Ok, maybe there is a way to do that already but I havent figured it out yet.

As an example today I picked 10-11 DVD/BR's and I goto add them to DVDP add dvd window.

Now I can add then to Owned, or one of my other collections, but I cant add say add the 4 BR's to my BluRay collection then switch to my DVD Animated collection and the 3 animated titles and then switch to Movies and add the 4 DVD Movies.

All in one go. It seems to be an All or nothing all to one category.

It would be nice to be able to add without having to do it in different chunks.

The "Add now to ..." button has a drop-down arrow on the side where you can select another collection.

I could be mistaken... but I think he wants to be able to put all the purchases in at once... and have some go to owned... some go to Blue ray... and so on. So the titles would automatically go in whichever part of his collection he tells it to.

I could be mistaken as I never tried... but I think as it is now all titles will go to the section that is selected in the drop-down when you click to add to collection.

Nope, you can't split them up into groups on a single go.

What I do if there are a lot of them is create a separate collection category to download all of them into at once. For this category, I make sure to select the "Include contents in owned collection" checkbox (so that purchase data can be added if needed).

After all of the titles have been moved to this new category, it is easy to select the titles that fit in each group and use the "Flag -> Move To" to split them up accordingly.
If at first you don't succeed, skydiving isn't for you.

He who MUST get the last word in on a pointless, endless argument doesn't win. It makes him the bigger jerk.

I've requested this feature for the past 3 versions of Profiler (I think it's 3. It's as long as we've had the ability to have custom collections).

As yet, there has been no sign of it...so I fully support the suggestion.
