Since this (very nice and handy tool) not is updated automatically (with new DVD's), but gradually is built by members, not all, specially new DVD's are included when I try to enter movie.

Mostly I select the same DVD, but from sweden, norway or GB (I'm danish). To have it in my database, even if it's not stricktly correct.

I think it would be nice to have a feature, to filter by DVD-nationality, in order to later correct this.
Maybe as a plug-in.

Why don't you correct it immediately after you have added the profile? Simply add the DVD and then choose DVD -> Change Locality and (if necessary) DVD -> Change UPC.

Good idea. Found one "wrong" item, and as suggested changed the EAN (European kind of UPC). So far so good. But it's still a big job to locate the "wrong" items. My collection has nearly 1500 items.

I could still  use a filter by nationality to isolate the "wrong" items.

I think a filter for Locality is a good idea and wouldn't mind seeing it either.

Yes, I agree, it would be a good filter.

In the meantime, use this:

I'd like a filter by locality too 

And a filter by case type would be helpful too (at least for me, as part of my collection is sorted by case type)

For DJ Doena:
FilterForLocality.vshost.exe crashes when try to run it. (Win XP pro)
FilterForLocality.exe: Does the trick, but a bit slow way to do it.

Thanx for your effort.

vshost.exe isn't a runnable program, its mainly for debugging and such
