(*) You can control how many items and what the separator between each item will be by opening the template.xml file in a text editor (Notepad) and locate the following row:<Actors Separator=", " MaximumValues="5" /><Genres Separator=", " MaximumValues="5" /><Directors Separator=", " MaximumValues="5" /><Countries Separator=", " MaximumValues="5" /><Studios Separator=", " MaximumValues="5" /><SubtitlesSeparator=”,” MaximumValues=”5”/>

Separator specifies which separator you want to use and MaximumValues specifies the maximum number of items you want to show.

To every text variable you can append different casing conversions:

{UPPER} - Makes the whole text in upper case (eg. %TITLE%{UPPER} will make the whole title uppercase)

{LOWER} - Makes the whole text in lower case (eg. %TITLE%{LOWER} will make the whole title lowercase)

{TITLECASE} - Makes the whole text in title casing format (eg. %TITLE%{TITLECASE} a title of "The whole nine yards" becomes "The Whole Nine Yards")
