What PVD is missing is...

--- Quote ---So what's the problem? When adding a movie you check the "Seen" checkbox and "Wish" checkbox. When you buy the movie, you uncheck the "Wish" checkbox.
--- End quote ---
It depends on what meaning you want the Wish filter to have. Yes, "wish" could mean simply "not owned," but one might want it to mean "consider purchasing this." In other words, some will want to use it to maintain a short list of movies they would like to own, and use it to decide which ones they can afford to buy at any particular time. So "wish" would be a subset of "not owned."
To emphasize the more general point, there is flexibility in how the filters are used. One should decide what that is when setting up their database and workflow, and then stick to it.

sweet :) but....
dont you gentlemen think it would be easier and more convenient to consider implementing other check boxes like OWNED instead of debating about possible Workaround(s)?

Obviously not, or we would have said so. ;)
What I suggested was not a "workaround"—it was an explanation of the proper use of the program. I did mention if anything were added it should be an additional filter for custom use. I suppose you could use that for your "owned" filter, but then your media filter would go unused and you would have no additional filter available if any real need were to arise.
If you prefer a Xmas gift of substance, wish for the ability to save advanced searches to a search menu. You would then have full-blown, fully customizable "filtering" at your fingertips, instead of just one more wimpy girly filter. 8)

lol
fine
seems we find LOGIC to be different at times
nostra:
I will not add a new checkbox field (unless there is smth very important to solve with it). You use custom fields to add any number of checkboxes and achieve functionality you need. Advanced search can be used to filter by those fields.
