I (and perhaps others) add "Other" crew for special features. Mainly I add Audio Commentary by credits in the other section.

But really these aren't crew members in the normal sense. If anything they are "Cast" of the special features.

I would like to see an "Other" section added to the cast section.
Perhaps a check box or a pull down menu option.
This Other cast section should allow for Dividers in cases of multiple audio commentaries, featurettes or the like.

Now of course some would say that one could just add a Manual Profile and add it as a Child Profile to the parent.
Problem with that is that in the cases of Box Sets it clutters that section up.

Now of course this Other Cast section would be ignored in any contribution and wouldn't be over-written in any profile update.


In a related matter with the Other Crew section.

If one has Group Dividers in the Other Crew section, such as for Audio Commentary Participants and trailers and update the profile. The program doesn't ignore the Other Crew dividers and changes them To Episode Dividers.

As Shown here.

Before Profile Update


After Profile Update


As you can see the program didn't ignore the Other Crew section and changed the dividers to the other type.

I see this more as bug than new feature request.

(It's a bug and a new feature request.)

Another use for a non-contributing cast section could be uncrediteds that one hasn't researched yet.  An interesting idea.

That's what I would say.

There are rate to deal with this but this is not what I would execute in the program. It rightly belongs to the features area.
ASSUME NOTHING!!!!!!
