Hi can anyone help? I am fairly new to this, but as a fan of DVD, having almost 800 of them at the moment, am loving it!!!

Is there an easy way to bring up a list of cast duplicates ? (or near duplicates is probably a more accurate description) I often find my cast lists having 2 or more actors, where they are in fact the same person, maybe with an apostrophe, or having a middle initial, misplaced as part of the surname. I go through as often as I can and remove one or other, and then delete - but it seems to be a never-ending issue. Does this make sense to anyone, and if so is there a shortcut ??

Thanks

Your answer lies in the Name Variant plugin:

Also, I heavily recommend checking out the Plugin forum. The available plugins thread in particular:

Although it might also be a good idea to first get to know the program really well before messing about with plugins. Not because the plugins are complicated to use, but because sometimes what you seek is already available within the program itself.
