Hi,
Recently I started to use the new Plex Movie agent. In the new Plex Movie agent, there is no option to set movie cast source. The issue is, all movie cast list is limited only 10! How can I increase this? 10 cast list is very low for some movies like Avengers: Endgame.

Thanks

Plex only recently discovered Actors.
10 is a major step forward from the 0 I have on my FireTV.

I was going to ‘bad-mouth’ Endgame with Mad, Mad, Mad (X10) World’s 54, but I had to stop counting Endgame at 54…lol

Plex definitely has violent allergic reactions to Actors - it’s one of the mysteries of life.

I recently switched to Plex. Before that, I was using Emby. Listing actor in Plex is terrible. In Emby, there’s a actor page where I can see actor’s bio, movie list & IMDb, MovieDB etc. list. In Plex, only search possible by a actor name. Before the new movie agent, atleast I can view all the actor list. Now I am limited to only 10!(WTF)

There is a long thread about this - and other quirks with the new Plex Movie agent here:

Thanks.
I saw the post but had read only the first few comments.

Just switched back to the legacy one. After reading New Plex Movie agent this. I realized that the new new Plex movie agent should be a alpha release, not beta.

With latest beta and refreshed metadata this limit seems to be removed. Avengers now lists 125 actors.

Noticed that myself today also while testing the new agent again. Pleasantly surprised and a good decision to get right.

Looks like the issue is finally resolved! Last time I checked the issue was exists for about 30-40% of the movies.
