Expanding the current SD/HD version functionalityW00t first thread in here! I'll copy/paste from a thread elsewhere previously :). What would be great is if Plex lists a movie once, but when you select it it then comes up with all the multiple different cuts that you've got in your PMS.

Absolutely somthing like your mock up. Plex need to pay attention to this and take it on board. The time for sticking their heads in the sand is over!

This is certainly a workable solution for most. However, currently Plex uses IMDb ID’s for a movie, meaning if you watch one cut, say 1 hour into Theatrical, then all other cuts also shows 1 hour into that movie. That in turn can result in fx the Theatrical being -30 min left because the Extended is…

[image] yozza0: Something like this? [image] I was thinking a more simple list (like in my mockup), but having separate posters looks pretty good. I guess the downside there is Plex would have to come up with a way to manage the various posters. Or alternatively they would need to create a …

Mockup looks great. This thread is nearly 10 years old, hope that Plex integrates that feature near-soon.

The frustration here, personally, is that the music scanner does a very good job of recognising different realeases from the same release group as distinct releases when in seperate directories. I don’t mind editing the title for different cuts/editions of movies, but when they’re in seperate direct…

[image] kamhouse: I was thinking a more simple list (like in my mockup), but having separate posters looks pretty good. Thanks :blush: Like I said in my previous post ( [Implemented] - Multiple Cuts Of Movie - #591 by yozza0 ), I liked your mockup too, but my issue with the simple list approach…

An example of how this could be implemented: Create a new “Cuts” label category: [image] All movies with a “Cuts” label that matches the “Cuts” label of at least one other movie will be presented using a special “Multiple Cuts” info/preplay screen. For example, the mockup I created above: [im…

You’re describing a Collection with a slightly different UI! :slight_smile: If this was a Collection-level setting, it could leverage everything that Collections already leverage. It doesn’t even need a new tag type, just a per-collection setting. The visible-but-not-working-yet “Custom” ordering o…

[image] Volts: I think a lack of metadata sources is the other significant problem. Apart from file naming issues, I don’t think there’s any place to get data on alternative cuts. The cuts would need to get unique guids, at least. That almost seems like a harder problem. This is where the ear…

I’ve noticed that Plex has removed the 2 that used to appear in the corner of a movie that had multiple versions, making it harder to see what movies have multiple cuts as the “play version” button is buried in the overflow menu on most clients
