| Posted: | | | | Unless I'm overlooking something, there's right now no way to view a single list showcasing all DVDs in my collection where one particular individual is credited.
Let's take Clint Eastwood as an example.
I can either filter all movies where Eastwood is credited with acting work, or all movies in which he's done crew work.
I'd like to be able to create a list containing any DVD I have in which he's credited with doing anything.
Preferably a checkbox when I double-click on his name in an individual profile, but I'd take a modification to the filters as well.

| Posted: | | | | You wont be able to do it under the current system as Cast & Crew are separate lists. Well, you could do it with Tags, but that could take a long time to set up. If it could be done then I think it's a good idea but we have enough problems linking within one section, let alone two! |

| Posted: | | | | I've never understood why we have two name databases, it would be great if when you brought up the Information window for a person, you saw all their work, not just acting or crew but both together (maybe have tabs within the window to keep it tidy). | | | Last edited: by northbloke |

Me neither, but it would indeed be great. Back when we were told that we should use birth years whenever we were faced with a cast and a crew member sharing the same name, I took that as a sign that at some point, cast and crew would cross-link. But it hasn't materialized yet. |

| Posted: | | | | Quoting Forget_the_Rest: Quote: You wont be able to do it under the current system as Cast & Crew are separate lists. Exactly. Which is why I made this request. I'm sure it could be coded into the backend, even with two separate lists. I do agree with others though, that having one list would be ideal. Although I would then like to be able to filter based on type of work. So if I wanted to get a list of all my movies in which Clint Eastwood acts, I can do that without also generating a list of the movies he's only directing.
