thanks, but unfortunately this addable categorys are not working for me perfectly.

3D: ist not available.
sure, how can Moving Pictures know, which movie is in 3D? most 3D-movies have the standard- Full-HD-resolution 1920 x 1080.
maybe it could be solved, when I add a prefix "3D" in the name of these movie-files and Moving Pictures takes this info?

HD and non-HD: ist not very practicable

i can sort with, heigth and resolution.

i saw that I have a lot of different resolutions.

for example, i have withs with 1920, 1916, 1912, 1280, 1024 and a lot of smaller ones.

is it possible to summarize this values?

for example: Full-HD (1920 - 1800) / HD (1800 - 1200) / SD (1200 - 0)

then I have only 3 cathegories instead of 25!

thanks! ;)

    This could work. Use the matching rule: 'Original File Name - contains - 3D'

    Works perfectly for me and I see no problem here.

    Just use 'Video Width - is greater that - 1500'

    SD = video width < 1000
    HD = video width >= 1000 AND video width < 1500
    Full-HD = video width >= 1500

    It all depends what you consider to be part of those resolutions, so adjust accordingly.

    As above , for sorting your HD movies , create a filter based on video width .

    For 3D movies , I created a filter based on file path .
    I have my 3D movies in a separate folder ( G /movies/3D Movies )

    I have the filter set to include any movies in that folder to the "3D " category .

    See attached screenshot .

    Hope this helps :)

    Yes, unfortunately, this would need a code change to support it. Next time I'm doing something on the plugin I'll try and remember to add support for this sort order.

    Hi, I'll move this into an own thread under "feature requests". I like the idea, but I think we can currently not implement this with further changes. I've checked the models and there are no variables, that could be easily called.
