| | Posted: | | | | Hi,
I wonder how the credits should be handled for a misprinted dvd I have here. Normally it would be a dual-layer dvd but somehow they managed to only produce a single-layer dvd and forgot the 2nd layer. So only half the movie is on it... so according to the rules I'd only be able/allowed to enter the credits from the movie intro?
(The defective and the replacement dvds have no UPC/EAN and the fixed replacement dvd's with the whole movie have another disc-id so it gets its own entry). | | | | Last edited: by MakoDeth |

| | Posted: | | | | I'd say: enter the opening credits only. And if you really feel like doing a lot of work, you might enter cast that's not part of the opening credits if you can provide a time stamp for their appearance in the half of the movie that's actually on disc and mark them uncredited.
BTW: things like Running Time and Features will need adjustment to what's actually on the disc as well.
Given the fact that the replacement disc (fortunately) has a different Disc ID, it will be part of the Invelos database as a curiosity. | | | | Last edited: by dee1959jay |

| | Posted: | | | | Since the replacement disc was part of the package that you have bought which just happens to be delivered late (assuming you have got the replacement for free), you can enter the full cast from the replacement disc. I also assume that the correct disc has been sold to other customers in the first place. But this is not important. | | | | Last edited: by RHo |

| | Posted: | | | | Maybe a stupid question, and i mean no offense by it, but why would you want to create a profile for a movie that's not complete.
I'd just throw the defective/half disc away and only profile/add to my collection the correct, complete movie send as a replacement and presumebly the disc sold at the moment.

| | Posted: | | | | I don't know if I'd bother profiling the error or not, probably just the corrected.
I take it this is from a boxset or collection to not have a UPC?
If I did profile the error, I'd probably add "ERROR, Half-Disc" to the edition field, even if only for my local. |
