Hi there! As i try to select any of the entries of COLOR FORMAT in the Features and Formats TAB by pressing the space-key Profiler will always select PAN & SCAN at the VIDEO FORMAT part. Additionally Pan & Scan is written without a &-Symbol... can i solve this (the first) issue on my own? regards, J!

Use the mouse.
That should solve it.
It all seems so stupid, it makes me want to give up!
But why should I give up, when it all seems so stupid?

Besides the info that doing it an other way - is this a bug or configuration?

Any helpful comments?

It doesn't seem to be a bug.  I can check/uncheck any of the checkboxes using the space bar as long as I've highlighted the appropriate item using the tab button first.

That is the space-bars job. To switch fields you should use tab/shift-tab or the cursor-keys. But the cursor keys also change the values of the dropdowns, so tab should be preferred.

It is written with an & in the english version. To rule out any problems with the translation-file switch to english and try again, or remove the &. Because if memory serves, the ampersand is a control character for those underlined letter that let you jump to Features&Formats with Alt&f. If DVD Profiler indeed uses those a single un-encoded ampersand might wreak havoc.

Not here.

Tab key cycles through all fields, shift-tab backwards, space bar then activates / deactivates any selection.

Mithi is right. Great! 

The problem comes and goes with changing language to 'Deutsch (German) - ZZ' and away. With english it works as supposed. The Problem is only a missing ampersand in the Translation file...

Thanks again!

Now when i changed the translation of 'Pan && Scan' to the same value in the translation file the error has gone.

Thanks again!

Meanwhile i already contacted the transaltor for 'GERMAN ZZ'-command (thanks to Michael_ZZ)and he confirmed the missing ampersand-symbol. As soon as there is a new base-version-file available for the translation the error will be corrected even there...
