Lostify, that amazing Mac app that provides a GUI interface that tames the howling maelstrom of power that is AtomicParsley, has gained the ability to add cast listings. This applies to movies or TV shows, but I guess it could also be applied to AAC audio for applications that would make sense, like radio shows (Lostify works with AAC–I’ve been using it for ages to tag copyright and full release date, among other things). The following types of cast are supported:
- Actor
- Director
- Codirector
- Producer
- Screenwriter.
You don’t have to specify all of these. Typically you will tag actors and director. Results look great. Here is what it looks like in iTunes:
And here it is on Apple TV:
Isn’t that a thing of beauty?
As far as I know, currently only iTunes and Apple TV are capable of displaying this information. I’m sure that Apple will think of more ways to use this in the future (iPod Touch?).
Go get this update and pay the man some money to show your amazement that it’s possible for mere mortals to wield this mighty power!
