What are the user groups in the MyVideos 1.3beta configuration good for? (1 Viewer)

Hi,
I'm wondering about the user group definitions in myVideos 1.3.
I defined some groups and assigned some movies to them, but I didn't find any feature in the skin for using them (I'm using the new Titan skin).
Is it designed for future use?

Hi,
you can use your groups as a View ("Userdefined Groups") inside of MediaPortal. That way only members of a group are displayed; basically the same as genre, year, etc.
I hoped to use this as selection inside the view configuration analogous to the music view configuration. But sadly that didn't work out the way I liked it to be...

Basically, it's a title view where you can auto group some titles according to some preferred rule or do it manually by assign movies to some group/groups.

Ie.: group James Bond movies into one line so you don't see all of them in titles but as one group (folder)
