What do you think about this?
The background can be blurred:

Hi Richard how's you long time no chat.

Like the blur effect as it makes things easier to read. Would it be possible to put movie collections in the movies as I like to keep all my movies in one place. Just tried out the iPad pro nice device but the Wight and the lack of 3D Touch made me decide not to buy this version. Maybe the next version.

Doing great here. I agree with you about the blur effect. Really like it a lot.
Forgot about the movie collections in the new Movies XL. There's the option to retrieve the setid of the movie (if applicable). So I know if movies belong to eachother. Haven't got an idea (yet) how to get that information in the view.

Hi Richard

Why not have one poster for the movie collections when you select it the movies inside the collection slide out from the poster of the collections and push the other movies along. Same when closed.

So when the collection slide out and you select a movie it shows the info as normal.

Just a thought.

I know what you mean. But how to recognize it's part of a movie collection in the view with all the posters (or backgrounds)? An additional icon on top of the cover? Or an transparant rectangle at the top with the text collection inside?

Keep in mind the Movies XL was done for large collections and speed. Any additional logic and retrieving data will make it slower. Probably needs to be a setting then :-)

I like the blur effect so much I have decided to make it the default. The theme settings were a Pro feature that's why I made it available to everyone so you could disable it :-)

Will the "play all songs from this Artist" button also be added in 1.9?

I think so. I will add an option that displays a play button over the artist cover.

As requested I have added the option:

yep, this problem is fixed. Just tested it again! :-)

...and this version will have to do for a while (unless serious things are found of course), because of the iPhone version I am going to do.

1.9 looks absolutely great! Thank you very much.

Did you solve the "Files" sort order problem? (Sort by name...)

Did you solve the problem that the screen changes when using the Buttons in the lower bar. (When in Remote Screen using Pause Button in the lower the screen changes to the menu screen)

Sorry if you fixed these in the last weeks....

The files sort options are still on my to do list.

And the remote control buttons in the custom bottom menu bar in the remote control view don't close the remote view anymore. That's fixed.

Thank you!

Black or blurred?

Because blurred is the new default setting, which you can change in the theme settings.
