Hi, I was just wondering if there is a way to list the cast for a movie during browsing.

I tried this but it doesn't work.

<control type="textbox">
<description>Cast</description>
<posx>0</posx>
<posy>0</posy>
<width>200</width>
<height>500</height>
<align>left</align>
<label>$INFO[ListItem.CastAndRole]</label>
</control>

Is the Cast listing only available for the movie info window?
Thanks

Correct - it is only available in the movie info window.

It won't be available for some time in the "normal" xbmc directory browsing, as it adds significant overhead to retrieve that data, and thus will require a redesign on how and when data is fetched.

Cheers,
