Drop-down lists

I've never manage to get the new additions I put to lists to stay for more than that session I'm in. If I add a few films the new categories will stay for that session, but next time I open the program its not saved.
I'm using the latest version.

You add them from the preferences window ?
Which options did you check in these preferences, about the drop-down list "categories" ?

When I don't have a media type I'd like (e.g. DVD+R) I just write it in the Media type when I register a new film. I don't add it in the Preferences.
The options that are set in the Drop-down list section of are as follow. These are checked:

Same option for all lists
Auto-sort
Auto-complete
Automatically add values that are not in list

You are right, it seems to be a bug.
I did not tested that for long time, and I probably broke this functionnality in a recent version.
I'll correct it for version 3.5 for sure, or maybe for an update of 3.4.3
Until then, you can use the option "Use values of current catalog", which works and that will display the values used by other movies of the catalog.
