| Posted: | | | | Everyone is hung up on tags ... I don't want to us tags I shouldn't have to use tags . The results I want should be gained by default from the program without adding any tags or anything from the community ... I may be a little scatter brained as to getting my point accros because im doing 3+ things at the same time but I'm very sure of what I want to be listed and displayed and this program can't do that at this time. |

Everyone is talking about tags because it is currently the only way to get clilose to what you want. And it will work. You could decide to make srp your value, not perfect for what you want but it to will work.
We can't make things the way you want, we can only suggest ways to kind of get there for now. Now matter how much you fuss, what you want is not going to happen tomorrow, or I would guess in the next version. I remember waiting 5 Yeats to get better crew data than just director. All you can do is wait and being reallistic I don't see anyone clamoring to say hey great idea. Tag you are it all by yourself, just wait. No pun intended btw | | | ASSUME NOTHING!!!!!!

| Posted: | | | | Once again I understand all what is being said. what I want is being provided by another program by default.The competition is doing this and more shouldn't dvdp users ask for close to the same thing if not more? instead of relying on close but not perfect . |

I'm very sure of what I want to be listed and displayed and this program can't do that at this time. People are just trying to help you with a workaround until the program is 100% to your liking. If you don't want to be a little flexible until that time perhaps it is best to move on. --------------- |

| Posted: | | | | I am perfectly happy with a" it can't be done right now" I am flexible all this stated with " why can't this be done with dvdp " . And telling someone " it better if you just move on " is in bad form just because I want more than a Band-Aid as solution to my question? If questions like this are not asked then how will they know what the buyer wants and is willing to pay for ? | | | Last edited: by kingzombie |

| Posted: | | | | Seems to me that what you are asking for isn't something most users really care about. You also seem to feel that you are entitled to the program being exactly what you want it to be, when in reality it is designed to meet the the majority of needs of the majority of people. I wouldn't be against adding the fields you requested, but I personally don't have a need for them and IMO Ken's time can be better spent on other needed improvements.
People have suggested tags because it would be an easy solution for most of the issues you seem to be having. You keep mentioning other products that already have it, so why don't you just use those instead? | | | HDTV: 52" Toshiba Regza 52XV545U AVR: Onkyo TR-707 Speakers: Paradigm Monitor 7 v6, CC-190 & Atom Monitors Subwoofer: Definitive Technology ProSub 800 BD/DVD: Oppo BDP-93 (Region Free) HD PVR: Motorola DXC3400 500GB w/ 1TB Expander BD/DVD/Game: 250GB PS3 Slim DVD/Game: 250GB XBox 360 Elite Special Edition (Black) Game: Wii Remote: Logitech Harmony One w/ PS3 Adapter WHS: Acer H341 Windows Home Server |

| Posted: | | | | King I have used the program for about 12 years now and watched these forums just as long. And in all that time you are the first usertthat I can recall making a request if this nature. The first and no one is beating down the door to say yeah me too. I can see the merits of what you want, but the program has a long way to go before its ready. For example, multiple cover possibilities, any collector worth his salt would want to be able to determine precisely which version of a release he might own.and this is one of the biggest discriminators. Right now we can only do one cover image online per upc, and that is only one issue. | | | ASSUME NOTHING!!!!!! CBE, MBE, MoA and proud of it. Outta here

Maybe because no such program exists?! |

| Posted: | | | | King, maybe you should join the feature request for custom fields because I doubt you'll ever get a fixed field that says "DVD still sealed: X" | | | Karsten DVD Collectors Online
