With my growing movie collection - I’d love for a way to navigate through my movies based on their starting letter vs. scrolling through every single movie I own to get to the bottom where Zootopia lives.
For example, in the list view on tvOS, if I swiped in from the right on the ATV4 remote, a vertical alphabet would appear and I could jump to a section in my collection based on movies that start with that letter.
That said - thank you for providing me with a central hub to (very elegantly) store my entire video collection - very nice work!
When sorted by name, please show all letters A-Z and make clickable. This way if I know I want to watch a file that starts with a “Y,” I can click that letter and jump down to those files instead of scrolling for ages to get there.
Allow for sorting by newest movies first (release date)
As other have suggested a list view, possibly with metadata off to the right. Would allow for much quicker scrolling.
Allow us to change these sort options within the share. This way we do not have to back out to the main menu, go into settings, change the sort options, then go back in the share.
Requesting a letter index similar to what the official Plex app has to quickly navigate through the movies list.
This is the only blocker that currently prevents me from using Infuse 100%.
Let me explain why.
I don’t really enjoy using my Siri remote so I usually use my LG CX remote via CEC.
While this works fine for 95% of things, there are still some apps that lack some kind of support.
Infuse is one of those apps.
How can I go from the letter A to L with a TV remote when you have a library with thousands of movies? It will take ages…
That’s why I’m requesting a quick shortcut that allow us to jump to a specific letter.
Search sometimes helps, but I don’t remember the name of the movie I’m looking for much of the times, I just know it starts by that letter (I blame my age).
In Plex, when you go to your TV Show or Movie library, you are able to select a letter on the right hand side which will them jump straight to TV Shows or Movies that start with that letter. This makes is much easier to navigate through large libraries.
In this context, you could please also finally make the scrolling smoother! Currently it is very jerky when scrolling… This is not the case in other tvOS apps…
Therefore, it would be great if you then also optimize the Scrolling when you anyway rework the UI
I would suggest that if I press letter “M”, the library should jump to the files/folders/videos that starts with M. I want to watch Matrix, and I don’t want to scroll and find… (MacOS)
