At the moment the Blu-Ray Titles are all mixed in with the dvds it would be nice to have all blu-ray together and all dvds together for those who collect both.

You can already set up different databases, so one for DVDs and one Blu-Rays. You can't have them simultaneously open. To do that you could assign DVD collection numbers, oh say up to 10,000 and Blu-rays above 10,000.

You can also define 2 flags. 1 for DVD's en 1 for Blu-Ray. Filtering based on flags enables you to display either format of your collection.

In the collection list, you can display "Media Type", and sort on it. Without any other action, you have all your blu-rays and all yours DVDs separated.

with your method you only need 1 flag - set = DVD, unset = Blu ray. Both can be sepaartely searched on.

Alternatively just sort your collection list on Media Type, ascending puts Blu-ray last, descending first.

You don't need to flag Blu-rays. You can filter by format.

I have my own method of separating them as seen in my signature.
Get the CSVExport and Database Query plug-ins here.
Create fake parent profiles to organize your collection.

Multiple lists would achieve this 

As for sorting by media type, thats unsuitable if you have more than a few BDs and you want to change the sort order of your BDs.  Filters are your best bet for the time being.

I just started my collection number at #1 for DVDs and #500 for Blu-Rays. (I own about 150 DVDs and 10 Blu-Rays, never bought any HD-DVD).
