Depends how you use collection numbers (if any) but you can try sorting by number and look for gaps. From there you might conclude what's missing.

Another option is to look for an older backup. The second oldest is stored with the extension .bak in your backup folder unless you choose not to rename existing backups for some reason.

Just rename it (remove the .bak extension) and restore it the normal way.

Look in the Windows folder where you store your backup files. Depending if you use the default name or use your own, you should see something like:

backup.dpb
backup.dpb.bak

The top is the most recent backup file. Rename or move it to for example backup1.dpb
Then rename the second to just backup.dpb
Open DVD Profiler and select this file when you restore.

Ok. Just for future reference here's an easier way:

Open DVD Profiler and select File->Restore Database. In the dialogue window pick restore from specific location and Browse to your backup folder. Enter an asterisk (*) in the filename box and hit return. You should now see both files and you can pick the one with the extension .bak
