The DVD cover says Nordisk Film and mentions nothing about Nordisk filmdistribusjon, is Nordisk filmdistibusjon as mentioned in the endcredits a filmdistributor and not a DVD distributor?

Would Nordisk filmdistribusjon be mentioned at all in Profiler?

No, dont think its their label...

And your EAN/UPC check for ownership got it realy messed up, this I have to burry somewhere.
The owner is "N. W. DAMM & SØN AS" - my guess is that that is the firm that owns Egmont or Nordisk film..  any input from employees at OSLO børs? (=stockmarket)

If it's mentioned in the end credits, it's probably the theatrical film distributor. I don't really see the point of adding those for countries other than the film's CoO but people seem to put anything into media companies so I don't know...

Sometimes different distributors will have different cuts of films, so knowing the theatrical distributor of the print used for a particular DVD can be useful - especially for genre releases that can exist in many versions.
So I think if a theatrical distributor is mentioned in the credits on the DVD I think it's useful to add them to the profile.

They are registered with two different org. numbers; Nordisk Film AS and Nordisk Film Distribusjon AS. So they are not the same company. But Nordisk filmdistribusjon might be just a common name for Nordisk Film, as I can't see it registered in Brønnøysundregistrene at least.

Nordisk Film seems to be operating under Egmont, but I don't know what this means.

But this is DVD Profiler, not Film Profiler, so the end-credits isn't that reliable for this info. So I would go with the cover, and not the end-credits.

Egmont owns Nordisk Film, at least some stocks

Just rememered a tool I could use...  snurrfilm.no

When sorted for Nordisk Filmdistribusjon I only get Film (KINO) refs.
and when Nordisk Film is entered I only get DVD refs.

So the Nordisk Filmdistrubusjon is not to be entered in DVD Profiler I presume.


(Everytime I put the studios in the profiler I get anxious, some time I am shure only to get anxious again... )

I just did a profile, and I found a distributing credit in the end-credits. This was a FILM distributor for cinemas and stuff, and not for the DVD.

You should be pretty safe if you start the DVD and see what studio it shows first, before the main menu, this is the Media Company. After the main menu you'll get the Studios, like in "Walt Disney Pictures presents", in assosiations with.... These are studios. I'm not sure about the production which often will be listed after the studios, are studios, so I normally don't list them.
