Create the Tags to separate different areas of your movie list not supported by Profiler in itself..
example provided...

In the 60's, People took Acid to make the world Weird. Now the World is weird and People take Prozac to make it Normal.

Tags are the swiss knives of DVD Profiler. You can do anything you want with them.

For example I use tags for various different ideas:

1) Universes
I have several different TV shows that play in the same fictional universe (Babylon 5/Crusade, Friends/Joey, Buffy/Angel, ....) and they get tagged together.

2) Watched State
Long before I used the watched feature I tagged my DVDs whether I have watched this actual DVD or whether I have seen the movie at all before

3) Box Set State
I tag my DVD to indicate whether they are a Box Set, a part of a box set, a season box or a season disc.

4) Edit State
When I edit an aspect of a DVD and lock it afterwards, I tag it to see what I'Ve already edited.

Well almost.  You can make a tag called corkscrew but the program won't open a bottle of wine! 


I use them a lot for 4) but hadn't thought to use them for the others. Good ideas.
Bad movie?  You're soaking in it!

I use my tags for the following:

Whether I've updated the profile to Profiler 3.X etc.
Whether the profile was checked by me or another trusted user.

If I've printed a report.

TV shows that have been fully audited.

I also used to use the gallery feature until 3.5 added the gallery.

A Tag is a Label you create for your own purpose not covered by the program.
And as the others indicated
Sources for one or more of the changes and/or additions were not submitted. Please include the sources for your changes in the contribution notes, especially for cast and crew additions.
