Hi,

i have a lots of DVD's and some od them i haven't seen yet...

I want to set a "flag" to my unseen DVD's so i can search/filter for all of my DVDs i have never seen.

Is there a way to do that?

Thanks!
Joerg

If you use the "Watched By" feature of the program you can use the inverse search in the Personal tab of the Filter window (if not visible, enable it under View->Windows)

If you don't use the "Watched By" feature, do the following:
Go to the "Set Tags" window (if not visible, enable it under View->Windows).
Right-click on an empty spot, select "Edit Tags".
Create a tag "Unwatched".

Now you can either select the unwatched profiles one by one and set the tag or you flag them by pressing the space bar. When you're done, go to Collection->Flagged->Edit Tags.

Afterwards you can search for that tag in the filter window in the Tags tab

Your best bet is to use tags. See the link in my signature for some help on how to do that.

Another option would be to go through your collection and give each movie you have seen a "Watched" date, but that may mean putting some imaginary dates in, since I'm assuming you don't  remember the date of all the titles you've seen.

Dolly's not alone. You can also clone profiles.
You've got questions? You've got answers? Take the DVD Profiler Wiki for a spin.

Ok, thanks a lot!

Is there a way to "enable" the Tag for all profiles or do i have to set the checkbox for every profile by hand?

I made a Tag called "Seen" and i want to enable it for all my profiles, but by default it is disabled...
I i dont want to enable the Tag for 600 DVD by hand...:-)

Thanks for helping!

Collection / Flags / Invert Flags.  That should flag all profiles.

Then click the Set Flags tab on the bottom, and set the Seen flag.

Collection / Flags / Unflag All.

(replaced flag by tag)

Unless I am mistaken that would work for only the selected profiles. He needs to use Collection->Flagged->Set Tags

Yes.  Of course.  Sorry for the error. 

"Collection / Flagged / Edit Tags."

Flags...Tags....  Who can keep track!
