[QUOTE="BakerQ, post: 257125, member: 57372"] I don't have a TV card in my HTPC (yet!), so MyTV-Series is the heart and soul of my MP installation. That said, there's one thing that makes using it somewhat confusing. When sorting the list of series, can we find some way to remove the indefinite articles from titles? Removing "A", "An", and "The" and placing them at the end of the title (for sorting purposes) would making finding a series in a large collection much easier. Currently the first title in my list is "A History of Britain", when it should honestly be alphabatized just after "Heroes". I'd expect "The IT Crowd" to show up right after it, but "The IT Crowd" shows up near the very end of the list. The source is already on my box, so I'm assuming I can fire up C# Express and recompile the plugin, but I'd rather not have to do that with each release. Thanks again for a plugin that I honestly think should be part of the standard MP installation. Okay, not five minutes after I post this request, I see a post about sorting episodes and editing views and see a "Name" vs. "Pretty Name" option. So, I'm just going to go crawl underneath a rock and wait for the rocks with RTFM etched onto them to come hurling at my head. I can't check MP until I get home tonight and if I can find the "Pretty Name" option I'll delete this thread. (*if* I can find it - I think I've already established that I'm an idiot.) [/QUOTE]
