1. Typos on UHD and Blu-ray pages:

Exition -> Edition


2. The movie is also on both Blu-ray and DVD as a bonus feature on:

The Curse of Frankenstein Blu-ray + DVD:

https://www.dvdcompare.net/comparisons/ ... ?fid=21234
Blu-ray B United Kingdom - Lions Gate Home Entertainment

https://www.dvdcompare.net/comparisons/ ... p?fid=5372
R2 United Kingdom - Lions Gate Home Entertainment

- This Lions Gate 3 disc set was released in 2012.
- The Blu-ray page for The Curse of Frankenstein currently incorrectly has the release year of Four Sided Triangle as 1952, when it should be 1953 (the DVD page is correct in this regard).
- Note that even on the Blu-ray disc of this set, it only has the movie in SD 25fps.

This release could also be added to the Blu-ray and DVD pages for Four Sided Triangle.
Full specs are as follows:

Added.

If you have a BD-ROM/BD burner drive, you can check the resolution of video titles either with some software players (provided they have AACS) or with MakeMKV which can scan the contents of a disc without having to rip it.

Regarding checking disc specs via computer, unfortunately I have never owned a BD-ROM drive. In addition, after my laptop's DVD-ROM drive packed up some time ago, I can't check DVDs for specs in this way either. I can check region coding for Blu-rays using my stand-alone multi-region Blu-ray player, but while I have 3 stand-alone players altogether (2 Blu-ray players and 1 DVD player), all of them are multi-region for DVDs, so I cannot use any of them to tell if a DVD is region locked.


As for the database entries, you're not going to like this, but there are quite a few errors. Hopefully they should be relatively easy to fix though:

---
1. On The Curse of Frankenstein DVD page
https://www.dvdcompare.net/comparisons/ ... p?fid=5372

1.1. It lists:
R2 United Kingdom - Lionsgate Home Entertainment [2012 Release]
Bonus film on The Curse of Frankenstein

The "Bonus film on The Curse of Frankenstein" should be removed.

1.2. The Blu-ray link for "Four Sided Triangle" links to the 4K page. It should link to the Blu-ray page:
https://www.dvdcompare.net/comparisons/ ... ?fid=71433

1.3. The DVD link for "Four Sided Triangle" links to the correct page, but has an extra ">" sign at the start, which should be removed.

2. On The Curse of Frankenstein Blu-ray page
https://www.dvdcompare.net/comparisons/ ... ?fid=21234

The Blu-ray link for "Four Sided Triangle" links to the 4K page. It should link to the Blu-ray page:
https://www.dvdcompare.net/comparisons/ ... ?fid=71433


---
3. On Four Sided Triangle DVD page
https://www.dvdcompare.net/comparisons/ ... ?fid=10602

Under:
R2 United Kingdom - Lionsgate Home Entertainment [2012 Release]

"DISC ONE (Blu-ray Copy)"
links to "Four Sided Triangle" 4K page. It should link to the Blu-ray page:
https://www.dvdcompare.net/comparisons/ ... ?fid=71433

I haven't done an exhaustive check of all the pages, but I think that's everything!
