Hi

Awesome app, just wanted to say that first.

But... is there any reason why the 'All' tab was not included in the ios version? I dont use it alot on the desktop, but would be handy in the mobile version.

Just a suggestion

Does anyone agree with this or should i add a new customer Collection called "Movies on DVD" and move all my dvd movies into this catagory.

then select all my custom collection to be included in the 'Owned' collection?

Is that what everyone else has done?

That's what I did.  And I actually kind of like it since I loan movies to friend who can only watch DVD.  So it's not really a bad solution for me.
Get the CSVExport and Database Query plug-ins here.
Create fake parent profiles to organize your collection.

Thanks for the reply

Thats what i might do then, i had a feeling most people did that, and i must admit it makes sense now.

Just not looking forward to moving 600 dvds across from owned to my new custom collection.

I don't know how your collection is setup or how you wish to do this.  But here's how I did mine.

1) I already had custom collections setup for HD DVD, Blu-ray and TV.
2) I set those custom collections up to not display in Owned (temporarily) thus just leaving my DVDs.
3) Collections -> Flags -> Flag All Filtered
4) Collections -> Flagged -> Move To -> my new custom collection type
5) Set all my custom collection categories to display in Owned again

It really wasn't that difficult.  Step 4 can take a few minutes to complete, but the rest is quick and easy

I still think a default ALL tab would be great and simple for most. Used it alot on my WM6.

I see what you mean Peter but that only works for those who uses the desktop version and not for those that only uses the iOS version, unless you tell me there is a way to include Custom Collections in the Owned tab in iOS.

Which maybe after this thread, I should start a new feature request to allow iOS version the ability to add to Owned tab

Okay, v1.01 finally allows me to remedy sync with the PC and I agree it is an excellent alternative to the ALL tab. But those that don't sync to a PC will appreciate that feature.
