Courios about this myself... should be a option to disable it (who uses it, anyway?).

I use the DVD plugin (the plugin imports my data from DVDProfiler - which is free external db tool) from dukas and I can see the actors!

You just need to switch your view... then it will show all the actors in all your movies... you can find the movie you want to watch by the actor.

Go to "My movies" and change view to actors.
Now you can see all the downloaded actors.

Yes, I can see a list of actors, but no pictures of them... Nor any other info. Am I doing something wrong?

P.s Love your Spinsafe Nature skin.

Have you added some movies to the database? And have you changes to big icons? the listview only views very very small pictures.
And sometimes there are actors that have no pictures to be downloaded.

And i´m glad someone liked the SpinSafe Nature skin.

I finaly found the actors listing. I thought it would be under IMDB-> actors and not in the My Movies->View->Actors.
Anybody thought of crossreferensing this to the IMBD->Actors? So that you would be able to choose an actor from that file menu?
