If you actually click the search button, opera works correctly.  If you just press enter on the field, opera is clicking the sign out button at the top of the screen.  The default button for the field is set properly but isn't working in opera.  Ahh the wonders of differing browser support. 

Ah, yes, confirmed ! Thanks !

362 hits for Tom 'Tiny' Lister Jr.?! While he's almost NEVER credited as such? Note the single quotation marks and the missing comma preceding the suffix - both hallmarks of IMDb but not as common in actual credits.

Unfortunately no surprise here.

Yup no surprise, did a lookup on Robert Tapert aka Rob Tapert aka Robert G. Tapert.  The name he is rarely credited with "Robert G. Tapert" but, a certain third party DB uses as the common name is the most common in our database.

One thing that did surprise me is the majority of the profiles using data not from the credits were releases outside of R1.

Wonder if the credits report tool could be broken down by locality.

It sounds like her commonly credited name is sabrina lebeauf, espically when you factor in The Cosby Show which credits her as sabrina lebeauf.  This really isn't that uncommon for American film and TV credits to present names like "le beauf" as "lebeauf".  I see it all the time with names that have articles. 

Just because IMDB, Wikipedia, and TV.com use "le beauf" as their common name doesn't mean that it is the most commonly credited as name in the credits.  There are certain rules that IMDB and other sites use when it comes to the names they use like they don't use a comma before a "Jr." even if it appears in the film credits they treat the names with and without the common as the same name.  Just like "le beauf" you will notice IMDB never show her credited as "lebeauf" they consider it the same name.

Remember we are trying to link DVD profiler profiles so if the majority of her profiles are using lebeauf, assuming that these profiles were using the credits to get their data.  Then that should be the common name.

Nice addition.  Would be even nicer if the list shown also displays both names (common name and credited as) so we can easily see if a common name has already been entered in the database.  The way it is now, I have to click on each separate entry found to see this information.

True: that would indeed be very helpful!

As I proposed above:

Bulk correction of an actor could be a solution. So you would select in the new "credit" tool all the titles (all "Fight Club" DVDs, all "Pay it Forward" etc.) you just mentioned and correct the actor at once.

With the current solution you can only fix your DVD, even when it is obvious that the data is totally incorrect for 150 titles....
