| | Posted: | | | | Noticed today the movie title of Second Hand Lions UPC#667068625783 is really #067068625785 .
Having a bit of trouble trying to get this changed as profiler doesn't recognize the upc therefore will not allow me to contribute it.. I then tried to create a new profile with the upc of 667068625785, but again invelos had message of Unable to create profile please check UPC and resubmit..
How do you fix bad upc code .. ?? | | | In the 60's, People took Acid to make the world Weird. Now the World is weird and People take Prozac to make it Normal.

| | Posted: | | | | That should be impossible. The last digit is a check sum and DVD Profiler does check to see if a UPC is valid. What you want to change it to isn't a valid UPC at all. Are you sure you aren't just misreading small type? |

Noticed today the movie title of Second Hand Lions UPC#667068625783 is really #667068625785 . You might want to check that 1st number. Sure looks like a 0 in the scan not a 6 like you say |

| | Posted: | | | | does someone with a scanner have this title. If it scans it probably scans with a 3 at the end not a 5.
As Ace said, the last digit is a check digit, the most scanners are set to calculate this not actually scan it so if it calculates to a 3 then it would be a 3 and the 5, even though printed on the cover, is wrong

| | Posted: | | | | it starts with a 0 instead of a 6
The picture in the db is 0 67068 62578 5
the Profile lists 6 67068 62578 3
although beginning with a zero, I don't think makes it valid.
06706862578 should have checksum of 1
66706862578 should have checksum of 3
the one in the scan appears invalid due to checksum | | | | Last edited: by CharlieM |

| | Posted: | | | | your right it should start with a 0 67068625785 but starts with a 6 plus the back number is 3 should be a five so the entire upc is wrong: 667068625783 instead it should be 067068625785  so I'll repeat my post question again.., How do you fix bad upc code .. ??  | | | In the 60's, People took Acid to make the world Weird.

| | Posted: | | | | This looks like a boot. The UPC is not valid. It is the only version with DTS. It has subtitles in English, Spanish, Chinese, Bahasa and Thai.
It looks like it was in the old IVS database with the old ten digit upc format that we used. We Ken uploaded most of the old IVS data, he expanded the old ten digit format to twelve like we now use. His guess as to the UPC was wrong.

Why stop the spread of good data just to spite the submittor? That makes absolutely no sense. | | | | The night is calling. And it whispers to me soflty come and play. |
