Is there a registry hack to change the default "Reassign Collection Number" option settings?

My DVDs are on my shelf, sorted alphabetically by title. That's how I want my collection numbered. So every time I add another CD, I renumber. That's fine. I have modified my reports so numbers are not listed - I don't need them there, I sort by alphabetically by title.

But what is not fine is that every time I want to "Reassign Collection Numbers" I have to select the "Reassign all collection numbers" button, and the "Title" button. Why? The menu should remember my choices so I don't have to reconfigure DVD Profiler every time I use it.

What would really be nice is if DVD Profiler remembered how I use DVD Profiler, and next time I add a DVD, it would place the new DVD alphabetically by Title in my collection, then adjust the numbers automatically. Now that would be sweet.

wouldn't it just be easier to let it assign whatever the next collection number is then sort your collection list by title instead of collection number? If your sorting by title why does collection number matter?

though i agree in general there are settings throughout the program that I wish would be saved

I happen to agree about sorting your collection.  I also keep my DVD's on the shelf alphabetically by title but do not take the time to reassign numbers because the last time I did that it took a long time to sync my collection on-line and with my PDA.

Nice suggestion but I would make this part of the feature requests since several others have ask that certain settings be saved for future use.

Let's make a list of settings that we would like to be saved, for the feature request forum. I vote for HD-DVD inclusion in searches (to permanently turn it off).

This is (or can be) done already. I have my list sorted alphabetically and the collection number is only used so I can easily see which were the last few I added.

Well I sort my DVDs by STUDIO on my shelf. It would be nice to have that as a radio button option.
