possible option

Hi Hector,

i own a description of every movie in my own language, the plot offered
in coollector is in some English i hardly understand :-)
I know it's possible to add my own plot, this means copy and past the plots
of about 4000 movies from some Dutch sites....

The description i own from every movie is a picture file .jpg or .png that's in
the same folder where the movie is in, so lets say \\QSKINNAS\Films\Films 1 :
contains an folder called "4 for Texas (1963)" containing
1) VIDEO_TS or 4 for Texas (1963).mkv or 4 for Texas (1963).avi etc.
2) 4 for Texas (1963).jpg
3) poster.jpg

Where the 4 for Texas (1963).jpg shows the movieposter and the Dutch description
in landscape format. Would it be possible to add a link to such picture on the plot
window ? I added a screenshot of the most common picture dimensions.
This makes live A LOT easier :yes:

My plan is to add a "Links" tab that could hold links to either files on your disk or pages on the internet. The links would be added by dragging and dropping from your file explorer or your web browser, directly onto the movie window (no need to click the plot and select the "Links" tab).

Because I'm very busy working on other things, I don't know when I'll add this feature.
