This may have been discussed before, but the nature of the task makes for a difficult search.
In theater view, I use the keyboard to jump to movies by typing in the first few letters. Since many movie titles start with "The", I can't jump any closer to these than the first movie beginning with "The". Then I scroll from there. High class problem, I know.
Whether it is by renaming the titles or some other means, how would I go about getting my movies to appear (minimally in theater view) as "Movie Title, The"?
Thanks

You can do this, but you'll may lose the ability to display series or season artwork.
The movie (or series name) is generated in Tools > Options > Theater View and under Items to Show, there is Video > Movies > Name. If you select that, you'll see Name on the right. Click Edit, and you'll find the expression being used is:
TVInfo(SeriesDisplay)
This generates the movie name or if series is set, the series name.
You can replace this name to remove the article The (and possible others) by using:
If(Regex(TVInfo(SeriesDisplay), /#^(The) (.*)$#/), [R2]/, [R1], TVInfo(SeriesDisplay))
But just the use of an expression here instead of TVInfo(SeriesDisplay) will lose the ability to display series artwork (since this artwork lookup only works when either [Series] as a library field or TVInfo(SeriesDisplay) as the expression is used).

That works of course, too!

That's what I do.

Beautiful! That did it.
