Movies vs Title, and random music suggestion
I want "Movies" to show in category view (ie. *, A, B, C etc.) - it's very strange to me that it defaults to a "display content only" mode showing all your movies in one list, which could be hundreds (navigates very slowly on my BD player).
I can use "Titles" instead (and this is what I do) but "Titles" shows other stuff I don't want it to show (ie. uncategorised stuff with no meta data).
I would either like an option for Movies to respect "Display category" option, or for uncategorised stuff with no retrieved or embedded metadata to show up only on "Folder" so that it doesn't clutter "Titles".
Another suggestion for Music presentation this time: Playlists (Random). Basically Playlist, but every time you open a Playlist it's in a random order. This is for players with no built in shuffle function. There is the "Random Music" category but this randomises your entire library - not practical if you want to listen to a randomised playlist of say, Easy Listening or something.
Even better would be if you could reorganise the "Random Music" by category.
Say
Random Music
- All Music
- Playlists
- Albums (not to be confused with Random Album, this would show each Album normally alphabetically, but then randomise the individual tracks when you open it)
- Artist
- Album Artist
This way you can have a choice of randomised versions of everything else you have selected in Presentation, say if you want a randomised playlist of all music by one artist, or play a particular album in random order. I realise most players have a shuffle function built in, so this would be primarily for those that didn't (like mine). To simplify it's basically identical to your main presentation menu, however at the track (not folder) level, it's shuffled.
I also have further tweaks to an old Sony BDP 2012 profile that I add back in every version, is there somewhere I can submit my changes to the official version (I believe I had some changes included some time ago, but I have made a few more).
