I suppose I could just delete The Man with No Name Trilogy then keep the 3 added profiles, is this possible or no?

Ok, so I got the sorting title so the three in the trilogy are next to the box set, now how and I get the movies to be counted as 1 each and not count the box set?

Collection number next to the The Man with No Name Trilogy is 351
A Fistful of Dollars 352
For a Few Dollars More 353
The Good, the Bad and the Ugly 354

I'd like a 0 next to The Man with No Name Trilogy if it is at all possible.


thanks

Me too... I only have 41 and I think a few of those are where I have a BluRay and a DVD of the same film!

Remember that "Collection Number" and "Count As" values are two completely different fields with different purposes.

Well I am all done, my collection went from 572 to 599 after adding all of the movie profiles from my box sets, I removed any extras disc profiles so I have exactly 599 movies...my goal is to only add one more Blu-ray set to my collection this year, 10/1/12, Bond 50 from Amazon UK which will add 22 movies to my collection for ~$120.   I have accumulated way too many Blu-ray since I started collecting them in 2008 and I need to slow down. This will not be easy but I am gonna try to do it.

What exactly does "count as" do? As far as I am concerned, collection number= "count as".

The Count As effects the number of DVDs... see what I circled in the image below.



Even though it says it is number of DVDs... it is actually counting the number of profiles. So with the count as you can make it the way you want it. Set it to zero for the box set parent profile... set the child profiles to zero... or set it to any other number you wish... for whatever reason you wish.

Oh and 6240 DVDs! What does the Filtered mean and is it not always the same as the 'Total DVDs'? One other thing, are movies that are on 2 discs counted as 1 or 2 DVDs usually?

I never bothered messing with the Count As... so that is actually the number of profiles that I have... with lots of child/parent profiles.

The way I count is what I bought. So a box set of movies is counted as 1. A season set of a TV Show counts as 1. If I get a complete series set (no matter how many seasons) it counts as 1. So the way I count I have 2,957 titles in my collection.

The number that shows filtered is for when you filter on one thing. Like for example if I filter on the Genre of Action It shows...

Total DVDs: 6240    Filtered: 1061

2 movies on 1 DVD actually depends on how they are on the DVD. If it is one movie on each side then it is considered a box set and the parent is nearly empty... with the child profiles made with the Disc IDs.

If it is 2 movies on a single sided disc... unfortunately the program can't handle this yet... so it is done like a disc of TV Show episodes... with Cast and Crew done with episode dividers.
