the Film Rating it doesn't let me pick the country the rating is from, it seems to basically stick to the US rating (Which is a problem because I use the Australian ratings system) so how exactly can I change what rating system is available. Is there something obvious I'm missing? Thank you in advance

Rating is tied to locality. If these are Australian DVD, change the locality to that and you will have those ratings available. In fact it will convert the existing rating to the equivalent for the new locality.

Indeed.
To change the locality: go to DVD / Change Locality. You may have to tick the "Show all localities" box to get Australia to show.
Once you've changed the locality of the DVD to Australia, you will automatically see the ratings of the Australian rating system.

Thanks to the vagaries of taste across countries this translation isn't always totally accurate when it comes to the actual rating given by the local ratings board though.

Thank you so much for your help, I did it and yay now I can do the ratings thing properly (Thank heck I thought to ask about this at the 60 DVD mark instead of waiting till I was done or there would've been a ton of tears). You've all been a tremendous help and again, I thank you
