Hi,
is there a way of viewing more info about the actors in a movie than just the standard, how plays who?
I´ve noticed that Mediaportal downloads pictures of the actors, but puts them to no use.

the IMDB download info will tell you "who plays who".
this is already there (it doesn't show the actors picture though)

So there isn´t anyway of making use of the downloaded images?

 

[mcbelly]

depends on what you consider "making use".... ,-)

In My Videos change the view to "actors" and you´ll see a bio and links to the actors movies in your library.
Very uncomfortable and therefor pretty useless.

But it´s there.....

That´s the problem, I can change the view to Actors, but all I get is the who-plays-who, and can´t get any bio info. (Note. I´m only using the MCE remote and have no keyb. connected to the computer.)
Any solutions? It´s not a big deal, I just hate not beign able to do something that should be possible.

Uups... Forget the whole question, I´ve got MP to display in Finnish, and assumed that the actors view was in the IMDB space. But I found what I was loking for now...
