Boxset Folder Type = Person

[trusselo 220]

for the server metadata editor:

 

There are some situations where it would be nice to be able to set a folder boxset to 'be' a person and have/show bio info for that person.

 

Example

 

I have a media collection "Stand up"

it contains folder boxsets arranged by the performers name eg "George Carlin"

in each "folder boxset" is the standup films of that performer.

 

It would be nice if in the metadata editor, we could set the folder "George Carlin" to the info of person "George Carlin"

to have that persons bio info as the folder description and pull photos for the folder image.

 

both IMDB and themoviedb support people IDs, but the editor is not setup to support that.

there is also the people info that MB has already fetched, so there is plenty of ways to get the info to link but no way to link it.
