It would be nice to have a way to search for DVD covers in both the IOS version and PC version of DVD profiler.  Some DVD's, Blurays, and other formats are not in the invelos database.  There is another iphone app that provides this feature by searching the internet for images and displaying them as thumnails.  You then select the thumbnail and it becomes the DVD cover image.  The searcg options allow for lookup in developers movie database, on local filesystem or internet "images", which I guess are found using a google images search.....

This defeats the purpose of having a controled database where cover image quality is vet before approved for release into the Invelos database. It would however be possible if this feature is only allowed on local database where said custom image cannot be sync to Invelos.

I agree with you on all counts.  Best to be for local DB (IOS and PC) only.  It would help with quite a few downloaded (non-US) releases and/or pre-releases that have no corresponding Invelos database entries

Well....
This is old
I have DVDs with no covers
Something is better than nothing!
Let me upload covers fron my iPad (camera/scan)
You want to approve before entering into database..... fine

UPC 7 74212 10145 8 the diplomat
I'd love to give you the covers... Add to the database.... But I don't own a PCI
So.... Let me do it with an iPad.... PLEASE!
I've been waiting for someone....anyone to upload covers.... 3 years....still waiting
IOS users can be a help (if you let us)
Why can't this be done?
Other than this "annoyance" the app works well
The very least....IOS users should be able to "paste" their own art into "blank" holders (for their own use) without uploads or overwrites from data base.
Thanks
