I'd appreciate to get two new things with one of the next updates:

Movie size "2.00:1" - not existing so far but it seems to be quite popular with several TV-Shows these days

Genre "Mistery" - correct for countless allready existing movies but not available in the profiler so far.

Is it possible to add those two in close future?

You can make the aspect ratio anything you want. There just happens to be a list of popular sizes in the drop-down menu.

It is a mystery that "Mystery" is not included as a default genre.  My guess is that the term became too closely associated with detective novels and crime-solving.  If I take a wider view and think of mystery as it applies to stories mainly involved with trying to understand what's going on it seems very descriptive of the genre.  For example, I see that the genres for Close Encounters are "Drama, Adventure, Science Fiction" where "Science Fiction, Mystery, Adventure" would be more descriptive.

I agree that "Mystery" should be a selectable Genre. Scooby-Doo needs it for a start.
Many murder/mystery DVDs in the database too.
