Filter Actors/Persons

[WisdomCode]

The emby webinterface as well as the android client provide a the possibility to show movies/tvshows of a certain actor. Choosing a certain kind of media gives then the possibility to further filter the results.
The latter (further filtering with an actor chosen) is not possible in this version of emby theater. I cannot say whether the same issue exists for the windows version (have no testing system here).
I assume it has just been overlooked, as further filtering is in general implemented and working just as in the webinterface. Also, choosing media of just an actor is possible. Nevertheless, it would be nice to have both combined in emby theater electron as well.

Hi, sorry i'm having a hard time visualizing what you're saying the web app has that Theater does not have. Can you show a screenshot to demonstrate? Thanks.

Describing it is difficult, sorry, I will give you a few screenshots. They are german, I hope you don't mind.
First, when I talk about filtering, I mean this Button:

Containing options similar to this:

It exists in Theater as well as web and Android.
Also, there is the possibility to view Videos only from a certain actor (or person), which looks similar to this (taken on Theater):

Mind the red marked area. This area, under Android and in the Web View, contains a button called 'More':

I actually realized right now when making the images, that this only happens when a certain amount of Movies exist from this actor (more than is displayed).
When this button is clicked, you get a full list of the videos, together with a header that includes further options, together with the previously mentioned "Filter":

I miss these options when choosing a person to further narrow down my search.
