It's here: the new DVD / Video / Blu-ray section
The section is also intended for other media / carriers such as Super 8, Laserdisc, etc. (if you miss a medium, please email me).
We've transferred the 300 DVD 's that were (secretly :-) already entered in the Other section. Most of these fields have not yet been completed because that was not possible in Other.
For TV series and if there are extras for films, you can record the episodes and / or the extras separately at the bottom of the form (this is not mandatory). Two more fields will be added to the episodes / extras at the end of this week: Year and Duration of the episode / extra (because technically something special has to be arranged for this).
Please give your feedback on the input fields and other matters concerning this new section.

As an implementation I still miss: Steelbook
This doesn't always have to be special edition or whatever.

didn't know either, I think google the DVDs that are packed in a metal box. So in a more expensive luxury packaging, but maybe it is even more?

No, just as you describe it. Is yet another trick of the companies to sell the same film for the sixth time. Er… the seventh… er…

For all DVDs that currently have a date before 2000, it must be “Film Release Year”.
In any case, the first DVDs cannot be older than 1997 (US) or 1998 (Europe).

@ Rene
A “Steelbook” is a DVD edition in a metal sleeve. Sometimes issued as a “Special edition”, but also separately.
Link to steelbook
@ all
Doesn't anyone else have one like that?

Steelbook added. Just like Complete Edition and Director's Cut (good suggestions from Arco).
You can now also choose multiple versions (steelbook can also be combined with another one, for example).

Hey, could "Ex-rental" be included as a version?
To plant it in detail all the time is also inconvenient, in addition you get a nice overview of ex-rentals for the ex-rental enthusiasts. : P

You may have missed that, but on Monday or at least next week, the intention was to add missing editions, and all packages will be separated from editions.
Do you know that an Ex-Rental is a much better quality DVD as a buy DVD ? It was therefore very expensive for the shopkeeper to purchase. Not for me :-)

Actually, I don't think “Ex-Rental” is a good description. I would like to make it “Intended for rental”. The item is not made as “ex-Rental”.

This is nonsense. The DVD is created using the same process.
bq. It was therefore very expensive for the retailer to purchase.
That has to do with the rights. Buying out the rights is precisely the reason that there are versions for rental.
The quality of ex-Rentals is very sad. Unfortunately, people are very careless with rental DVDs, which causes them to scratch and eventually give hiccups.
That seems to me the primary reason for a video store to sell them again as "ex-Rental".

Name is fine, it also says.
Rental Version I mean, that's two-sided.
No the process is earlier and with better material than the sale DVD .
That's right, those rights are expensive even through a chain and a RENTAL DVD is very expensive.
Rentals are made as new before they go on sale, by polishing them and making them scratch-free. The ones from my regular video library are scratch-free.
The primary reason for selling them is the mandatory number that they often have to buy in the beginning, especially on top titles. After the loop is finished, they only need 2 DVD s. The rest may then be sold. Just cleaning up is another reason.

The "Ex-Rental" version is clear to everyone, in addition, "Intended for rental" is vague, not really an implementation name and long.
Rental and sale DVDs are of the same quality. The only difference is that one says "For sale only" or "Forbidden to rent" and the other says "For rent".
Idd there are video stores that make the DVD s scratch-free, but not all do that. I prefer to buy them in a store, better case and the DVD is 99.9% scratch-free and new.
Have a few ex-rentals, of course, but don't buy them anymore. Especially if they are ultimately cheaper in a store than at the video store. : P

“Rental version” seems fine to me, but “ex-Rental” is not. Do you know what I mean?
but .. everywhere we use the Dutch language as much as possible, because why should we use English here?
So shall we ask Rene to make “Rental version” as Performance?

with better material as the sale DVD
Do you have a source for this? Or have you heard this from the Video Store Clerks?

Again, Rental Version, it's on it. Ex-Rental does not cover the cargo idd and the rental version may again create uncertainty. Besides that, English is the main language in film country, this section can also be found by film lovers in Italy, France, Germany etc. That goes fast via Google, movie names.
The first pressing is for the video stores. The “dredge” goes to the shops. I don't believe everything straight away either, just find out.
By the way, he's not a clerk, the man was way ahead of his time and has had a video store for more than 30 years and still is. The info gets away from that source.
I must add that it differs per publisher, larger companies have better quality sales DVD as smaller ones.

Rental Version, it is there. [...] rental version may again create confusion.
Why does a direct translation of “Rental version” create uncertainty? Is there really nowhere on the cover the word “Rental”? I don't really believe that. What is the Catawiki number?
bq. Besides that, English is the main language in film country, this section can also be found by film lovers in Italy, France, Germany etc.
An automatic translation / English version of the site is being worked on. This does not have to be taken into account when choosing terms now. If it now says "Deleted scenes" then a Brit who comes to this site does not understand it now. Being resolved in a different way is different discussion.
bq. The first pressing is for the video stores. The “dredge” goes to the shops. I don't believe everything straight away either, just find out.
We're not talking about Olives, are we? Haha. The first pressing of DVD 's is as good as the thousandth. There is no mold or anything that can fill up.
bq. By the way, this is not a clerk
The term "Clerks" was a movie joke, not an attempt to pretend those employees are inferior or anything. See 910337 .
If your source is the seller, the data is by definition unreliable. After all, he would like to make you believe that his product is the best to sell it to you.
