| Posted: | | | | Quoting Addicted2DVD: Quote: While writing the rules this is something we went over and over in multiple threads. And when it came time for a decision from Ken he decided to go even stricter then any of us was fighting for and went with no UPC then no profile. Another irritating rule from the First Age. But now we have alternate versions. So that we can use the Disc ID for the Individually packaged Seasons, the natural order of a TV Series. With their marvellous cover artwork, and specific Case Type. In the same locality as the odd disc level profiles. | | | Don't confuse while the film is playing with when the film is played.

That would also mean we'd have to delete a lot of information from the current database since the rules consistently refer to DVD and not Blu-ray or UHD Blu-ray. |

There is no Lex specialis for TV Series on Blu-ray. True enough, but if you read the note I mentioned, it is not a "Clarifications to the standard Rules for TV Series on DVD," it is a note concerning cases where multiple complete TV seasons/series (each with distinct UPC/EAN) are packaged together. While the chart above the note is specific to TV Series on DVD, the note itself is not. And, as long as we are being purposely obtuse, from the introduction... The authoritative source for information submitted should be the DVD itself. Please don't submit content from a third party database, and always verify the specifications printed on the cover. In both cases, errors abound, so always verify the information directly from the DVD whenever possible. Since the information you are submitting should come from the DVD itself, and you're contributing a Blu-ray profile, it must be a blank profile...or are you using the DVD version as your source? | | | No dictator, no invader can hold an imprisoned population by force of arms forever.
