Recently was looking through my DVD Profiler collection and noticed that my entry for Bond 50 (Complete collection with Skyfall purchase from Amazon) UPC 883904301356 oddly was missing Skyfall from the box set contents listing in DVD Profiler. The DVD profiler entry overview referenced 23 movies, yet in black and white only 22 listed in the box set contents section. Thinking that was odd I set out to rectify and inserted the Skyfall disc. The disc ID is C89685300CEFAA17. DVD Profiler matched it up with a Spanish locality version of Skyfall (according to the original contributor).

I could simply add a different Skyfall, but having a bit of OCD I'd like all the disc IDs in the box set to be correct. Never have run into this before where disc IDs collided with different locality versions (if the original contributor was correct). I don't know what rules cover this situation. Would appreciate some advice from the DVD profiler community.

Hmm. Seems odd then. Mine came with it - no blank spot. Also the materials (images/text) in the current profile reference including it - "23 films on Bluray from Dr. No to Skyfall". Could be there is a UPC collision as well then.

So now what? UPC and disc ID collision?

Sorry to have muddied the waters. I'll attempt to clarify.  I own UPC 883904301356 (with Skyfall). The DVD Profiler profile for this UPC does NOT include Skyfall in the box set contents. When I attempted to add it to the box set contents it matches the disc id up with a submission the original contributor said was a Spanish locality of Skyfall.

I don't know if I should just re-edit the matching disc id profile to English, create a new English Skyfall profile with the same disc ID (if that's even possible) or just add some other blu ray profile of Skyfall whose disc id isn't the same into the box set (not my preference and probably would be rejected anyway).

It is possible, as long as their isn't a profile with the same Disc ID in the US locality.  If it is already part of another profile just add it anyways.  You'll notice that some of the other Bond movies have different images, release dates etc because they were originally contributed as part of the Volume releases.  You can just make the updates to match your release and lock it down locally.

I think that's what I'll probably (try to) do then - submit with US locality and then add to the box set afterwards. My guess is the manufacturer simply packages the same discs across various localities of the same product.


Thanks for the advice.

Yup, major studios often do this in wide releases, especially catalog releases.  I'm just surprised no one has added it yet.

I know they are blu-ray, as I own the same set (minus Skyfall).  Still surprised as it's a popular set and blu-ray drives are fairly cheap now.

It's funny, someone did submit the child to the boxset but never actually contributed the child.

Well relatively... if you want an external one (and so many people seem to use laptops not desktops nowadays) it's still about the equivalent of $100 here in the UK... and even then they often get poor revies for reliability. Plus often you will need to buy new s/w to play BDs (unless you're buying the drive *just* to be able to read disc IDs and submit them (which is very altruistic but not very likely)... plus I dare say a lot of people will say "If I'm going to watch a BD I'll watch it on the best sccreen I have not my little PC screen, so what's the point in a BD drive for the PC?

I wasn't saying everyone has them, or even should have them, but enough has them that the majority of profiles I download do have disc IDs for blu-rays.  The only ones that don't are smaller releases.  In this case, it was added to the parent, just the child was never created.  I bought it pretty much to use when contributing and viewing credits, but it was only like $30 and saves me time & energy.
