    Greetings, I have movies that are Part 1 and Part 2 or English version Spanish version per the following convention:

    MovieName.(1#BluRay)
    MovieName.(2#DVD)

    Now the files are separate in HT posterwall instead of being able to choose the version under a single poster. Is this no longer supported with the new AML chip?

    Well, that’s puzzling. It was just like you show with the Z10, but not with the Z3000 Pro.

    Yeah - odd - that example was from a quick test on my Z9X 8K.

    Here are a couple of examples of my library: 2 versions of 2012 which used to automatically be nested inside one poster and the forced versions (Part 1 and Part 2 which are in reverse order in the poster wall.

    I hope this formats correctly. These were correctly displayed in the Z10, but do not in the Z3000.

    Well I gotta tell you I haven't got a bloody clue!!

    I just tried Jack Snyder (didn't want to use 2012 because I already have that as a single movie) and guess what...

    No worries, it is just unusual and I thought I was doing something wrong.

    Mark, about Justice League I have both the Zack Snyder version and the previous version of 2017 and I would like to find a way to combine them both under a single poster. I have already joined the two parts of the SNYder version in a single MKV file. Both movies are MKV 1080p. Can you give me an idea of how I can rename both files?

    They need a common name, so you can't use "Jack Snyder's Justice League" and "Justice League" so I would do something like:

    Justice League.(1#Original).mkv
    Justice League.(2#Jack Snyder).mkv

    Good idea! I will try to rename them in this way. Thanks Mark!

    Operation performed perfectly! I renamed the files in this way:

    Justice League. (1#Joss Whedon)

    Justice League. (2#Zack Snyder)

    And the result is how I wanted it. Thanks again for the advice!

    FYI - the recent apk corrected the problem.

    If I use a file suffix eg (1#Extended) at the end of a movie title it will only show up in the movie details if I have a second version of the movie eg (2#Directors Cut).
    I have a number of single movies where I would like to have the suffix show up in details to remind me what version I have.
    Is there any way a single entry can be shown and if not could it be considered for future updates?

    That's correct - If there's only one version, a version box is a bit pointless.

    Just edit the movie title in the web interface to say "MovieName (Extended Version)"

    If you don't want to edit the title, edit the synopsis.
