I have a double sided disc that has one movie on one side and another movie on the flip side. The credits in the current profile are all in one list. Would it be appropriate to seperate the credits with a divider for each movie?

Each movie should have it's own child profile with a boxset for a parent.

You have to enter each side of the DVD as a new profile by their disc ID and the case as the parent file by is UPC.

You use parent profile like a boxset (same rule, so no cast and crew) and you enter all the info on the child profile.

one exemple from my collection: Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde - Classic Double Feature contain 1 movie on each side. So I enter it like that

Parent profile (By UPC) : Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde - Classic Double Feature (012569585928)
Child profile #1 (Disc ID) : 1932 version (A4F60BB188A98B59)
Child profile #2 (Disc ID) : 1941 version (85BD31CF1FB5AD7F)

I hope that I'm not to confusing

Hal answer at the same time, but in case you don't know how to do I left mine

Doesn't make much sense to me to count the same disc twice in your collection for each side, but if those are the rules, then I guess it's been thought out. I'll probably just use dividers in my local collection and never contribute. I have two such instances. The Conan flip disc movie collection and the Babylon 5: The Gathering/ In the Beginning flip disc release as well. Just wanted to ask before I made the changes in my local profile and submitted it.

You can do this without counting the same disc twice this way:  Only give a number to the parent disc {Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde - Classic Double Feature (012569585928) in AESP_pres' example}.  Do not give a number to the child profiles - then only the Parent Profile will be counted.

It will STILL count the Profile, Ken.

You will only get a count assuming you just input and the system assigns a collection number. If you are among those users who manually assigns your collection numbers for whatever reasons, dividing up by Genre for example, then getting a count from the system...well you are SOL.
