Movies and series libraries
VOD organization depends on the provider-side catalog and the player.
Movies and series are usually separated from live television in compatible players. Categories may be organized by language, genre, year or region. Large libraries can take longer to sync on older televisions or low-memory streaming devices.
Metadata such as posters, descriptions, cast information and episode lists depends on the player and provider-side data. A missing poster does not necessarily mean the VOD item itself is unavailable.
