Also very true, but that means TV Recordings should also go under Movies?
(Maybe I'm crazy, but that's where I over and over again start looking for
my 'Recorded Movies from TV' ;)
Can I propose to make it a configurable item?
Plugin.avtive('new improved plugin by Tanja','place to put it!');
(With the bonus that we might even move items the way we want it?)
Greets and may the shooting begin,
Frank
BTW: I accually don't care where we put it... As long I can use it ;)
