    1. Ability to add movies on networked volumes

      All my movies are on my Time Capsule, or attached to an NSLU2-networked drive.... not on my computer. There is no way to add a location in Multiplex, so no movies are showing up in the listing....

        • will it be possible to stream to AppleTV?

          this is a necessity. Or, the ability to create files that can be used by it.

          thanks

          • show episodes on a disc for TV shows

            Not sure how you will eventually group discs, but many TV shows I have on DVD are multiple discs per season. It would be really great to be able to look at the episode list for each disc w/o having to play it and click through the DVD menu. This would allow browsing of episodes, and also make trying to find a specific episode much easier.

              • Add Apple remote support

                For Multiplex to be a proper home cinema system, it needs to have this.

                • Support categories

                  Have a user editable list of categories: Comedy, Favorite, Kids, Classic,... Perhaps editable in preferences.

                  In each movies detail have a drop down list of categories, each time you select one it checks or unchecks that category for that movie

                  Put a drop down category list next to the search, All, Comedy, Favorites, Kids,... The selection would be a filter on your collection.

                  I have over 400 movies and NEED more organization capabilities. iTV finally supports playlists which lets me do this. I'd rather use Multiplex, BUT.... right now Multiplex doesn't even search metadata Genre

                    Tagging is one of the next things we’re thinking of implementing, which would make searching better, as well as give categorization to movie collections. As for metadata search, that’s on its way.

                  • Search returns results from Metainfo

                    Allow the search in the main view to return results from the metainfo, and not just the titles of the DVD's. And to toggle this with some sort of simple UI element.

                    Example: I want to search for all my movies that have a specific actor, or were produced in a certain year, etc.

                      Would be nice to be able to import my DVD library of scanned info from Delicious Library directly into Multiplex.

                      Delicious Library 2.x support export to XML, RTF, BibTeX, CSV (tab/comma delimited), and Excel SYLK files

                        * the user interface
                        * the search engine in order to have information in the language needed, according to the movie

                          I noticed you mention PS3 in your 1.1 features, but not Xbox 360. Is this something that's in the works, too?

                            XBox 360 claims to support the DLNA architecture, which is how we plan to stream to the PS3 as well. So in theory, yup :)

                                    It's a pretty awesome feature to have. I'm sure you know how it works.

                                      We’ve already started building an iSight bar-code reader. It’s being developed, but I can’t promise it will be out by 1.0.

                                      Please create a supplemental iPhone application that will allow me to access a DB of DVDs in my library. I have over 200 DVDs on my system and it would cut out the hand jamming excel sheets I use now.

                                      • Add IMDB ratings

                                        Please add the ability to see the user ratings of the movie at IMDB.com. Other ratings (like the Amazon) would also be interesting.

                                        • Make the movie browser more convenient?

                                          I love the app, but I hate the movie browser. It is very inconvenient and hard to use. How about a scrollbar at the bottom? Making the movies go all fish-eye is not good.

                                          • Having my Own Movie Reviews !! :)

                                            I'm a movie lover and always want to say something about the film I just watched, and also hear what the others think.
                                            Would it be great if the coming Multiplex could develope as a platform for we movie-lovers, not just to view our movie collections, but also share and review our feelings and thoughts about those movies? :)

                                            I think it would be great if:

                                            1) one more "My Review" tab (in the "movie info" area) for my own review... (within Multiplex)
                                            2) search function to see others' review who owned the same movie as me... (within Multiplex)
                                            3)… more
