Two Problems in Need of Resolving
- I recently tried to change a title type from video to regular film and, each time, it came back with this error (note that I had typed an explanation each time):

My explanation was "This film was released only on online streaming services, not on video."
I am having this same problem ("We could not save your explanation") when trying to make any other edits that require explanations.
2. Please approve #260806-030439-340000 and #260813-223434-854000. The former was rejected only because it included high-profile companies (high-profile companies which are indeed the producer and distributor of this Discovery Channel film). The latter was rejected for no reason; Nigel Glynn-Davies is indeed listed as the film's dubbing mixer in the credits of the film: https://archive.org/details/the_dying_rooms/The+Dying+Rooms+E02.mkv

Hi @Madotsuki_the_Dreamer2,
Online videos can be (and mostly they are) added as “Made for Video” when they are direct-to-video release. The type (V) stands for “Made for Video”, please do not try to change it for online videos if they are not series. See the official guidelines:
https://help.imdb.com/article/contribution/titles/submitting-a-web-series-or-online-video/G4VEJJHEW2Y5745W#
https://help.imdb.com/article/imdb/discover-watch/some-films-have-v-or-vg-after-the-title-what-does-that-mean/GZZJ5SX425FL9ZPS#
The movies that you name "regular film" (without any type indicated, as I understand your remarks) are movies released in theaters first, and maybe released later in other ways.
Concerning the second point. The provided URL links to a media gallery (folder), it can be loaded differently (depending on devices and software) as a video player or as a catalogue with about 100 files. If you wanted to give the direct link, here it is:
https://archive.org/download/the_dying_rooms/The%20Dying%20Rooms%20E02.mkv
But I encourage you to provide screenshot(s) of questionable credits, which can be additionally supplied with direct link to the video source and the timings.

Regarding the problem with explanations, two other users have reported it here. One said it was resolved after clearing cookies.

Hi @Madotsuki_the_Dreamer2,
Please could you re-submit the declined data in both #260806-030439-340000 and #260813-223434-854000, and then add the new submission references to this thread. I can then monitor them through processing to ensure they're approved.
Cheers!
