When I double-click on an actor (or a crew member for that matter) a list of titles pops up where this actor also played a role.



But when I double-click on another movie, it simply jumps to the movie, but not to the role of that actor. I have to look for it manually.



It would be great if DVDP could automatically select the (first) appearance of that actor in the list - which would make it much easier to find him/her in a long list, especially when the actor is credited differently.

...and here I'm lost.  Why do you have to double-click on another movie to see his role? It's written on a windows you double-click

In my opinion it works now as it should.

I don't see a problem with this and it would make sense to me. Certainly give it an option so that people have the choice of it.

Okay, I am looking at this from a TV show junkie POV. On a movie it's okay to see the character's name. But in a TV show it's also important in which episode that character appeared.

OK, now I get it. I missed the episode point.
