    Remove The 200 Movie Limit From Our Custom Lists...

    Vudu can you please remove the 200 movie limit from our custom lists? What's the purpose behind such a low limit? I can't complete my sci-fi movie custom list because I've hit a 200 movie limit.

    #2
    I agree! No need for limits on custom lists!

        Resource limitations I suspect. I've got 3000 movies and I created no where near 200 collections. Potter, Bond, Star Wars, etc.

        How are you topping out already?

          Apparently it's easy! Since the Vudu genre filter is broken for movie bundles when selecting for example the "sci-fi" genre, non of my "sci-fi" movies that are in a bundle will show up in the filtered collection. So to remedy this problem that Vudu doesn't seem to care to ever fix and seems to have been around forever, even though Vudu has been told about it on multiple previous occasions. I have now tried to create custom genre lists for example sci-fi, action, drama, comedy, family, animation, etc. That's how I hit the 200 movie limit, and I'm back to scare one. (:

            It's not 200 lists its 200 movies within a list that is the limit.

                Following the list organization priority established by the movie High Fidelity in which the best form of organization is by Year, I've created a list of the best movies for each year. However there are a few years that I have over 200 movies from the same release year. This has only happened for a few years. The pandemic threw the title count back quite a bit but increasing it by even 50 titles would be quite helpful. That said others may have "lower" standards in their movie acquisition then I do and have well over 200 movies released in the same year since they were willing to acquire the rights to movies that were flops in the box office and critic/audience reviews. Note also that I am coming very close to running out of my 100 list limit since we are approaching 100 years of movie releases. For now I've bundled some of the earliest decades like the 20s together into 1 list. At the end of the day I think the max number of lists and max number of movies per list should scale with a person's collection. In other words reward your best customers the most flexibility in their list feature. If you have 10,000 movies why shouldn't you have access to an expanded movie list feature vs say someone with 500 movies in their collection?

                  A couple examples where we've annoyingly hit the 200 title max List limit:
                  • Animation -- kids animation titles easily slammed up against the 200 limit, so we moved some to "Disney", "Pixar", "Animated Superhero" lists ... though we'd have preferred a single list.
                  • 4K/UHD -- lacking a quick filter to see just the titles we've purchased in 4K, we created a "4K/UHD" list, and manually add titles to the list as new 4K content is acquired (Movies or TV Shows); well, I got in a 4K kick in the last year and now have over 200 UHD titles ... so had to create parallel "4K/UHD (#,A-M)" and "4K/UHD (N-Z)" lists, with the two lists separating franchises and related content into different lists in many cases. Boo.

                    We'd prefer a My Movies filter for UHD but, absent that, would love to get our UHD titles into a single list.

                    Well I have > 3 x your collection and a list for each year that movies were produced and sort them according to Bruce Cogerson's Ultimate Moving Rankings. I toss in a few extra movies he missed each year (foreign, made for tv movies, documentaries, etc.). When you think about movies starting to be produced ~1920s by hitting 2024 we already need 110 lists just to cover each year and climbing. Now since there aren't too many movies in the 20s that are available in digital I've collapsed them into fewer lists but I want a couple of lists for Hallmark TV movies. Some years have more than 200 movies that I have in my collection. Would be nice then to have not just more than 100 lists but the ability to have more than 200 movies in a particular list. Alternatively, one could add specific movie year filters instead of decades but then you would lose control of sorting the movies however you wanted. I find the work Bruce did in crafting the UMR scores to be very helpful way of prioritizing which movies to watch first in any given year's list. UMR scores are based upon box office results, reviews, and Oscar awards.
                    I suppose another option would be to license his UMR rankings and offer that as a sort. Wouldn't help me in my adding in a few movies he missed but would save me the trouble of building out his lists on my own. Ok then my 3rd request comes to mind. If we can create our lists, let us share them with others or offer us a way to export our lists and let others import them. Perhaps this idea belongs to 3rd party browser extension gurus.

                      You really need a front-end like Kaleidescape, Emby, Plex, or likewise. Or in your case even more so.

                      I welcome and have also asked for many, many more filter and sort options. It's way to limited and varies (wildly) depending on what screen your one.

                      Apple TV interface needs to match Roku (minus purchasing of course) and Roku needs to be taken to higher level of Kaleidescape or the more advanced HTPC software.

                      If there was just a way to get Vudu integrated with Emby / Plex we would be half way there.

                        This would be nice. I have made several lists that hit the 200 title limit. Granted many of those lists are to combat either a lack of filters (ie holiday movies, anime) or filters that simply don't work (kids and family, superheros). I have a very large library and filters that should show over a thousand titles sometimes don't even show 200, hence the need for lists. The superheros filter only includes about 4 of the Disney Marvel movies, another half dozen of the DC live actions and the rest are made for tv animated. (The filter shows 47 titles, one of my Superhero lists has 120. I have 99 titles in my Marvel list alone which is a mix of block buster live action pre and post disney purchases of marvel and fox plus admittedly some marvel tv series inflating the numbers a little. DC I have over 190 titles in that list with a similar mix of live action and animated movies and tv shows.) But primarily given the difficulties with search and filters the kids in the house have their own libraries hitting 200 or more because of all the kids and family movies I own for them to browse through when they want something.
