| | Posted: | | | | I was doing some digging regarding audio/subtitle info when dealing with combo releases, specifically 4K/BD releases. It seems, that based on the rules, the audio/subtitle info is supposed to pertain to the main disc in the release. In this case, the 4K disc. But, both disc IDs are supposed to be listed in the profile.
I've not found a section in the rules regarding the media type. If you select both 4K and BD, the region coding will show the code for the BD, since 4K discs do not have region codes. So, should the main 4K profile also have the BD media selected, or not? I've noticed a bug in that if only 4K is selected, the DVD 0 region code is selected, even though nothing should be displayed. But that is a bug that will never end up getting fixed and is beyond the scope of this query.
One should create a child profile based on the BD disc ID in order the list the audio and subtitle differences, then both profiles are placed into a boxed set.
Should the BD child profile only have its disc ID listed? Should only the BD media type be selected? Should the cast/crew list be included in both?
Guidance is appreciated. | | | Mr Video Productions

| | Posted: | | | | The combo set rule (at bottom of page) states to enter as a normal profile for the main media type, with included media types checked. A normal profile means standard contribution rules are applied to the main media type profile, so if there was a bonus material disc or bonus feature film disc in the combo set, they are also added to the main media profile. The child Blu-ray is also subject to standard contribution rules, however, you cannot add this optional child profile to the 4K parent profile if the parent's Blu-ray media type is disabled (the screeners will decline this change). 4K Ultra HD is an enhanced extension of the Blu-ray standard, so the potential exists for some 4K discs to be region coded. | | | | Last edited: by ObiKen |
