I love this app, just got it last weekend and I have already talked 2 more people into buying it for their collections

The 2 things I noticed that this app needs are Sub-categories and a way to group sets

The Subcategories: Under the main collection it would be great to be able to have groups I can put movies into so that when I sort them it will only pull up what is in that group.
Ex: Kids movies, TV Shows, ect.
- Or is there some way I just havent found for doing this already?

Set grouping: When I cataloged my collection I noticed that when I sort it Alphabetically (the only way I really sort it for finding things) it splits up the movie collections that are not a Box set
(ex: The Fast and the Furious, the 2nd movie gets sorted under the number 2 since its title is 2 Fast 2 Furious - the new Batman movies are another that gets sorted apart) -
I would love to be able to set up a File Under title for movies to sort by.

Check out custom collection categories - they can be set as part of your owned collection, so their contents appear in owned as well as in the custom category.  Tools menu to start.

You can alter the title sort order of particular films via DVD->Personalize.  For instance, set the sort order of all your Batman movies to start with 'Batman'.

You can also use fake profiles to sort things.  See the link in my signature for an example.

To do so, Add a new profile by title, but uncheck the Download from Invelos.  Then you are creating a manual profile and you can add anything you like to it.  And as many levels deep as you desire as well.
Get the CSVExport and Database Query plug-ins here.
Create fake parent profiles to organize your collection.

Also, that's an old picture.  My HD discs are now in custom categories.  But I still use it for things like grouping James Bond or TV seasons.
