    Hello!
    Is it currently possible to get a category in which you can see available movies only. I don't always have all my HDD's connected so it would be nice to see only the available movies.
    Thank you!

    Sorry, this is not currently possible. This is an enhancement I'd love to implement but because our current filtering system is tied to our database, dynamic stuff like this is not filterable. And the specific case of "availability" is even more difficult because this state can change at any time and it can take a non-trivial amount of time to check the current state.

    So the short answer is yes, this would be awesome, and it's something we could and would like to implement in the future. But there are complications.

    Thanks for your reply and afford! =)
    Maybe I'm adding a filter for HDD's then. This should be possible?

    You want to use the existing "Full Path" filter condition then. You can then do comparisons to "begins with" = "X:\" or any other way you prefer to do your filters.

    Hi. I was probably being a bit fast and loose with my terminology. I meant "somewhere within the files that MP2 uses in its database". Anyway, I found a way to do this which was far from automated but relatively low effort. I found what looked like all the images (CD covers, DVD covers, backgrounds etc all lumped together in...

    I don't know about MP2 but as you said you tried MP1 too, how is the MP music config ? MP(1) will only use LAV if you select "Internal DirectShow player" as music output, but then you lose gapless playback. If you you don't have multichannel music you can choose WASAPI as the output and set the number of speakers to stereo. I have...
