I had a question and couldn't find it through the search so I apologize if it's been asked before.

On Dr. Seuss' Horton Hears A Who (cartoon version - UPC 883929-075799, there is a bonus feature film "In Search of Dr. Seuss."  I know that through the rules you can make an alternate verison for this.  My question is which way do you handle it:

1) Create an alternate version based on the UPC--the box set contents will just contain the Bonus Film, info for main Horton feature will be on main disc in profile.

2) Create a box set profile for the main feature too using Disc ID, and create alternate profile for Bonus Film based off of that Disc ID.  So there would be two child profiles, and remove all info from main profile based off box set rules.

I initially had it as option 1 but received a no vote so I wasn't sure.  To make matters more confusing, there is also a DVD/Digital Copy disc included, but my DVD Profiler won't read it so I can't add it to the profile.

Hopefully this made sense--thanks in advance for your help!

I would see it as a modification to #1.

1) Create an alternate version based on the Disc ID--the box set contents will just contain the Bonus Film, info for main Horton feature will be in the parent UPC profile.

If the bonus feature film is on the same disc as the main feature, you should create the alternate profile baseed on the disc ID, not the UPC.
