[QUOTE="fforde, post: 840458, member: 52082"] This is a common problem and probably something we should address sooner or later. Sorry for your troubles. As far as duplicate genres go, we could probably add a rule based genre merging system. [URL="http://code.google.com/p/moving-pictures/issues/detail?id=1078"]I created a ticket[/URL] for this, star it to get email updates and to "vote" for it getting done sooner rather than later. ;) In the dynamic categories on the menu we could probably also filter out genres that have only one or two movies in them, we already do this for actors, directors, and writers. This approach worries me a bit though, it could easily negatively affect folks with smaller collections. I intentionally wrote our search functionality in a way that could be utilized by other plugins.
