| | Posted: | | | | Hi
I have 2 databases in DVD Profiler, one for DVD's and one for Blu-Ray's.
Is it possible to combine the into 1 database?

| | Posted: | | | | Yeah, I think this would work:
1. back up the smallest of the two (let's say it's DVD) > full backup
2. open your other DB (Blu-ray in this example) and select: Restore DB
3. Instead of whole DB, select: only for these profiles and tick all profiles.
I think that should import all your DVD profiles into the Blu-ray DB, without overwritting the entire DB.
Better to be safe than sorry, so first I would make a back-up of both DB's, just in case | | | Blu-ray collection

| | Posted: | | | | Taro's descrition is correct.
During import, just make sure to un-select all those databse related settings as well. Then it will merely merge the imported profiles to the open collection. | | | Achim [諾亞信； Ya-Shin//Nuo], a German in Taiwan.

| | Posted: | | | | That's great to hear. And if you still wish to distinguish DVD from Blu-ray in your unified DB, you can create two custom category tabs: one for DVD and one for Blu-ray, check in the options that those custom categories should be included in the Owned section and you're all set: DVD tab: only DVD's Blu-ray tab: only Blu-rays Owned: DVD+Blu-ray That's how I did it and I feel it works great:  | | | Blu-ray collection

| | Posted: | | | | It helped me a lot, but I've got one question, how do you move all the dvd/brs at once. |

Either flag them manually one profile at a time by hitting space, or filter them to your liking (e.g. Ctrl&f -> Formats and then choose BD) and press Ctrl&a to flag all visible. Now Collection -> Flagged -> Move to and off you go. cya, Mithi | | | | Mithi's little XSLT tinkering - the power of XML --- DVD-Profiler Mini-Wiki |
