| Posted: | | | | What should be used as the separater character for discs that contain multiple titles on a single disc? The rules do not specify. Example: ![](http://img254.imageshack.us/img254/9751/wgco.jpg) | | | 99.9% of all cat plans consist only of "Step 1." |

| Posted: | | | | Grendell For years I have used the / when doing multiple titles one disc. Relative to cast and crew it depends. If the disc is single sided I would use a divider. If it is double sided then I would set up two separate profiles, one for each side and set up a parent child relationship. It seems to be the most effective | | | ASSUME NOTHING!!!!!!

I don't believe it is covered in the rules itself...but I always did it like this... The War Game / Culloden that is the way I have seen it the majority of titles I downloaded as well. | | | Pete |

| Posted: | | | | If there is no separator on the cover or spine I use /. On some double disc releases there are actually a separator character printed on the cover or spine, often &, which I use then but only then. |

| Posted: | | | | I've seen the slash (/) used to separate titles in some profiles if there's no title for the set. The question I have is should there be a space between the slash? For example, is it:
The Hangover/The Hangover II
or
The Hangover / The Hangover II
I've seen it both ways. Any opinions? | | | My DVD/Blu-ray Collection My Letterboxd Page |

| Posted: | | | | There is no rule on it. I personally think choice 2 looks better, less cluttered and easier to read, but that's just me. | | | ASSUME NOTHING!!!!!! CBE, MBE, MoA and proud of it. Outta here

| Posted: | | | | choice 2 is what I use. Unless there are more than 2 and the titles won't fit with the extra spacing. Then it's no spacing. |

| Posted: | | | | Choice 2 for me as well; I do it this way partly because I found that it was used in the vast majority of cases so went along with 'the consensus' and partly because I think it looks better & clearer and there's usually no reason to 'bunch up' the titles with the increased field length we now have. | | | It is dangerous to be right in matters where established men are wrong | | | Last edited: by Voltaire53 |
