I'm a little confused.

Will Intervocative still keep their database updated?
Will they continue to come up with new/ improved versions for the current program I have (2.4)? Or will they stop since this new company is now doing their version?
Will this new company replace the old company, or are they independent of each other?
How do we know if this new company will last or even keep the database up to date as often as the old company did?

I would hate to start using this new company's version only to have it go out of business and no longer update it's database.
I just have some concerns.

I just ran the program and I loaded up my backup and it stopped after just 50 DVD's.

Now I have to pay $29.95 just to be able to load up my back-up, which was 100% free from Intervocative.

I am not too happy right now.

It loaded up my backup fine. I updated my collection and now I have External Exception errors and it want show any of the cover scans.

So far I'm not to happy with version 3.

I've had no problems with it so far, other than the discrepency between the old 10 digit UPCs and the 12 digit UPCs. It looks like the ones it wouldn't load are lesser titles, and aren't up in the database yet.

As for the 50 dvd limit, I didn't have any problems since I have the premium version. I felt it was totally worth the $30 to have unlimited space for my online library, and the additional premium-only features like high-rez scans and "movie pick".

I haven't messed around a lot with it yet, but I do like the new look of it, and it seems like it has a lot more features than 2.4.

Is anyone using this on Vista? I know there were known problems with the old version, so I'm wondering if this was built from the ground up with Vista in mind?

Ok, I went and paid for the registration and loaded up my backup. Everything worked. Except I have about 195 titles with the UPC error.

I deleted the old DVD Profiler via the remove programs method, but the computer only deleted some files.

I looked up the Program Files and found quite a bit of files left over.
In the Intervocative Program File I found files containing 274 MB of stuff including the image files and all of the data files for the actors and such.

Is it safe to delete the old "Intervocative Software DVD Profiler" files or is the new version using these files?

I like the new version, and I too bought the premium version a few years ago. I'm just glad they aren't charging you for the new company.

Looks good but I guess I'll keep both for now until I know for sure what's going on.

No, you can continue to use 2.4 for free. If you want the new version then you have to pay the $29.95, if you want to use it for more than 50 DVDs.

Gathering what I can from the forums, Intervocative was formed with a few of his friends to use to release programs. The only one they ever released was DVD profiler, so with the new version he formed his own company to release it. I have no problem with paying the $29.95 for the new version, it still covers any newer versions. At least he is still allowing the old registrations to download the new version.

So, if I'm a registered user (aka paid my $$) for an old Intervocative version of DVDProfiler that will allow to upgrade for free for the new one?

Yes, you just need your registration number. If you don't know it you can get it from the old site.

Yes. Just go into the tools menu and get your registrtion key as you will need it to log in. DO a backup before you upgrade.

when you sign up at the new site, you will use your old registration number to generate a new registration number to be used with version 3.0.

So far it seems that there are no problems running this on Vista. All the old errors from 2.4 are now gone.

That's what happened to me at first, but when I registered for the new site (free option) and did an upload, it loaded my entire catalogue.

So, is 3.0 free, or do you have to pay for it?

I am using the free version right now with my entire catalogue uploaded and available. I paid nothing, but I do get pop-ups from time-to-time telling me "...upgrade to premium, and get all the benefits!".

If you uploaded your backup file and it only went to 50 titles, do it again.

It's free to use. But after 50 DVDs it is limited.

Here is the link

You can load more than 50, but after 50 you are limited to what you can do. See the above link for the breakdown.

I believe so.

3.0 IS the new version of 2.4. It's the exact same developer as before.

IVS was intended to be a company ran by several developers that each produced products. Everything fell through, and Ken Cole (DVD Profiler) ended up being the only one. He basically said IVS is theirs to do whatever with.

Same developer, same people in charge of the database. Nothing different.

Not likely.

Yep, I am. Works great on Vista, too.

They seem to have dropped the export to CSV option, which I use all the time.

I've tried a couple times to connect the program to the database and I keep getting an error. I would assume it's pretty overloaded right now. Anybody else with the same problem?

i had this problem, however, after several attempts i was able to connect and upload my file. IIRC, my sig now links to the new site.

Ugh. Don't like that they butchered the free version. I didn't use it enough to pay for it, and didn't mind that it had ads in when I did go to use it. But now, you can't do anything really. http://www.invelos.com/dvdpro/Registration.aspx
