I currently have my DVD's Cataloged in DVD Profiler.  I have started downloading Movies via ITunes and have gotten some digital copies included with Blue Rays that i have purchased.  I have searched high and low for a way to get these into DVD profiler and be able to play them from within DVD profiler.  I have been an avid user for years and like DVD profiler but may have to switch if i can't find a solution.  MyMovies will allow the addition of a folder and it will go through and add those files/movies to my collection.  I don't want to have to maintain 2 different databases.  Any help would be appreciated.  Thanks in advance.

What you can do is add an existing DVD/BR profile for the movies... or create a profile by scratch (add  by title but uncheck "download from Invelos" from the lower left side of the window) and then add the file to My links... this way the trailer button will play the film for you.

I guess i will show my lack of knowing the features of this software because i can't find where to add the file to " My Links".  Thanks again.

once there... there is an add link icon on the upper right corner... looks like a world with a green plus sign. Click that and you can add the file from there.

I think the newest release added a new feature to my links where you can just drag and drop the file. Though I haven't tried that yet.

Yeah... I put an icon on my toolbar for it....

See what I circled in black in the image below..



Then click Add or Remove Buttons then click customize... see image below.



That brings up a pop up... go to the commands tab... click online... then find my links... then you can drag it to where you want it on your toolbar.



Hope that helps. 
Pete
