XBMC Or XBMB3C functionality

[saitoh183 137]

I was setting up Xperience 1080++ and noticed that when chosing  layouts  that we have to chose it for each show at season level and each season at episode level. Is there a way to apply the same view to the for all shows at season and episode level. Having to set 180+ shows is going to be very long? Also is this because Gotham works this way now or is this due to using the plugin?

Combination of things.  We don't have a very nice solution to this - but there is a work-around.

I don't know Xperience1080 well, but I think the file to modify is 1080i/Includes_Mod.xml:

        <include name="ViewsTVMovieControl">
                <views>56,53,50,57,502,503,504,505,506,507,508,509,510,511,513,60,600,552,652,566,577,582</views>
        </include>
        <include name="ViewsEpisodesControl">
                <views>60,53,56,57,502,503,504,505,506,507,508,509,510,511,513,50,600,552,652,566,577,582</views>
        </include>
        <include name="ViewsControl">
                <views>56,53,50,57,502,503,504,505,506,507,508,509,510,511,513,60,600,552,652,566,577,582</views>
        </include>

The first number is the default view.  @@im85288 - can you confirm that is the right place?

 

We are discussing a better solution...

Yes @@xnappo good spot, the default view types are listed in that xml file.

thank you both

I don't know if it is possible for you guys to fold into this client/plug-in but the server is designed to store and retrieve display preferences for all folder types and it already takes care of this "like folder" type functionality.

 

If you used the API to store and retrieve your display prefs, you would get this for free.

Thanks Eric - but that isn't really the problem.  The issue is that there isn't a mechanism in the skinning language to pass information to Python.  It was designed to work with the XBMC database which we are bypassing.

 

Will keep it in mind though - that might be useful if we do figure out how to get that communication path in place.
