| Posted: | | | | I've got a number of variations for this disc of my set, beginning with the front cover art:
F/A-18 HORNET anytime...anywhere! (all lower case here)
Back cover middle, large: F/A-18 HORNET ANYTIME...ANYWHERE! (in all caps, and anytime/anywhere in blue vs grey)
Back cover, bottom ... F/A-18 Hornet "Anytime...Anywhere!"
The title menu:
Always Ready (not found anywhere else ...) F/A-18 HORNET "Anytime...Anywhere..." (no exclamation point, and extra periods ..."
Custom container / case art: F/A-18 Hornet "Anytime...Anywhere" (no exclamation point)
Then there's the "discs" page ... Drive: J: (F-18 Hornet) Side A Description: F/A-18 Hornet: Anytime...Anywhere
These differences in punctuation, capitalization, different words, etc., etc., is just driving me crazy. |

| Posted: | | | | Most of these are irrelevant since we are supposed to use the title from the front cover. Other than that I would suggest using standard capitalisation rules for your language/locality. | | | First registered: February 15, 2002 | | | Last edited: by Nexus the Sixth |

| Posted: | | | | The Cover Art The Main Menu Isn't "anytime...anywhere..." sort of a tag line? What's your pick for DVD title? And for this one: If you completely ignore what's on the back cover or anywhere else, what's your DVD title for this disc? Here's the rear cover: The original submitter used: "Classic Aviation: 1909 - 1924" as the DVD Title, and, "Classic Aviation DVD01: 1909 - 1924." as the Side A description I'm guessing this should have been "main feature"?? The Disc art was: CLASSIC ---------- AVIATION FILMS DVD1: 1909 - 1924 ---------- The root menu is: CLASSIC Aviation Films Vol. 1. |

| Posted: | | | | As iPatsa notes, the title must come from the front of the case, so all else is irrelevant. Also, we use standard capitalization when in all caps. I would go with:
F/A-18 Hornet: anytime...anywhere!
and

F/A-18 Hornet: anytime...anywhere! No, there's no distinction for "when in all caps" - instead we use standard title capitalisation, meaning that every word starts with a capital except "joining words" ( such as "of", "the", "a", "in"). As such, the title here should be formatted as: F/A-18 Hornet: Anytime...Anywhere!" | | | Last edited: by T!M |

I should have gone back and read it. | | | No dictator, no invader can hold an imprisoned population by force of arms forever. There is no greater power in the universe than the need for freedom.
