| | Posted: July 24, 2007 5:51 PM | | | | Just noticed this, If you display the first cast/crew member of a tv show it will show the divider (if there is one). For example it will show the name of the episode. |

| | Posted: August 16, 2007 9:06 PM | | | | That's not a problem, that's what the dividers are designed for. This way we can add cast lists per episode. | | | View my collection at http://www.chriskepolis.be/home/dvd.htm

| | Posted: August 16, 2007 11:36 PM | | | | In fact Marell IF you read the Rules you will find that is how we do it.
"Individual profiles for each disc may be submitted if desired, but this is not required. Add these profiles to the box set contents of the parent profile. When submitting a change to an existing TV series profile that is currently a box set, do not remove the existing contents.
In either case, the cast and crew are to be entered into the parent profile using appropriate episode dividers.

| | Posted: August 16, 2007 11:41 PM | | | | Except we're talking reports here, not profiles, so the rules don't apply.
If I understand correctly, the report, instead of displaying the first cast member, is displaying the first entry, which sometimes can be a divider. I'm afraid I'm not good enough at reports to help. |

| | Posted: August 16, 2007 11:53 PM | | | | OK, I've got a sort of workaround.
What I did was place 2 cast boxes over the top of each other and set the condition of one to display if "television" is not a genre, and other to display if the genres do contain "television" - and in this box, I set the start index to 2, not 1.
Unfortunately this way assumes that all cast lists with dividers have television as a genre, and that all television profiles contain dividers.
Although I have to admit, I'm confused as to why you'd only want the top 1 actor to display anyway? |

| | Posted: August 18, 2007 12:22 AM | | | | northblokes got it in one, thats exaclt what I mean. I'll give your workaround a try tomorrow. I usually display the first 4 actors but its still annoying that it shows the divider in the first slot. Plus it also does it with director, of which I only display 1. |
