I'm trying to update the cast and crew for Las Vegas: Season 5, episode 1 and 2 are combined in the first Episode Index on the DVD with the title "A Hero Ain't Nothing But a Sandwich / Shrink Rap" this title will not fit in the Divider as it is too long. How do I contribute this do I add two dividers for episode 1 I can do this for the cast but not the crew. Or maybe I can just split episode 1 and 2 and contribute them seperately. There is only one set of beginning credits and one set of end credits.

I can't seem to find the thread now... but when this was brought up last it was pretty much agreed that people prefer to use just one divider. and just let it cut off. That is what I been doing for long titles.

I'm actually currently entering the Canadian version of this into the system (inbetween school and life and the Olympics though, it's going really really slowly...) and I've done exactly what Addicted has suggested (which is what I think the U.S. profile currently has).

Let it cut off. The divider fits the entire first episode title into it.

Enter it as "A Hero Ain't Nothing But a Sandwich" and leave it at that.
The night is calling. And it whispers to me soflty come and play.

You can create two dividers in the Crew section.

Just create an empty section with the first part of the title and then create another section with the second part of the title and put the Crew information in this second divider only.

When viewed through DVDProfiler it looks like two dividers together.

I am using two dividers for the episodes I have been doing.  While it doesn't look great, I don't feel right about leaving some of the information out.

I agree with Pete: just use one divider per episode. Luckily though, I believe we're given more space for these in v3.6 (now in beta), right?

Agree with T!M, Merrik and Pete. Only one divider per episode.

This is what I do as well.  Fortunately, this isn't a frequent problem, and v3.6 does lengthen the field even more.

For me it certainly is: generally, I find myself running out of space at least for one episode in almost every TV season I own.

I do not like to see anything cut off. I would much prefer to see the entire title even if it takes two or more dividers.

Or you could have just passed on his circumcision.
