| | Posted: | | | | Hi there In the rush to contribute, I made some bad contributions that violated the rules.  The problem with them is that I always use the original movie title on the title, ignoring the region and language of the DVD. So my bad contributions are: UPC 7-892770-004240: 12 Monkeys. The brazilian title is 12 Macacos UPC 7-892770-005308: Almost Famous. The brazilian title is Quase Famosos: Edição Especial I lucked out on 7-892110-015370 cause Amadeus is Amadeus  so, sorry again. Unfortunately, I won't be able to contribute my region 4 titles (about 40% of the collection) cause I like to have orinigal titles on the title (after all, it makes sense. I arrange my DVDs alphabetically. How am I gonna find any title if I'm unsure of the regional language title?) All this makes me think of a nifty feature for the next version. I'll post it in the appropriate forum edit: Actually, it wasn't such a good idea.. I was gonna suggest having the option to switch original title/dvd title around.. but it would cause all sorts of confusion with published lists, plugins, etc.... so I didn't post it. | | |  | | | | Last edited: by xjames |

| | Posted: | | | | First of all: I'd advise you to change the titles back temporarily and recontribute so the online profiles are correct. Especially since you caused the error. After that, you can name your own profiles what you want.
Second: There are two titles available. DVD title and original title. You can use either locally for your own title if you want to (if the one you want doesn't match the one on the cover). In Tools -> Options -> Display you can choose only to show fx. original title. If you store your localized title there, it will be the one that shows in your collection.
Be careful what you contribute and remember that you can choose what parts of the profile to contribute and what parts not to contribute when you submit.
