Is there any way with extreme movie to group or associate different movies together. so you cab bring up all the movies you have that are sequels,prequels,or remakes. example if I wanted to see what planet of the apes movies I have. a simple search doesn't always work (sometimes sequels or movies that are related don't have the same name in title. Thanks
That's not possible on the direct way. But you can use a CustomField to store if it is a sequel, etc. A few scripts already do get the info of Movie Chains but I think the info is stored among with other info. Another way would be to use BoxSets...

I thought about box sets but couldn't figure out or find any info on how to set them up. I did figure one way using catlogno field it actually works but not as easy as I would like. thanks for the suggestion, where would I find info on boxsets
Unfortunately there is no further info on the wiki. But in general you can add multiple movies to a boxset. I can't say really more to it as I never have used them. For me I only have added the "pure info" which movies belong to the selected one - no matter if as prequel, sequel or whatever... One single command would fulfill everything we need: GETDATA "tablename", "fieldname". With that every user would be able to add all the info he really wants to use. And with the additional parameter "databasename" all XMM-progs would be compatible.
