| | Posted: | | | | For whatever reason I am unable to add new studios locally and unable to submit updates/corrections with regards to studios. It will only let me use studios that are already used in my collection. Am I missing something painfully obvious? |

| | Posted: | | | | When you have a new studio are you
clicking on the Edit Studios button
Then the Add button on the list the pops up
then finally editing the "[New Studio]" entry that was added to what you want? |

| | Posted: | | | | No, because I'm mentally retarded. Thanks very much, I was just typing them in. I knew it would be painfully obvious.  |

| | Posted: | | | | Be sure to hit add. If you forget to, you'll just change whatever is first on the list (probably 20th Century Fox) to whatever the new one is, and it will affect every disc from that studio. This was driving me nuts for a while until I noticed I wasn't hitting add. Now it's all good as far as my studios are concerned. They were a mess for while, as I got down into the B's from adding new ones wrong and erasing old.   | | | | Last edited: by bigdaddyhorse |

| | Posted: | | | | You can also copy/paste a new studio. When you edit a profile you just type the studio name in one of the three studio fields then highlight the studio, cut it and paste it in the studio field and voila it's added. That's the way I do it. | | | | Cor | | | | Last edited: by Corne |

Good reminder! I had the exact same experience. You're not alone. I'll bet a majority of us have committed this error once or twice. | | | Another Ken (not Ken Cole)

This was driving me nuts for a while until I noticed I wasn't hitting add. You're not the only one to do that. A major pain going through the collection correcting mistakes on studios/media companies like that. |

| | Posted: | | | | To avoid this mistake being made, it would be better if the programme would ask for confirmation if you're replacing studio names instead of adding them. Something like "Are you sure you want to replace 20th Century Fox with ....?". |
