Ok, I wonder if T!M updated more than one profile, because I got perhaps half a dozen mismatches.
I think that is likely because he tends to update cast and crew for a given film across profiles. | Posted: Topic Replies: 5, Topic Views: 1530 |

| I don't think the CLT is broken. I downloaded the profile and then tried recontributing without changes and to my surprise the cast and crew were much different. It looks like T!M submitted a contribution to the cast and crew on 14 Jan 2024 which were approved today on 19 Jan 2024. His changes use "Paull Walia" so it seems not all changes have completely updated throughout the system. | Posted: Topic Replies: 5, Topic Views: 1530 |

| They're releasing elsewhere, they're just not releasing it in the UK which I think is the right thing to do. | Posted: Topic Replies: 5, Topic Views: 1828 |

If the item in question is from Argentina then I'd have to question it's legitimacy. According to the GS1, this is a US UPC owned by Alliance Entertainment Corporation in the US.
EDIT: When Evil Lurks was released to Blu-ray in the US by RJL Entertainment under UPC: 014381004458. Can you provide photos of the item you have? From what retailer did you obtain this copy? | Posted: Topic Replies: 1, Topic Views: 823 |

| I have an update to one contribution from 27 Dec which has one vote which was skipped over. Plus two additional initial (new) contributions from 29 and 30 Dec which have also been skipped over. Everything else was for updates to existing contributions which have all been approved and/or released. | Posted: Topic Replies: 101, Topic Views: 12964 |

This is what the guidelines list for SRP:

Use the SRP (Manufacturer’s Suggested Retail Price) at the time of the DVD’s original release using the currency type matching the locality of the DVD. | Posted: Topic Replies: 10, Topic Views: 2833 |

In the UK, quoted prices for everything always include tax (Value Added Tax in our case). No one in day to day conversation talks about non VAT prices, unless they're moaning about paying VAT in general on certain things and not on others! The only people buying anything who're interested in net of VAT prices are businesses, as they can sometimes claim it back. Prices in shops and online almost always include VAT, unless it's a seller focused on business customers, where they sometimes exclude the VAT in the primary cost they advertise.
Is there actually a formal description of what SRP is?
Not that I'm very interested in SRP prices one way or the other, as they seem pretty meaningless these days and I actually clear that field in my local database.
SRP, or sometimes you see MSRP, is usually the recommended price from the manufacturer that the retailer should should sell the item at. From my experience, that doesn't include tax.
But yes, there are many countries that require the advertised price from the retailer to the consumer to include the tax. However, there are many others that do not.
If you import from a country that requires tax to be included in the advertised price, but the consumer doesn't live within the boundaries of said country then the tax may be subtracted from the advertised price. In essance, in these situations, the consumer is being charged the base price. | Posted: Topic Replies: 10, Topic Views: 2833 |

The SRP is typically without tax.
Only in the US.
Not just in the US. But even those countries which require retailers to add the tax to the advertised price (i.e. EU), there's still a base SRP that is used to base the tax percentage on. | Posted: Topic Replies: 10, Topic Views: 2833 |

| Weird that you can't slow it down more than 0.5x. Why not use the frame advance option? That way you can at least pause the stream in close proximity to the intended credits then advance frame by frame until you see the credits you want. | Posted: Topic Replies: 4, Topic Views: 2293 |

I recently made an interesting discovery. I updated some profiles that were missing color information. Most of them also had some other changes; birth year, common name or whatever. But the ones that had only color information added were approved immediately.
I can only surmise that this is bug in the bot. While color info is a very simple piece of information, it's not so simple that you cannot get it wrong. I have seen that happen. So it should be voted on.
There's been a bug for the Dynamic Range since 2017. If someone is submitting profile changes along with the color format, but they don't have the dynamic range set, the dynamic range change won't show up on the contribution and it will remove the dynamic range when the profile is approved. | Posted: Topic Replies: 101, Topic Views: 12964 |

| Things have definitely changed over the years as new contributions were supposed to be much quicker (no ability to vote on them) yet they now take 10+ days for each one to be approved. I'm guessing initial contributions are approved by someone else than the updates to existing profiles. | Posted: Topic Replies: 101, Topic Views: 12964 |

| I'll have to check out MonoCheck but you can also use Audacity to analyze the audio tracks. | Posted: Topic Replies: 6, Topic Views: 2608 |

Yes, it would be based on how their encoded on the disc. The home menus don't always show all tracks that are encoded on the disc either.
The contributions rules do mention "List audio tracks in the order in which they are encoded on the disc" | Posted: Topic Replies: 6, Topic Views: 2608 |

| Done. I also contributed an update to the main profile based on the information from the Extended Director's Cut disc. | Posted: Topic Replies: 5, Topic Views: 1961 |

Do you want a Steelbook or regular profile?
What I own is the steelbook so that would be great--thank you!

I found an additional picture that shows the UPC on an eBay listing, but when I look it up, it comes back Game of Thrones season 3 blu-ray, so I'm gonna agree bootleg. It sucks because it looks nice, I love those condensed scanovo cases (I know they're controversial), and the series hasn't been released in the US.
And the UPC in their listing doesn't even match the UPC on their product images. Now we know why. | Posted: Topic Replies: 11, Topic Views: 5323 |

What is a Dollar Tree disc with common UPCs. Can you show us an example? Are they legitimate?
Never mind, I found an example and explanation here.
The Dollar Tree seems to get rolling batch releases which use the same UPC for different titles in said batch. I don't agree with the notion that "but only in the desktop program" (i.e. keeping these alternate profiles local only) that some people have as this is the reason why the capability for alternate UPCs was created. | Posted: Topic Replies: 4, Topic Views: 2897 |
