For child profiles of discs that are part of a box set, but not individually packaged, what do we use as the title?

I'm assuming this is for a movie boxed set and not for a television series, so I would use the DVD label over the rear cover, if there is a difference.

In a normal world, I suppose we would use the titles of the concerned movies in the concerned language... Here, I suppose we'll find something useless for the majority of users...

Even when they abbreviate "Star Wars: Episode V - The Empire Strikes Back" to "Star Wars V: The Empire Strikes Back" on every disc of the Blu-ray set?

This happens with every SW episode; they enlarged the Roman number, which made the "Episode" out of place visually.

IF the titles are not included on the front cover of the DVD, I'd use the titles from the film's credits.

If 'Episode' is in the title, it should be included. If it is not, it should not be added. The rules are quite clear on that.

Some sets list the contents on the back of the case, so I would use that first.  If the title isn't listed there, then I would go with what hal wrote above.
No dictator, no invader can hold an imprisoned population by force of arms forever.
There is no greater power in the universe than the need for freedom.
Against this power, governments and tyrants and armies cannot stand.

It all seems so stupid, it makes me want to give up!
But why should I give up, when it all seems so stupid?

Whatever option or solution is the most useless.
99.9% of all cat plans consist only of "Step 1."

The one under, what I am guessing is, the list of what is contained in the set.

Better than we got with Tron, when the people who won the vote argued we should use the title from the front of the case, even it's the title of the set, not the movie.
