I am still fairly new to the BD/DVD combos... so not completely sure what would be right. But this is the first one I seen come down from the database like this... and it just don't look right to me....



I was wondering...

1. Is it right as is?
2. It should be Main feature (DVD) Digital Copy is covered in Features
3. It should be Main Feature (DVD/Digital Copy)
4. Other

I think Main feature (DVD) is enough.

Otherwise are we going to start editing all Blu-ray/ Digital Copy profiles to add Main Feature (BD/Digital Copy) TOO?

That is what I was thinking as well... just wanted other people's opinions before submitting it.

Are these common? Now that I started thinking of it, I've never seen DVD video / Digital copy combos. I didn't even know that DVD can be authorised to be video and data disc same time. Yes, digital copies are on DVD (as in media) too, but does it really contain DVD video version too? If these really exist, how do we separate releases which just have digital copy code, which can expirate any day and digital copies on actual physical disc which are usable as long as the disc is ok? This was discussed several times when Digital Copy feature was introduced in DVDP. Then the given solution was:

1. Digital copy as a code, just check Digital Copy in features
2. Digital copy on a physical disc, check Digital Copy in features AND use Digital Copy as a Disc Description

I'm not sure these combos even existed that day. In this case, if we leave digital copy out of disc description, how do we know with the given info if this is just a digital copy code or phisical media?

I mark them as Main Feature (DVD) / Digital Copy, but only contirubte them if I'm contributing other things.  I keep my DiscIDs locked.

But are these actual DVD/DC combos? Those can be played in normal DVD player and contain Digital Copy on same disc? I'm just asking cause I believe that I've never seen such combo.
