Hello,

I have a collection of nearly 8,000 Blu-rays & 4K movies.  Need to weed out movies that I will not likely ever watch again to make space for new ones.  Is there a way to sort or rank movies by ratings?  This would aid in choosing which movies to discard or at least a starting point.  I have trouble discarding any movie even when I know I'll never watch it again.  Thanks, H. Brooks

I'm pretty sure you want to sort by review, rather than rating (e.g. PG-13). Anyway both options are available:



Just right click the collection list header (see the red arrow) and select Sort By.

For more control you might want to take a look at ProfilerQuery. Among other things, you can get your profiles grouped by review (or pretty much anything you want).



It is a very versatile tool, if I may say so myself, but with versatility comes a little bit of a learning curve.
It's a curve well worth conquering!

Thank you GSyren for directions on how to sort by review and you are correct that I meant review not rating.  It appears that I don't have any reviews associated with my collection. I'm guessing that review info must be entered in manually for each movie or is there a way to have this info automatically downloaded from the net?

Review is meant to be how you grade the movie (after watching it), so no, I don't think there is s way to assign review from the net. Would you really want to weed out titles from your collection based on what others think of them?

Reviews would just be a starting point not the final decision.  As I said, I have trouble discarding movies - must be a collector's addiction.
