Sorry I just realised this is more suited to Layouts, Anyroad I have down loaded the Showroom layout a it suits the best. Im assuming I have to edit the code somewhere in "View,Html Windows, Edit" So Im presented with the Showroom code Eek...

As an ardent user of Showroom I too would like the possibility to edit those pop-ups.
But I'm afraid they are not part of the layout, but hardcoded into DVD Profiler. If you use the standard-layouts with collection-list switched to Thumbnails the same pop-up is shown.

Unfortunately I don't think it's possible to edit that pop-up, though it would be nice.
Have you looked at the custom view option? You may be able to design something that has the location and slot info discretely under the thumbnail for example.

I roughed up a simplified solution that lets me browse the covers on any of my computers, IT's HERE The second group of numbers is the Slot number, First is collection number.

I exported the data from DVDP into a csv that is then imported in to Excel delete the un'needed info keeping the Front cover image name and slot number and collection number. Then created a formula to create a file name based on Collection Number-Slot Number.jpg then exported the data to a text file using | "Pipe Symbol" as a separator. Download Bulk Rename Utility for Windows and use the text file to rename all the front covers. Then imported all the images in to an Aperture project in OSX, Aperture Sorts them by the name and then published it.

I had considered using Cooliris https://www.cooliris.com/ but for the web enabled version it uses Flash, Which is no good to me on the iPad. I just wanted Coverflow with Slot number. Something to tie me over until an iPad version of DVDp is out.
