| Posted: | | | | Currently on the mainpage of your local (at least mine), the Last Watched date column and the DVD Release date column display in the Day/Month/Year format (ex: 07/04/2012 for April 7th, 2012). I don't know if this is the proper way of writing a date in this format, I don't care, it confuses me. I much prefer the Month/Day/Year format, just for personally, how I speak. I always say April 7th, 2012. I don't say The 7th of April, 2012. So I'm always confused looking at these dates. I could've sworn they used to display in the Month/Day/Year format, but with the last program update, they no longer do. Is there a simple way I can re-arrange this in my local to display it the way I'd prefer it? Thanks in advance for any help. | | | The night is calling. And it whispers to me soflty come and play. |

| Posted: | | | | Date display is not something that could be set in DVDProfiler. It is using the Windows locality settings.
So if the date-format in DVDProfiler doesn't match your local default it is most likely that your Windows installation got caught in a known Win7-OEM-Bug.
To fix it: - Set the locality of your system to USA (via control panel of Windows) - Restart - Set locality back to Canada - Restart
Problem should be gone now. But only if MM/DD/YYYY is the default date format of Canada. If not, simply change the date format to the desired value within your Windows locality settings. | | | It all seems so stupid, it makes me want to give up! But why should I give up, when it all seems so stupid?
