| | Posted: | | | | You can put it in using a fake EAN. Just need to make sure you don't contribute it accidentally. | | | | Guns don't kill people. Hammers do. |

| | Posted: | | | | As for a future version of the program supporting this, it's always possible but I don't think it is highly likely.

| | Posted: | | | | I use the real ean, but change the locality of one of them. Obviously still *NEVER* contribute the one with the wrong locality. | | |

| | Posted: | | | | Hallo ,
I`ve allready done it. I removed the EAN completely from the first DVD.
Then tried to add the same DVD again. Still getting the message that
the DVD is already in my collection.
As far as I know in 2.X Version it was possible.
Thank you and my regards

| | Posted: | | | | Obviously he already has one in his collection with the EAN...can't he just add the duplicate using Disc ID? I have a couple of duplicates, gifts that I can't get rid of...other than tossing them  , in my collection with no problem. Same with box sets (child using Disc ID...standalone using UPC.) Perhaps I'm not understanding something  . | | | | My WebGenDVD online Collection |

| | Posted: | | | | So can someone explain to the New Guy how to have two copies of the same movie in my collection? I have several for various reasons. I've seen it alluded to here, but not spelled out. |

| | Posted: | | | | As said previously add the first using the EAN/UPC and the second with the DISC ID as the EAN/UPC that way they have different EAN numbers | | | <---------Mithrandir, Laverne and Shirley

Essentially what it says in this thread. You can't have two EANs the same in your collection (as i'm sure you have found out) so the options are: 1) add something in the Notes field to say you have multile copies (basic) 2) add a tag called 'I have two' and set it for the EAN where this is the case (allows you to filter on this) 3) add the second one by Disc-ID - Add by EAN normally - Change EAN to be 'use disc-ID of disc in drive' (with the disc in the drive). IIRC it's the bottom command on the 'DVD' option (I don't have DVDP on this machine so can't check) - Add second one by EAN (since you've now overwritten the old EAN with the disc-ID there is no longer a conflict) 4) add the second using a 'dummy' EAN - As above bu Change EAN to be '0 000000 000001' or similar 5) add the second using a 'dummy' locality - As above but change Locality to "Somewhere rare" 6) Sell the copies on EBay and use the money to buy a disc you don't have  Of course in cases 3-5 NEVER contribute the data to the main database  | | | | It is dangerous to be right in matters where established men are wrong |
