Request for shortcuts and a question about opening folders

Fri Oct 11, 2024 11:18 am

Hi Hector
It would be helpful to me if I can use keyboard shortcuts to select Movie Titles or Movie Filters when the other is displayed. A key that can toggle between the two would be just as helpful. Can you put that on your todo list please?

I have some shows which are stored as folders using the AUDIO_TS and VIDEO_TS system. I Usually mux such folders. However, I have run into a couple of theses folders where I want to keep and use the opening menu. Is there a way of getting COOLLECTOR to open such a folder? If it can do that then VLC will play it for me. Or do I have to break each of the 'chapters' into their own files and enter them like as if they are a series in COOLLECTOR?

How do you use the app? Are you in single-pane mode or in dual-pane mode?

If you want to quickly access the Movie Titles and the Movie Filters, have you gone into the settings and checked the "Individual Buttons" for those panels?

When the scanning algorithm finds a VIDEO_TS folder, it identifies it as a playable movie. It's supposed to work, please describe what's not working.

Strange, I have quite a few DVD structured videos and Coollector picked them up just fine. As far as the playback goes I'm pretty sure Coollector will use whatever program you have set as your default playback app, I prefer Media Player Classic and Coollector plays videos back with that on my system since I have it set to default.

Thank you for confirming that it's working as intended :D

Hopefully we'll be able to help Phantom54 solve his issue.
