So I submitted an update to X-Men: Apocalypse (024543293729) and I got three people saying the data was blank. What's really weird is someone else submitted an update after mine and when I initially looked at it, it was blank, but went back and it's now there (as is mine).

BTW, the update (for both me and the other person) was checking HDR10 in the video portion.

Yeah, it was definitely showing up as completely blank before, but I checked it again and now it magically does appear. It isn't the first contribution bug like this I've seen related to 4.0.

Same here. It might have something to do with bugs that need to be worked out with the new version (I hope).

A lot of contibutions are released now.

I don't know what happened, but in multiple contributions extra end dividers are placed before a new group starts even though I didn't add them. Does anyone know if this is something new from version 4 and should we always add enddividers even when it's followed up by a new group?

So the current rules actually still forbid to add a "Group End" type divider when the next entry begins a new group, yet the program now does the opposite. This change needs to make its way into the rules as soon as possible. Obviously, the rules should have been updated to accomodate such changes *before* contributions from 4.0 were enabled.

Totally agree on that and to be honest I think it doesn't make sense at all to add an end divider when the group is followed up by another group.

I also see some updates for new extra's and other audio tracks. What happens when those are getting released before Version 4 is officially released?

That - in a perfect world - the rules would have been to be updated up front, is clear. - But do you really demand perfect-world-things from Invelos?  - I would be happy if the pending rule change, which I reported in may 2015, would make it in the next rule set.

It was quite clear, that the nested dividers feature needs correct end dividers; though the development had to be pointed at it by the beta testers...

I found it kind of ridiculous that even after the bugs (and therefore the need for end dividers) were discussed, people continued to remove end dividers "per the rules"...

Version 4 is officially released already - albeit "soft" for now.

Ok,

On the download page it still says it's version 3.9, but now I see it links to version 4. Time for an update.

have a few issues with some profiles my self

John Wick 4k release shows up on desktop but will not show up on my Ios dvd profiler . I tried clearing teh database and just re downloading it but will not show up.

Passengers 4k seems to be missing a lot of its profile too.
