http://www.invelos.com/Forums.aspx?task=contributionnotes&type=DVD&ProfileUPC=883904110132
This is a five disc boxed set of the TV show which comes with Disc 1 & 2 in a slim case, Disc 3 & 4 in a slim case and Disc 5 in a slim case all inserted into one slipcase.
The profile lists each disc as a separate child profile for 5 profiles. Shouldn't there only be three child profiles? One each for each slim case?
Many thanks |

| | Posted: | | | | Thanks for the rule clarification. But this just lends the question ... why?
We don't create a child profile of a two disc movie release found in a single case (or are we now?) so why are we treating TV shows differently?
And I'm not trying to be difficult, just wondering ... |

| | Posted: | | | | Because a two-disc movie (like LOTR) is still the same movie. But TV show disc 1 usually contains different episodes than disc 2.
If there were two discs in one amaray (let's say part 1 and 2 of Hot Shots) we would create 2 profiles. If there were two different movies on a double-sided disc, we would create 2 profiles.
So when it comes down to TV shows, we also break it down to disc level. | | | Karsten

And I'm not trying to be difficult, just wondering ... We treat TV shows differently because of the large amount of data that each episode contains. A film will have one set of credits. A disc for a TV series could have 3, 4, 5, 10 sets of credits...depending on the number of episodes on the disc. Now multiply that by 2, for sets with two discs in a single case, and you can see the problem. | | | No dictator, no invader can hold an imprisoned population by force of arms forever.
