BulkEdit might be a way to go.
Be aware though that DVD Profiler distinguishes different DVDs by their UPC/EAN and locality, so if you don't have the UPC/EAN in you Excel-sheet you might end up with the wrong profile to a movie you own.

Any problems, post in the BulkEdit thread. If you want perfect examples of the input format, use the plugin CSV Export to create a couple of test records. I tried to make my import compatible with that output, but I support subsets. As Mithi points out, the single most important field if the profile ID, which is UPC/EAN.locaility. If you get that right, you will have almost 100% success in importing your collection without errors.

If you have personal information such as Notes or Purchase Price, just add those fields, in no particular order. No other fields are actually required other than the UPC/EAN and personal information. All other information about the DVD will be downloaded from the Invelos website automatically.
Thanks for your support.
