What does 'no success' mean?

 

And from what are you doing this (an application, a browser...)?

IncludeItemTypes=Movie  (Returns movies excluding those in a boxset)

No way that I can see to get a list of all movies including those in boxsets

Currently browser

Have you went to my preference and unchecked "group movies into collections"?

 

Dashboard user icon-my preferences

Yeah, that call is going to respect the user setting.

 

There used to be an explicit option you could supply to make the box sets roll up - but it was intended to make it happen not keep it from happening.  But maybe CollapseBoxSetItems=false will work...?

 

This is not going to continue to work from a browser once we institute the tighter security on the server.  Just FYI.

thanks guys actually got it working, with a little digging through MBC logs came up with

 

/mediabrowser/users/{UserID}/items?Recursive=true&IncludeItemTypes=Movie%2CBoxset
