| | Posted: | | | | This is, I guess, a simple request  I often search the Invelos database for information about subtitles. If a disc does not contain subtitles then it would be useful, if the person that makes the contribution could select "None". |

| | Posted: | | | | I always thought none would be a good option. This way you could tell if there really isn't any on the disc or if the work just wasn't done yet. | | | | Pete |

| | Posted: | | | | There should be further options:
[ ] None
[ ] Uncompleted
[ ] Pre-Release Info
[ ] Info only from Cover
You could also combine, like [x] None and [x] Info only from Cover. | | | | Don't confuse while the film is playing with when the film is played. [Ken Cole, DVD Profiler Architect] |

I don't think that this is really a use case since subtitles are only checkboxes. Who'd check "english" and "incomplete" and not check "spanish" and "french" to make 'em complete? Quoting bbbbb: Quote:
[ ] Pre-Release Info
[ ] Info only from Cover This is a problem we always have, may it be with aspect ratios, audio tracks or running time. Singling out subtitles seems rather arbitrary to me. | | | Karsten

| | Posted: | | | | Good database design mandates that you can differentiate between "not entered" and valid values. Ergo +1.
And subtitles is not the only place where this rule should be applied. | | | My freeware tools for DVD Profiler users.

| | Posted: | | | | The check boxes could be tri-state (present/non-present/unverified(default), but then I hope it also includes a check/uncheck all feature or there will be a lot of clicking... | | | | First registered: February 15, 2002 | | | | Last edited: by Nexus the Sixth |

I'm thinking about those people who do not find Suomi, Magyar, Iw or Hrvatski in their list of Subtitles. The "Other" option fills that need. |
