This wa origially posted in the beta release testing thread. Hoping for an official answer.

There seems to be a problem with the way DVDPM handles actor cross-linking when an actor has multiple roles in a film or with TV Episodes that have the new episode dividers in the cast section.  For every instance that a particular actors name appears in the cast list, DVDPM treats it as a seperate title when you click on that actors name to see what other films he/she has appeared in.

For example, I clicked on Robert Patrick in the cast list of Bridge to Terabithia.  The screen for the films he's appeared in opens and everything is peachy util I reach Seasons 8 & 9 of the X-Files and whooa!  X-Files Season 8 is now listed 21 times and Season 9 19 times...once for each time Robert Patrick's name appears in the cast lists for those titles.

It's not isolated to just the use of TV Series episode dividers.  Click on Eddie Murphy and Norbit is listed 3 times because Eddie Murphy played 3 roles in Norbit and is listed 3 times in the cast list.

My question is, is this a feature or bug? .

Edited: It's actually worse that I thought...I own both the Collector's Edition and the Slim Packs of Seasons 8 & 9 of the X-Files...so, Season 8 is listed 42 times and Season 9 38 times .

I also have noticed this.  I think it might be a feature because I have noticed the same behavor in the desktop DVDP.  this is another reason for not using episode dividers for TV series.  I "cleaned" up the first season of 24 and removed all the "duplicate" actor and actors so they only listed once and the space just from that one box set that I saved on my PDA was noticable.

I didn't notice this behaviour in the desktop version of Profiler.  When I click on Robert Patrick in the cast list of Bridge to Terabithia in the desktop version, The X-Files Seasons 8 & 9 are only listed twice, as they should be. Not so in DVD Profiler Mobile.

I double checked again, and my bad.  The desktop app does NOT have this issue.  Sorry guys, I think I need some glasses.

It takes some time and some work but re-arrange your episodes and remove the dividers, then lock you cast in that profile.  I know it is a pain but it will work for now. 

It took me several hours just to do 24 season 1 and I have got several more to go. 

When you do it at the desktop level it also speeds up your back up time and sync time with the PDA.
