| Posted: | | | | As we nog have Flemish in DVD Profiler as language, I wonder when we use Flemish, and when we use Dutch. There are a 2 cases:
1. We use Flemish only when it's mentioned on the cover (most Animation pictures) 2. We also use Flemish if the movie/TV series was made in Belgium (dutch speaking part) (eg: Flikken, Witse, F.C. De Kampioenen,...)
What's the opinion of the other people from Belgium and The Netherlands?
Personnaly I prefer only option 1, but it's best to have it discussed before we recontribute (as soon as it's possible of course..) | | | |

| Posted: | | | | I think it is pretty straight forward myself: only use Flemish if the cover / DVD menu gives it as a language option.
The (possible) problem with option 2 is that although a film / series was made in Belgium, that does not automatically mean that everyone in the cast speaks Flemish. For instance in Flikken Boudewijn de Groot appears who speaks Dutch, not Flemish. |

It's a dialect. Seems to be an exception, any other dialects in DVDP 3.5? What difference, other than semantics, does it make? If a film has an audio track in Flemish why wouldn't someone want to identify it regardless of if it is a "language" or "dialect?" | | | Another Ken (not Ken Cole) Badges? We ain't got no badges.

| Posted: | | | | I'm very happy that Flemish is in the database now. So we don't have to use 'Other' anymore in the profiles. | | | |

| Posted: | | | | If the DVD lists NEDERLANDS as language, DUTCH should be selected in the profile. If the DVD lists VLAAMS as language, FLEMISH should be selected in the profile. | | | View my collection at http://www.chriskepolis.be/home/dvd.htm
