First of all

Big grats to all for the vitality and the nice atmosphere of this forum
You're giving the hope to maintain my dvd collection with more and more pleasure seeing the hard work you've all done.

I've seen the RossRoy collection and would like to ask two questions:

The first one is concernant the filters on the left part of the screen: you have enabled a filter on cast and role. Wonderful !!!!
Is possible to use your method to filter your collection and keep the list / detail / cover choice available?
The list is the most readable but i like also sometime to see the front cover with some informations on the films to browse my collection. Or is there a way to be able to search on role and not only on actor with the basic search option? => Daniel Craig : ok but James Bond : unknown 

My second question is also concerning the "role" of our actors 
I found where can be shown a picture of the actor but i would like also to add a picture of the role plazyed by the actor on this film
Is it possible ?

Accept my apologizes, i'm sure those are noob questions   
Thanks in advnace for the time you're going to use to read and still more to answer to my questions

As for the photos or headshots, a particular actor can currently only have one headshot and it's shared between all profiles that actor is in.

Unless of course you have different variations of the same actor's name in your database.

True, I thought of that too but that also defeats linking of profiles and you'll have to add [likely] fake birth years to have multiple versions along with all the complications and restrictions that brings.

Thanks a lot for your replies

The filter i'm asking about seems to be part of phpDVDprofiler

Do you think possible to use it in DVD Profiler layout and still having the possibility to show it in list / detail / cover view?

Have a look here and you can see how to include an image gallery for each film. This would enable you to keep the pictures of the actors in any particular film separate from other pictures. I've used this in dvd profiler myself.
