I have started to Contribute my Anime collection into the database. The problem is that it is taking a long time. For example I have anime series that span over 7-10 dvd's, and it is taking along time to enter and re-enter the cast and crew even though thay are the same on every disc in the series (takes longer with the Japanese names).

Is there a way to copy the details from one DVD to another?

P.S. A lot of australian (region 4) anime isen't in the database (and I don't want to use the US versions)

you could download the US profile adapt them to go with the australian version and contribute them. Change ean, location, SRP and covers ...
Sources for one or more of the changes and/or additions were not submitted. Please include the sources for your changes in the contribution notes, especially for cast and crew additions.

I just discovered today that you can copy all cast and paste it into a different profile.  Go into the cast that has the information you want to copy.  Right click on the cast list, choose the second to bottom option which is to copy all cast.  Cancel out of that profile, go to the one you want it in, edit cast and right click again and use the paste all cast information.

Reading this, I more and more think a DVDProfiler manual would be a good idea. Copy&Paste for Cast and Crew is a feature that has been present in the Profiler for several years now.

Also some find it easier to work with my Cast & Crew Editor than to edit cast and crew inside Profiler.
It takes advantage of the Copy/Paste cast and crew functions of Profiler.
