| | Posted: | | | | I am bringing this topic to the forum after I voted on what I think is a violation of the new rules concerning box sets see:-
http://www.invelos.com/dvdpro/contributions/Rules.aspx?display=boxsets
wherein the new rule state NOT to include Disc ID's in the Main Profile but to include them in the Child's.
The set in question is The Pink Panther Collection EAN 5050070010404 Region 2
the new contribution has the following listed under New Contributed Profile
I297A96C217BDB53
I9F94D86D26A2C0B
IAAA5C0679E7E30C
IAE146641C87F42D9
IDB4783DD53344C41
These are 5 of the 6 Disc ID's from said box set and as I have said the New rules state not to include them, So I am asking the Forum members for their comments on this am I right in voting NO or should I change my vote to allow this through.
Anybody who would like verification as to the Disc ID's can view them in my collection at
http://www.invelos.com/dvdcollection.aspx/snarbo
The set itself is listed at number 405, with the child's further down below the Naked Gun Child's

| | Posted: | | | | It's not a new rule, this is how it was for years before the switch to 3.0. You're right, the Disc IDs do not belong in the parent profile, only the box set links. |

| | Posted: | | | | Just to clarify. This is my submission and the disc ids for the child profiles are in the box set section (because the child profiles do not have EANs they exist by disc-id) and not the disc id section.
Snarbo, as I said via PM. The no disc id rule is for the disc id section and not the box set content section. | | | | Stuart | | | | Last edited: by Gadgeteer |

| | Posted: | | | | As I have previously said if the Foruim members think I am in error I will withdraw my no vote.
But to me NO Disc ID's means NO Disc ID's.

| | Posted: | | | | Just checked it; these are not disc ids you are voting on - these are box set contents you're voting for.
You should withdraw your vote. | | | | Guns don't kill people. Hammers do. |

You should withdraw your vote. Exactly, they are the links to the child profiles which make it a box set (they will be Disc IDs or UPC/EANs depending on the contents). it says No Disc-IDs under the Disc-ID's section of the Rules, not the Boxset contents area. | | | | It is dangerous to be right in matters where established men are wrong |

| | Posted: | | | | Well at the moment I will withdraw my no vote lock my local. As Have already said to the contributer via PM my interpretation of this should be no Disc ID's which is what has been submitted, he could have quite easily have put the name's of the film as for the box set contents instead which you are allowed to do.
Stuart consider my No vote withdrawn. (changed to Neutral)

| | Posted: | | | | You are misunderstanding it all. For the child profiles they are in the system by their disc ids instead of the EANs (as the child profiles don't have EANs). The contribution he is doing is merely connecting the child profiles to the main profile. What are you on about 'put the name's of the films'??? This isn't the overview. This is the linking method for boxsets. You're completely wrong in everything you're saying. He is not submitting disc ids. If the was then it would say 'disc id' next to them in the voting screen. It says 'Box set'. There's your clue for you there. | | | | Guns don't kill people. Hammers do. | | | | Last edited: by Kevin Coed |

| | Posted: | | | | Steve, the contribution in question is correct, as has been pointed out. The important part of the rule is the field the data is stored in: the Disc info field shall be empty, the Box set content field shall not. If the child profiles themselves are submitted by disc ID only (because of the absence of an UPC associated with the individual contents), these disc IDs belong in the box set field. Following your interpretation of the rules would make it impossible to associate, identify and track box set contents for individual titles in a box set that don't carry their own UPC. You surely don't want that  | | | | Lutz | | | | Last edited: by Darxon |

| | Posted: | | | | There have to be box set links, snarbo. Elsewise all you have is a parent with no data in it... |

| | Posted: | | | | Thank you all, I must have interpreted that point of the rules incorrectly. My mistake.
