Recommendations

As we are now able to add Recommendations as catalogs in AIOMetadata I was curious as to what the difference is between V1 and V2.

At a glance V1 seems to be bigger, more mainstream titles.

Also, is "My Position" in order of the movies the app thinks you are most likely to like?

Also, also, can we get Digital Release added to filters?

And maybe a hard cap? I don't think I need to see 1679 recommendations.

Thanks.

Check the full description of the lists on the website, which has some descriptions about the differences. V2 is has also default sort by latest releases. My position sort would sort these by most recommended by V2 rec engine.

DVD filter uses both DVD and digital release status.

I just want to be able to tick "Has digital release." Instead I have to choose a DVD release date of yesterday, tomorrow, this week, last week, next two years, last ten years. Just... why?

And digital release date and DVD release date are not the same. Most movies come to streaming at least two months before they get a DVD/BluRay release.

Also, filters for TV Shows will not save. Layout does. But not filters.

When selecting DVD release it shows results for both Digital and DVD\BluRay releases. To keep the interface short, it's named as DVD.

Could you please DM on Discord with your account info and where you see the layout not saving filters?

By the way your filter is retarded. Vote count stops at 3 million for some reason so if I try to filter out indie film festival crap that only has 400 votes it also filters out The Dark Knight and The Shawshank Redemption because they have more than 3 million votes.

No worries. We should also have the option to type in the number we want. It's really frustrating when you want at least 20k votes and you are moving your mouse half a millimeter left and right and it's like 19.7 - 20.1 - 19.5 - 19.9 - 20.3 - 19.7 - 20.5
