xnappo 1608 Posted May 26, 2014 Posted May 26, 2014 Work is underway to provide a mechanism to set default views as often requested. This requires both a skin and addon update. The Aeon Nox and XBMB3C Gits have this ready to try. Setting is accessed from the AddOn root menu. xnappo 1

xnappo 1608 Posted May 31, 2014 Author Posted May 31, 2014 I added more view types. I am marking this complete but please test more. @@im85288 @@elcabong - please add views.xml to your skins if you haven't already. xnappo 1

Does this fix the issue of having to set a view to each show on the season level.

The views are set automagically now, so that it mimics the native Kodi library experience
pünktchen 1350 Posted January 21, 2015 Posted January 21, 2015 But it is also available in Titan and really nice if you want different views for different collections with the same media type. You have to go to Videos or Music -> Addons -> Mediabrowser -> bottom of the list!

So, if I change one folder to be all "large poster", it will do this for all other folders? (I have fodlers for kids movies, tv shows, classics, foreign, et cetera) Once ... don't ask me how... I did get to see the screen noted above, but for the life of me, I have no idea how I got there and never was able to find my way back.
