I've got a DVD in my collection where the image was correct the first time. When I chose the option to automatically update images with what is in the database, one of the images got replaced with a "double feature" image. The DVD in question is not a double feature. I thought that the easiest way to fix this problem would be to sort the list by collection number, click the DVD that needed to be fixed and then select the option to insert a collection number.

So, the DVD which needed to be fixed was number 13. I had the program shift everything down one number and had intended to just insert another profile for the same DVD and then delete the incorrect one. The only thing that successfully worked was shifting everything down one number. When I tried to add a DVD to my collection, that option wouldn't open. When I moved the mouse around on the screen, I got an hourglass. When I brought the windows task manager up, it didn't indicate that the program had stopped responding.

What happened here? Why couldn't I add another DVD to my collection after inserting a number?

I don't know why the program froze like that, but your idea wouldn't have worked anyway as you're only allowed one copy of each DVD in your collection at a time.
It sounds like someone has replaced the cover images with wrong ones, so even re-downloading won't help as you'll just get the new scans again.
Unfortunately it sounds like your only option is to replace the cover scans yourself if you have a scanner or if you don't wait for someone else to fix the profile.

You also didn't need to insert a new disc number 13 - you can just sort by title and leave the disc number alone.

What DVD was it?  Someone might have that title in their collection and might be able to get it fixed.

The DVD in question was 'Executive Decision.' Apparently, at some point, the studio released this as a double feature. I forgot what the other title was, but somehow the disc was associated with an image that was a double feature. At the time that I got the DVD, it was just a single disc, but I think it was double sided with full screen on one side and widescreen on the other.

I had incorrectly assumed that by deleting an entry, that the numbering below the row which was deleted would get renumbered.    -- apparently that wasn't the case. I deleted the DVD from my collection and then re-added it, but selected the entry from the title list that matched the version of the DVD I have.

Executive Decision, UPC 085391421122 R1, appears to have scans online that may work for you
