Much requested for 2.5, I hope you can do it for the next version.

It is now partially covered. You can now insert "dividers" in cast/crew listings (e.g. "Episode 1: The Beginning") and list cast/crew separately for each episode. However, there is room for improvement here: in cast/crew information, a cast/crew member is listed only once, you still don't know in which episode he starred unless you manually scroll through all the cast/crew and look for it.

And there still is no crosslinking between cast and crew, e.g. directors that also star in some other or the same film don't get listed as director/actor in cast/crew information, respectively.

I mean a complete different handling, like correctly entering the audio formats (i.e. Movie 1 has english 5.1, Movie 2 only english 2.0 and french 2.0)

Agree it needs some sort of boxset that can seperate out multiple movies without multiple disc ids, I've  got one title with 3 films on the same side of the same disc.

The partial solution just gets really messy.

I noticed last night that headshots don't crossover either.  If you enter a headshot for Hitchcock as diirector, it won't show for him as an actor.
Get the CSVExport and Database Query plug-ins here.

I agree with this. It would be nice if it was possible, for example, to see which episode(s) actors in TV series appear in when you click on the cast member's name - now all you see is that he/she has appeared in the TV series, but you don't know how many and which episodes he/she appears in.

You can now list both cast and crew multiple times in a profile with dividers.

I just saw the first contribution for thjis (Police Squad) and it looks great. Very clear and finally useful data for Cast and Crew of TV Series.

For multiple movie discs it'd be nice to have additional Production Year fields available that could be sorted out; the earliest could still stand for the DVD itself.

Individual running times is needed as well.

Plus, it would be nice to indicate "Watched by" data for a specific movie, rather than the whole disc...
