I was wondering if I can find out the total number of physical discs I have in my collection.

Thanks.

ProfilerQuery can get you part of the way:



You'll just have to do a little multiplication and addition and you're there. So in this case that would be
6579 profiles with 1 disc
791 profiles with 2 discs
etc.

I'm not sure if there is an easier way.

I don't know, if I'm missing something here, but why not take a look at the collection list:

... as long as the number of discs field in the profiles is filled in correctly, the Total DVDs number should include all mathematics...

Are you refering to "Count as"? That isn't necessarily used for number of discs. Personally I have it set to 0 for boxset parents and 1 for "normal" profiles, so it counts number of actual titles. But if one does use it for number of discs, the yes, that would be the simplest way to see the total number.

Or are you refering to some other field that I have overlooked?

Yes, "Count as".

I set it to 1 (or 2 if a distinct bonus disk is included) for normal profiles,
to the number of discs for series profiles (except they are profiled as box set) and
to 0 for box sets parents, where I have child profiles counting for the discs...
