Filtering Enhancement

Thu Feb 16, 2023 5:33 pm

Hi Hector glad to greet.

I have another suggestion in order to make the app more practical, saving time is always thanked. This time the addition is for both PERSON and MOVIE boxes. This is the situation, let's say we are placed on any movie and we notice the movie was produced by several countries and it has several genres. If we want to filter the movies by country or genre, instead of going to the filtered search section and pick a country from the very long dropdown list (which takes longer), we could use the genres and countries displayed on the icon dashboard but converted into links, to make the filtering a lot faster. These links could work to jump directly to the filtered search. That way Neighbors, genres, countries and tags would all be links.

Finally my suggestion for the PERSON box is to include the possibility of filtering by MOVIE or SERIE besides Director, Starring, Crew, Owned, Watched, Not Watched, because sometimes we are not interested in checking Series.

again, just a suggestion to better the user experience, we always appreciate time saving solutions.

Best regards.

I'm aware that setting the filters to make searches can be very tedious and we end up making less searches because it's too much of a chore. I will very soon introduce a series of improvements that will make it much faster and easier. It'll involve saved searches, and much much more. I think it'll work so well that it'll make your suggestion unnecessary!

Ok, I add it to my todo list. When the filmography has both movies and series, checkboxes will make it possible to select one type or the other.

Still on my todo list, but it's low priority, I'm working on other things for the moment.

Fine!

something else.
I've noticed that we can filter movies by "Video Details" such as sound, runtime, language and subtitles.

is it possible to scan all this data from local files during the scanning process, instead of doing it manually one by one?

Greetings Hector

As I said, it's low priority. Hopefully it'll happen someday, but it won't be soon.
