A good part of that ten minutes however is waiting
for my .pcf to load and in turn, download to the
remote at the end of the process. With my .pcf
I have all the macros for the remaining slots
in my 3rd changer already done, so there is no
work there at all other than jogging cover images
down to make room for a new title. Then I just
link that new DVD cover to the appropriate macro.
Depending on the title I may have more or less
DVD cover images to jog down. No one letter carries
over to another on the same page however, so I
only have to jog images down for that letter.
Since I use that temporary background image it
is very easy to jog DVD covers down quickly while
keeping the placement consistent.

The system I have worked out is very dynamic even
though everything is a manual process. The only
time consuming work was getting everything initially
setup. Sometimes I hold off and add several new
DVD titles at once, but I enjoy spending the few
minutes updating my DVD Profiler and pcf file,
so I will take the time to just add one new title.
It's fun! :-)

Lowpro,
Lets start by saying THANKS! to you and Daniel. I wanted the Pronto for some time, and finding this thread made me finally buy it.

I am almost done now, but curious to find out more info on how you insert a new DVD cover into your DVD Lobby. Do you keep it alphabetical? or just insert the next "A" title at the bottom of the last "A" page you have.

I really want to keep it alphabetical, but if I insert a movie on A1 and have to reinsert all images from A1 - A3 to bump them....I think I will give up on that idea.

Is this how you do it?

Thanks!
