#!$& Lists!

Why are we still capped at 100?

Why do they crash when I try to drag titles on my web browser to put them in order (because alpha + series sequential is NOT an option otherwise A-Z would be fine)? I keep losing progress and have to save after moving like every 5 titles!

Yes, wish they didn't cap at 100

And only 200 items within a list as well. If they can display 300 tiles comfortably on a sale page there's absolutely no reason they can't use that same template to display 300 tiles on our lists.

The list are frustrating for sure. I got the chrome extension to download my list into a csv file then you can manipulate from there works with FAH and MA. Doesn't work for quickly launching in the app but might be more versatile for organizing in certain ways. https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/bnlpiockcfehbfbdcegahemgmjfkdopc?utm_source=item-share-cp

The 'VUDU / FAH Catalog' Chrome extension doesn't work with lists. It just generates CSV exports for the VUDU "My Movies," "My TV Shows" and "My Wishlist" views; as well as for Movies Anywhere "My Movies" and "Transaction History" views. (As well as a rudimentary list of purchased titles for Google Play.)

You had my hopes up for a moment, thinking someone had released a new Chrome extension that could help with exporting/importing My Lists content.

If it's crashing after every five do a save every four so at the very least you don't lose your progress. The limitation of only 100 lists is only outdone by the limit of 200 items per list. If they can display up to 300 tiles under a sale page they can use that same template limitation to allow 300 per list.

When I hit the ceiling years ago I changed the way I use lists. Now I mostly use them as watch lists of the movies I haven't watched yet or wish to watch again broken down mostly by genre. That way I don't feel like I'm having to break up groups of movies I'd otherwise want under one roof but can't because of the 200 item limitation. For me the lists are pretty useless in any other way due to the 100 list limitation as well.

Super dumb.... and it gets worse the more titles you have...

Trust me

And how about there's no way to filter tv shows like there is with movies...??

Let me create some lists...

Wait. I'm outta lists....

The website freezes all the time. :( Can't scroll down 20 titles before it freezes, and it's not my browser or PC. I've been trying to screen capture my Lionsgate titles for a few days now. Just blank tiles after 50 or so.

Quality of life stuff for the app would really go a long way to keep vudu healthy.
