On my "Owned" tab "Total DVDs" is 807 but "Filtered" is 806. Of course the obviouse answer would be that I have some sort of filter applied, but I don't! I've cleared the filterd several times, looked through all the poosible filters to see if something doesn't look right but just can't figure out why these two numbers are not the same.

Without any filters applied, they should be the same...right?

Any help getting this straitened out would be very much appreciated.

In DVD Profiler try going to Collection > Clear All Filters.

If that doesn't work try going to Tools > Options > Parental Control and check your settings.

Finally try a database repair Tools > Options > Utilities > Repair DVD Profiler Database.

Even if you have no other filter applied, there would still be a difference if 1 DVD is in the Adult category and the Parental Control is On.
Adult is defined in options, it can include rating and/or genre.

did you check the movies in the window Collection List at the tab:
  • Ordered
  • Wishlist
  • Sources for one or more of the changes and/or additions were not submitted. Please include the sources for your changes in the contribution notes, especially for cast and crew additions.

    Could it be the same as / similar to the "empty profile problem"?

    Maybe it's worth to export to XML and take a look...

    Thanks for everyone's help!

    -Cleared the filters...nothing
    -Turned off parental control agan, it was already off...nothing
    -Repaired databse...nothing.

    -Backed up and repaired database...Not exactly.

    When I went to restore the database I saw the one that did not have a name and unchecked it. I thought that woudl do it but, when it finished restoring...the numbers still didn't match

    Delete the empty profile.
    It all seems so stupid, it makes me want to give up!
    But why should I give up, when it all seems so stupid?

    Try restoring into a new, blank database and instead of restoring all profiles, select to choose, then select all except the blank one. That should create a new, fixed database.
    Then simply delete the damaged one.

    Thanks northbloke!
    Restoring into a new, blank database did the trick. For some reason, even though I would un-check the empty profile it would still restore it when I was using the default database. Creating a new one and deleting the default worked.

    Thanks again to everyone for thier help.

    Only a Complete Restore will overwrite the existing database. Selecting multiple profiles will only replace those. So, by selecting all but the troubled profile you overwrote a;ll profiles and kept the bad one...

    I am sorry, I should have added that to my post above ,but I trusted that the description in the linked thread might mention that detail somehow.
