What is the right way to treat multiple movies with the same EAN-code?

StudioCanal Collection has multiple movies with the same code. I'm trying to add "L'année dernière à Marienbad" with EAN code 5-050582-731477, but Le Mépris allready has this EAN code assigned.

The only thing you can do is try adding it by Disc ID (if you have a DVD or BD drive in your computer). If by any chance (I would think unlikely) that it is the same disc ID as another title then you would have to keep it local only as they are the only two keys they use to identify profiles. UPC + Locality and Disc ID + Locality.

This title and EAN exist on the database with a locality of Sweden, using that entry would allow you to make and accept updates as this is a joint Denmark/Sweden release

The Marienbad EAN seems to be misprinted though, and will probably be corrected in the near future.
The text above barcode on le Mepris is "BLU RAY 824 314 7" which corresponds to EAN 5050582431477

On Marienbad the text is "BLU RAY 824 314 8" wich would correspond to an EAN something like :505058243148x

discshop.se confirms this by having the EAN (most likely provided by studiocanal/universal) as 5050582731484

The distributor has corrected the EAN on the Marienbad shrinkwrap; there's a label smack on top of the slipcover EAN.  The EAN on the shrinkwrap label is 5-050582-731484 which presumably is the "right" EAN for Marienbad.

Its slipcover still has the "wrong" EAN which is a duplicate of the Mépris EAN.

Very useful info; just one piece of advice; make sure this is very expicit in the contribution notes if/when contributing by the corrected EAN... and then watch out in case of future 'corrections'!
It is dangerous to be right in matters where established men are wrong
