| | Posted: | | | | For some reason my online list seems to be missing certain boxsets/boxset contents.
My adult rating is set to: MPAA Rating: Adult and 'allow adult titles'
It says it uploads the correct number of titles
I have uploaded an empty collection and then re-uploaded my collection properly and still missing:
Alien Quadrilogy (not numbered), Alien, Aliens, Alien 3, Alien Res (Coll # 355-358), Dirty Harry Collection (not numbered) and all 5 contents (Coll # 365-369) and probably more.
Edit: I have noticed all the missing titles are raed 18; it seems to be reading them as Adult despite my settings... any advice on a fix? | | | | It is dangerous to be right in matters where established men are wrong | | | | Last edited: by Voltaire53 |

| | Posted: | | | | For some strange reason, the online collection classes all 18 certificate films as adult, regardless of how they're classed in the program.
In order to see them online, you have to allow adult titles to show in your online collection.
I think others have asked for it to be changed, but nothing so far. | | | | Last edited: by northbloke |

Thanks for the info; hopefully it will change soon because I show my online list to friends/family for Birthday purposes and would rather some of them didn't see the extensive list of Adult titles!  | | | | It is dangerous to be right in matters where established men are wrong |

| | Posted: | | | | LOL - I know what you mean. If I had any adult titles, for the time being I would put them in a separate database until this bug is resolved - not that I own any of course! |

| | Posted: | | | | Just a FYI, for those (like me) who don't know; the non-showing of 18 rated titles in the online list (unless you show Adult titles) is apparently NOT a bug but deliberate and designed to "comply with indecency laws in some areas". I don't claim to understand this (I would have thought if indecency laws were a problem then it would be more of a problem to allow setting of 'show adult' at all more than stopping a regular 18 when not showing adult) but it is the case.  Separate databases it is then; at least that's easy with DVDP 3.0 but it will mean (unless you allow them to show online) voting on adult titles won't be possible which will IMO severely restrict functionality and accuracy in future. | | | | It is dangerous to be right in matters where established men are wrong | | | | Last edited: by Voltaire53 |

| | Posted: | | | | The "My Profiler" section at Intervocative had an option to set the adult definition. It could be set to "As Set in DVD Profiler" and "Standard ('Adult' Rating or 'Adult' Genre)". Maybe we may ask to get this option back? Not that I do care, my option is set to show adult titles anyway.
EDIT: Or maybe a section option "show NC-17 (18)" for "My Profiler" would do as well. | | | | Last edited: by RHo |

| | Posted: | | | | I agree - especially as Not Rated items are being displayed!
So at the minute stuff like Lethal Weapon and American Beauty are being hidden, but extreme stuff like Nekromantik and Aftermath (with rather graphic covers) are shown!
It was a lot easier when you could define what "adult" meant for your own collection. |

| | Posted: | | | | I fully agree that this was much better handled in DVDP 2.4 (one of the very few things that was!) and I honestly believe it needs addressing differently to the way it is handled at present.
Hopefully when Ken has time he can come here and explain exactly what the problem is forcing 'hide Adult + 18' or 'show Adult + 18' as the only options rather than separating them because, as I said, I don't understand how complying with decency laws of certain regions matches the present system if we are quite happily allowed to display Adult titles if we want to anyway. | | | | It is dangerous to be right in matters where established men are wrong |

| | Posted: | | | | I had thought that this was being handled the same. It certainly makes sense that you can choose yourself what constitutes adult films - I had set this to just adult genre and that made everything very straightforward.
I could point visitors at my online collection so they could choose a film to watch when they were coming round.. and this would include 18 rated films but not not Adult genre.
Now at least I have phpDVDProfiler but this is still something which should be changed in the program. | | | | Paul |

You don't let your visitors pick adult titles to watch? Spoilsport! You'll never be invited to one of Stewie's sexy parties with that attitude!  (Family Guy reference if you don't know the show) |
