Actors limit in custom NFO (7 actors)? - ivan - 2014-11-07
Hello,
Is there a limit to haw many actors you can put in custom NFO.
I have just realised that no mater how many actors (with roles) I put in custon NFO file - Kodi only shows 7.
That a real problem for films like Hobbit - there are way more "main" actors.
Can I somehow cancel that limit?

There´s no such limit. Maybe the skin you´re using is only displaying seven actors?

As you can see - There are 8 actors listed
And this is how it looks in KODI

There should be 8th actor in Maleficent movie - Brenton Thwaites as Prince Phillip
and also Brenton Thwaites after Angelina Jolie in Actors
But he is nowhere to be found
Its the same with all movies - only 7 actors
EDIT: I'm using Kodi 14.0 Helix – Beta 1

That´s no valid nfo file. It is missing two closing actor tags (after role Diaval and Prince Phillip). To quickly validate those files just open them in eg. Firefox or any other browser. It should show you the exact spots.
RE: Actors limit in custom NFO (7 actors)? - ivan - 2014-11-08
OMG...you are right!
And since I've made tample nfo file with this error - all my movies show only 7 actors.
I will go now and jump through the window
I have searched all options in KODI, searched the Internet, this forum all because this silly mistake.
Anyway....thank you very much for spotting this mistake.
Hahahaha
Should I somehow delete this stupid thread and my stupid question? Or leave it for the whole world to see who is the biggest idiot

Hah. The internet never forgets
