I've been waiting for someone to contribute this profile for the DVD version of The Walking Dead S7, I've been working the last 6 days in a row and couldn't do anything with it myself, didn't see where anyone was in any kind of a hurry to get this into the database so I decided to do what I could on my first day off to at least get it in there.  Gathered as much info as I could, tried to contribute it, but it's refusing to contibute saying a pending contibution already exists, but I don't see it anywhere in pending updates.  So, is it in fact being contibuted?  If not, why can't I contribute it?

It is a pending New contribution, as such it will not show in the contribution list.

Ahh.  Thanks for that.  When the contibution makes it through the system, I'll update the profile I created, I was starting to get concerned no one was buying the DVD versions anymore, I had my copy in hand, actually started watching it already, but couldn't enter it into DVD Profiler.  It's hell not being able to add it into my collection...

I've always bought The Walking Dead on DVD instead of BD, as I do with all TV series that I buy. I usually wait until around the Black Friday time-frame, however, as that's when they tend to be half off (or more). This show has always carried a high price tag, so I can wait until it's more affordable. It's nice to know that I'll be able to download full profiles once I do buy it, so thank you!

You're welcome!  I just wish someone would create the children for Season 6.  I have all 7 seasons and Season 6 is the only one without her children.  I could scan the discs and tie them to the parent but I don't know how to create the cast/crew listings for the episodes, nor do I have the time it would take to create them from scratch.  I'm surprised nobody has ever taken the time to do that.

Continuum: Season 4 is like that too.  I tied the children to the parent but they're blank and I don't have the time or the knowhow it would take to create the cast/crew listing from scratch...

In such cases I copy the cast and crew from the parent profile to all children and remove the unused ones.
Remarks:
• Parts of the copied profile can be pasted to a number of flagged profiles at once...
• The key Alt-R removes the current line, which is way faster than mousing around...
• In the crew section complete episodes can be removed with this shortcut.

... if you are not familiar with copy and paste and/or any other questions arise, send me a PM...

Still a time-consuming enterprise which I haven't enough of to justify attempting it.  I've created profiles for many a DVD/BD in DVD Profiler, but my only attempt at creating the cast/crew profiles was a nightmare which I prayed I would awaken from.  While I'll still create profiles for videos not in the database, I'll draw the line at cast/crew and even episode info for the children beyond the basic listing in the Overview.  I'll leave that to much more capable hands than mine.  I just wish someone would take the time to actually do it.
