Several questions from a newbie...Please Help!

Hello gang,
I have finally figured out how to make my own reports. Now...I have searched the board here in order to find some answers to my questions but I haven't come across any, so I'll put my questions here and I hope some of you can help me out with this....

By the way, I have DVD Profiler 3.0.

1. How can I change the ratings from normal lettering (for example: NOT RATED) to the accordant picture "Not Rated" as it is printed on DVDs?

2. When I wanna list the crew of a film, only the director appears in the final report. I would like the writers, producers etc. to be listed there too, though. They are listed in the profiles of each DVD, they just don't show up on the report. Only the director is listed in the crew section.

3. The picture qualities do not change to HighQuality, although I have registered and I have updated/downloaded the new pictures. I also activated the HighQuality setting. They still come out very very blurry.

4. Is there any way to add awards, trivia or even quotes from the IMDB to the reports?

5. The runtime is displayed as 1:27. How can I change it to just minutes (in this case 87 mins)?

6. Is there a way to add the option COLOR and B/W?

7. How can I add the soundmixes, such as DolbyDigital 5.1 or DTS? Only the languages are shown. No audio tracks appear, although I indeed do have added it to the report and its in the DVD's profile!

8. The report lists the actors just as follows: Jamie Lee Curtis, Donald Pleasence etc.
How can I change them so that the actor's role is actually displayed? Like: Jamie Lee Curtis - Laurie. Donald Pleasence - Dr. Loomis. a.s.f. ?

I know these are a LOT of questions...but I would be sooo glad if some of you could point me in the right direction with some advice.
Thanks in advance!

Hello DaShape,

1. How can I change the ratings from normal lettering (for example: NOT RATED) to the accordant picture "Not Rated" as it is printed on DVDs?
[b]First you need according images of the different ratings. Add them to your report in the images tab.
Then you add a image to your report and select via condition the appropriate MPAA Rating and select the correct image via Attached Image.[/b]

2. When I wanna list the crew of a film, only the director appears in the final report. I would like the writers, producers etc. to be listed there too, though. They are listed in the profiles of each DVD, they just don't show up on the report. Only the director is listed in the crew section.
With the Credit Category option you can select the different crew roles.

3. The picture qualities do not change to HighQuality, although I have registered and I have updated/downloaded the new pictures. I also activated the HighQuality setting. They still come out very very blurry.
The cover image quality can be changed with the Thumbnails option. Per default only the thumbnails are used. Set this option to False.

4. Is there any way to add awards, trivia or even quotes from the IMDB to the reports?
As far as I know this is not possible.

5. The runtime is displayed as 1:27. How can I change it to just minutes (in this case 87 mins)?
Use the Time Format option to change between hh:mm and mmm.

6. Is there a way to add the option COLOR and B/W?
Since this option is not available within DVD Profiler it is not possible on reports too.

7. How can I add the soundmixes, such as DolbyDigital 5.1 or DTS? Only the languages are shown. No audio tracks appear, although I indeed do have added it to the report and its in the DVD's profile!
Next to the Audio Contents (languages) there is Audio Format to display the different formats.

8. The report lists the actors just as follows: Jamie Lee Curtis, Donald Pleasence etc.
How can I change them so that the actor's role is actually displayed? Like: Jamie Lee Curtis - Laurie. Donald Pleasence - Dr. Loomis. a.s.f. ?
With the Show Roles option you can select to display the according role of the actor. The seperator beetween actor and role can be selected with Role Prefix.

Except the registration logo is not showing against the original posters name, so unless they have paid and registered using a different login they aren't going to see high res pictures.
