Android TV - Movie Details from playlist?

I noticed on the Roku interface for plex, while browsing a playlist, I could hit the “…” and go to the movie details, which would take me to the movie with the plot, actors, etc. This button seems missing on the Android TV version on plex (Shield TV, FireTV and Nexus Player are the ones I have checked).

Am I missing some trick to go to the movie details in something on a playlist? I have a couple playlists of movies I want to watch, but its annoying not being able to see what each movie is about with out going up to search and searching for it in plex, checking out the description, then going back to the playlist to rinse and repeat with the next item.

you’re right. No “show details” in the “…” context menu and clicking a record will direly start playback.

Sorry to resurrect this post, but is this feature considered by the team ? I was thinking of writing a feature request in the appropriate section, but since you’re a moderator @tom80H, maybe you already spoke about it to the appropriate people ? Then again, it’s been 10 months and this isn’t implemented yet.
