I just purchased this produce and am having some problems.I had my movies in another program and it lost about half of them,so I got this program hoping it will work better. I have about 2200 movies that are in pouches with 200 to a pouch. So I will be loading them by the dvd rom to speed things up. I loaded one to see how it worked ,but I couldn't get a movie cover or any info. other than the title. So what am I doing wrong and what to do to laod all of these movies into this program?  thanks 2bucks

This might happen.
Depending on your locality you will find variations of the user-contribution activities.

Of which movie for which locality are we talking?
Could you give me the UPC / EAN, so that I can check too?

EDIT: The probably fastest way to enter 2200 DVDs in one go would be to buy a barcode scanner first.
It all seems so stupid, it makes me want to give up!
But why should I give up, when it all seems so stupid?

One of the movies is (across the hall) the other is (slammin; salmon) reagion 1. The dvd rom will be the way to go for I put all of the movies in pouches too save space ,and sold most of the cases on ebay.Yes it will be time comsuming but as of now the only way.Tis one of the main reasons I bought this program,here hoping to get this up and running. Does the movie cover and all info load in automically most of the time? thanks 2boot        indiana  usa

I guess it depends on your collection. If you have 2200 mainstream titles they will all be there (if they are all R! like the ones in your example)

On the other hand if you have 2200 obscure titles you may or may not find the information in the online database.

This is a user built database. The only way something gets into it is if one of the user contributes it.

Never heard of slammin salmon, but Across the Hall was released to both DVD and BD back in January and are in the database, in RI. I found it quite easily under title search and downloaded both readily to my local.

Since you have disposed of your covers, sadly you are in for a long slog loading up 2200 titles, the easy options you have gotten rid of.

Quoting 2bucks:

Once the movie is in the DVD-ROM and DVD Profiler is loaded, do this:

1. In the top menu, click "Add DVD" and then "Add to Collection"
2. The default tab "Add by UPC" will be selected, you need to click on "By Inserted Disc" in the top row.
3. Once DVD Profiler has read the disc ID, click on "Add DVD" on the bottom, and then "Add Now to..."

That should do it.
