I've got a number of items that contain more than one movie on a given side of a DVD. The contribution rules do not cover this situation. Two examples:

15 Minutes/Frequency/Thirteen Days
(URL: http://www.amazon.ca/15-Minutes-Frequency-Thirteen-Days/dp/B000HT38DU/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=dvd&qid=1196810756&sr=8-1)
This contains a single disc with '15 minutes' and 'Frequency' on side A and 'Thirteen Days' on side B.

Any of the '50 Movie' boxed sets that contain 4 movies on a disc (2 on each side)

The closest that the contribution rules come to covering this is
"Sets containing 2 films, one on each side of Dual-Sided DVD"
This does not cover these situations however. I've seen contributions that include the credits for DVDs with two movies on a side seperated by a seperator. This suits me fine, but is this the rule? In the case of the first example should there then be:
1. one entry with credits for all three movies' credits seperated by seperators
2. one boxed set entry and two other entries, one for each side, one with two sets of credits the other with only one - or -
3. one boxed set entry and three other entries for each movie (even though this would create two disc ids with different movie deatils on them).

What're your thoughts?

It would be nice to be able to do option 3, but unless you're willing to have one manual profile we're best off using option 2 as Krik says.

I think option 2 is how they are generally done.  As for myself, I go with option 3.  But as mentioned, that requires using manual profiles which can't be submitted.

If I could ask Ken to make a single change at this point, it would be to finda way to handle these.  But until that time, we do the best we can.

It was discussed on this thread if you can get in there.

Absimiliard, it is on the Rules Review Forum; you need to request access to there.
The gist of the discussion was that if there is more than one movie on a side, you can use cast & crew dividers for each movie within a single profile.

Option 1 makes sense to me - I don't think we can enter a single disc ID more than once, so child profiles aren't a possibility.

Option 2 would work since side 1 and side 2 have different disc IDs.  There are a lot of child profiles done this way.  What you couldn't do is Option 3 without making a manual, non-contributable profile for one of the films on Side A.

Quoting hal9g:

Option 2 would be according to the Rules, which say to create separate profiles for movies on opposite sides of the same disc.

Personally, I'm with Mark and create Manual Profiles for the second (or third) movie on the same side.

Or he could do both, if he wants: contribute per Option2 and keep local the Manual individual movie profiles
