That would be imperative for this functionality to work since disc-ID is clearly not a unique value (as opposed to UPC/EAN).
A problem with UPC/EAN does arise when a manufacturer decides to release multiple titles (different from re-releases) with the same UPC/EAN over a period of time. It has happened although it affects a very small percentage of titles. Aye, those are problematic. UPC is defined as a primary unique index in the profilerdatabase though. It won't let you enter 2 titles with the same UPC whereas titles by disc-ID have no such mechanism. | | | My DVD's

Well, we have to differentiate between the DiscID in the Discs section and the DiscID as the primary key in lieu of the UPC. The Discs Sections of different profiles can hold the same DiscID, but it can be used only once as the primary key. cya, Mithi | | | | Mithi's little XSLT tinkering - the power of XML --- DVD-Profiler Mini-Wiki |
