Except he isn't lying. I said "when I catch a contributor lying." That has nothing to do with this specific contribution. --------------- |

| | Posted: | | | | I won't say the Contributor is lying. I wikll say if he isn't lying he clearly has not read the rules. The credits clearly list Normann Burton not Norman. So we follow what the credits say NOT wikipedia, IMDb nor any other third party source...only the film credits. Nw should Normann be able yo be documented as the same person as Norman, which it can be done in this case, even a simple visual id, then we can use the CLT to establish a Commonly Credited name, per Profiler, not per Wiki, IMDb nor any other third party source. | | | ASSUME NOTHING!!!!!!

Who give's a rat's a$$ ??? His problem wasn't with DVD Profiler. It was with 3rd party software. invelos can't test every single program on the market to see if there will be a conflict with DVD Profiler. Forum member's offered the user help and his problem was solved. Goody for him that he went with other software...his loss.
And that's great that the users once again come to the rescue.

And why do you keep bumping your worthless thread? Does it help you sleep better at night?
Nobody forces you to read it. I'll repeatedly bump it until Invelos have the gall to actually respond to things that should be responded to.
Every day, people put a lot of work into helping build a database. Sure, they are doing it for themselves, but they don't have to take the time to upload it. One of the main selling points of Profiler is the amount of data already included (by members). Is it really too much to ask that Invelos take five minutes every now and again to guide people when help is required to help them make their product better? That's all this thread is about.
The one time I did get a response in this thread, I was told to direct questions to the the support section, where they are 'forwarded' and never responded to.
I submit for one reason and one reason only, to help out other users who I have benefited from.
As I've said many times in this thread. I have had excellent value for money (and would even pay an annual fee if the support side improved) and the program is excellent BUT WHERE IS THE HELP FOR THE MEMBERS AND GUIDANCE ON GENERAL ASPECTS OF THE RULES??? It's a kick in the face to the userbase that they are ignored but then brown-nosers stand up for them at every opportunity so they continue with it. Sam: I have to agree with 8Ball. And you are still a relative newb to Profiler, a refugee from another site as it were. MOST of the support over the years has come from the user community. Give Ken a break for crying out loud. Look at some of the support questions, especially the common ones. Like I paid for registration where is the key?, etc. | | | ASSUME NOTHING!!!!!!

Actually he states 'wikipedia' and 'credits' as the source... Well then perhaps that supports the lying claim. We have a clear screen shot of the actual credit. And wiki says differently. Now to be fair from which copy did the screen shot originate, it is known that sometimes the credits will differ within versions or localities. So is the screen shot of the copy in question or are we looking at a US release against a Euro release for example. This is all information that needs to be considered. | | | ASSUME NOTHING!!!!!!

1) Anamorphic obviously doesn't aply to the HD version (since there is no such thing) so anyone looking at the profile will know it belongs to the DVD Pleas elaborate. I use a scaler and when I put 1080p24 Blu-Ray through it, my scaler needs to be on the "anamorphic" setting to get the screen formatted properly. | | | | 99.9% of all cat plans consist only of "Step 1." |

Please to do some research and self education relative to Blu-ray. Anamorphic remains an issue for DVDs but it did NOT continue on with Blu-Ray.

| | Posted: | | | | Spelling and reading errors are very easy to do. It's just as likely that the contributor read the credit wrong and double checked a second source before contributing the change.
Private messages are a good way to clear up matters and I often use them if either of us needs clarification.
Lying in the contribution notes is a serious matter. If a contributor has deliberately lied in their contribution notes all of their contributions become suspect. |

I could be wrong but I do not believe anamorphic exists anywhere in Blu-Ray, it essentially is not needed to improve the resolution of the imagem which is its purpose in dvd. | | | ASSUME NOTHING!!!!!!

From Russia With Love is letter box. It's in it's proper widescreen format. Of course, it's proper widescreen format is 1.66:1, which you probably don't see as often as 2.35:1, 1.85:1 or 1.78:1. Maybe the not-so-standard aspect ratio throws you off, but that doesn't make it "not anamorphic": as others have pointed out, there's simply no such thing as "anamorphic" on Blu-ray. The picture is just widescreen, or it's not. | | | | Last edited: by T!M |

Give Ken a break for crying out loud. Look at some of the support questions, especially the common ones. Like I paid for registration where is the key?, etc. No, I won't give Ken a break. The fact I 'am' a refugee means sweet fook all and I would not say a user of ny program is a 'newbie' after over three years. I read a lot of the support questions and it's a shock that Invelos is completely faceless. They tell you to go to support at the top, support asks you to post in the forums, where you get ZERO help from Ken. It is 100% disgusting. Again, I stand by the fact the product is awesome, BUT... the users truly make it worth having and if Ken doesn't give a toss about helping us, then we are always going to have pointless discussions where people disagree how things should be entered and we get repeated submissions going back and forth. The lack of any face by Invelos is bollocks. |
