Search Cast across all libraires

Hi,

I would like to know if there is an option to get all the works in which an actor has acted, accross all librairies.

I mean that if I click on the picture of an actor in the TV shows library, it will show all the TV shows in which the actor has played but not in the other libraries like movies or others…

Thank you.

Ok, so I understand with this answer that it’s not possible when you click on the image in a library (you stay limited to the library).

But it is possible with the search, which is not super convenient with a TV remote.

Ok, thanks.

You understood wrong.

Read about the caveats in this article, which lists possible reasons why it won’t work.

Yes sorry, my English is not very good.
I scrolled through the reasons, I can’t see anything that can explain why it doesn’t work on my server.
But, never mind.

The library must use either the “Plex Movie” or the “Plex TV Series” agent. Any other agents will not work.
If the library has been converted from one of the older agents, you must “Refresh Metadata” of the whole library and let it run to completion.

The option “Include adult content” in the properties of all libraries must not be active.
The libraries must not be excluded from global search.

You must not be using a managed user account.

Oh yes, thank you very much, I never noticed that the “Include adult content” box was checked in all my libraries (even though I have no such content).

It’s now ok, thank you so much @OttoKerner for your patience, and for taking the time to summarize all the reasons.
