sorry if this has been covered before, but is there any way to play movies with one click in My Films? I dont rerally like the way you have to enter the film first, and then click 'play'.

99% of my films are VOB dvd rips btw.:D

i cant as i have my dvd rips on several different drives and want to view them in one list.

i know you can do this with database view, but i havent got access to the internet at home to be able to scan all my films with IMDB, so i cant use database view.

    I'd second that!

    An option to skip the detail page would be great!
    Done for future version with 'P' key.

    Hi Zebons,
    I have one questions regarding fileaccess:
    In Older Versions of MyFilms entering the plugin and looking into the movie descriptions did NOT access the files itself - this happened, when entering the "detailspage" (and starting the movie of course).
    Very nice, because ma HDs usually do spin down and I prefer them not to spin up just to see movie descriptions.
    With newer versions, there seems to be fileaccess earlier - just when entering the plugin and browsing Movieinfos - even before entering details view.
    I am using latest SVN MP and MyFilms.
    Is this a change in MyFilms or MP? Or even better: Is there a way to go back to former behaviour?
    (And yes, the ANT DB, Fanart and Thumbs are NOT on the share where the movies reside.)
    Thanks für your help and the grat plugin!
    Guzzi

    Hi, it looks like the Client's server connection settings got corrupted somehow and were reset, hopefully this is an easy fix.

In the menu on the left there may be an option Detach from home server, if there is click it and acknowledge the dialog that pops up...
