| | Posted: | | | | I'm close to purchasing a license for DVD profiler but I have one major concern. Can DVD profiler handle digital downloads? (eg, a purchased digital movie from Amazon.com). I have purchased quite a few digital-only movies through some great deals I've found and would like to have the movie in my collection but would like it noted that it digital only.
Am I crazy? or is this doable? |

| | Posted: | | | | This can be done with manual profiles. You can download an existing DVD or Blu-ray profile, which will have all the data for that film, then convert it to a manual profile. | | | No dictator, no invader can hold an imprisoned population by force of arms forever.
There is no greater power in the universe than the need for freedom.
Against this power, governments and tyrants and armies cannot stand.

| | Posted: | | | | Additional to the above:
You can make custom media types, so just make a media type "Digital Download" or similar, and you've got a way to track them with DVDP.
If you want, you've got also the possibility to make a custom collection category for this movies. |

Am I crazy? or is this doable? Now that you know how, your next question will be: can I play them? Answer: yes. See the LoadDVD plugin, and the Layouts Forum for ways of playing trailers and other media directly from within DVD Profiler. | | | Thanks for your support.

| | Posted: | | | | Another idea instead of making a manual profile would be to choose one DVD/BR version. (Good would be a popular version)
Change all things that are different at the download media. (local of course)
Then lock all those fields.
Pro:
- You'll automatically get all updates made on this profile (For example cast and crew gets often updates: New Birth Years, New crew roles, ...)
Con:
- You won't be able to add this version of the movie a second time
- It's listed with UPC (Depending on you if you want to see it as con) |

| | Posted: | | | | Welcome Special K!!! @VirusPil: nice ideas. Will use them myself. Your "Con" was a mild one, cause you can always go back and change to manual later, so I like it also. | | | Thanks for your support.

| | Posted: | | | | Thank you guys! You've made me feel welcome already!  I can't wait to get busy loading all my DVDs. I used the free edition many moons ago and stopped keeping track of what I had. I need to take sort through what I already have loaded and what I don't. |
