Sounds like the perfect system for abuse that I ever heard of..."Experienced Contributors" imposing their personal preferences on the database without other users having a say...no thanks. I'll stick to the contribution voting system and screeners here any day thank you .

While I agree with you, I don't think we have to worry about that.  Thanks to AOL, no company in their right mind, that charges for their product, will ever use a volunteer workforce.

Btw, why is it still PAL?

PAL is an analogue TV code system used for colour televisions.  High definition is not.

And how do you deselect PAL in the Blu-ray/DVD combo pack then?

There should be an option to support combo packs. Another wonderful inaccuracy to add to the list. A database should be open to the possibility of change, and flexible enough to adapt accordingly to that change.

And another thing i don't understand is given Sam is apparently such a big business brain. Is why he don't get the DvD spot data taken by Cory. The hire a team of programmers to program a new DvD site.

Sure beats complaining if you have the resources to do it yourself.

Instead he complains about things on here

I am trying to find the rule you refered to in your 'no' vote. 

From the box set rule, near the bottom:

Quote:
Sets containing the same film on multiple media types (such as a Blu-ray/DVD combo pack) are to be entered as a normal profile for the main media type (Blu-ray in this example), with all included media types checked. A combo which includes HD media (HD-DVD, Blu-ray) as well as DVD should use the details from the HD media in the main profile. However, you may add an additional profile by Disc ID for the DVD content and add this profile to the Box Set contents for the Blu-ray profile.

Thanks for that.  I have to admit that I didn't go looking for this in the Box Set section...not sure why though.  I guess there are a lot of profiles that need to be changed because, as I said, checking both seems to be a common practice.

I am trying to find the rule you refered to in your 'no' vote.  It is common practice to list 'Anamorphic' on Blu-ray/DVD combo packs so I am quite curious.

You might want to countercheck this "no" vote with your B-rD of The Towering Inferno:

the screen print shows that the contributor took the changes from the credits. Are you saying you have brought up the credits and re-checked?

On-screen credits from the film show him credited as Normann Burton.

Seems like a foolish thing to do, to remove the Anamorphic info since:

1) Anamorphic obviously doesn't aply to the HD version (since there is no such thing) so anyone looking at the profile will know it belongs to the DVD
2) since the DVD 'child profile is optional, it makes sense to include the info in the main profile otherwise the info may not be inluded anywhere.

When I catch a contributor lying about taking information from the credits I'll usually open a support ticket and insert a screenshot from the contribution and from the film credits.  I think Invelos does pay attention to these.

Except he isn't lying.  He clearly states that he got the information from wikipedia and the credits.  Seems as if there might have been a need for the 'credited as' here, but the contributor didn't use it.
