How to make folder view default globally?

[dovedescent7 3]

The advanced graphic i worked very hard on says it all...

 

Could someone please show me how to achieve making the folder view the first option here globally, or at least by device?

Tabs are not moveable.  Only option you have is a per user setting to make that tab the landing page.  User preferences-Home Screen and scroll down to the library and set the default screen.

 

Other option is making "Mixed Content" library instead of Movie library, as Mixed Content libraries are only Folder View.

Thanks Happy,

 

Could you point me to the location of this setting for Android TV? I don't see "User preferences-Home Screen" on the Android TV version.

I honestly don't know anything about the Andriod TV, or if it honors the users preferences set in the server web client.  I know most settings on the server carryover to the clients but not all.  So you may need to post in the client/app forum or wait for someone else to come along and follow up on the question.

The Android TV app will respect the setting, so just set it in the web app. Thanks.

Has the landing page option been removed? Can't seem to locate this anywhere.

Which server version? And where are you looking for it?

[flcruising 0]

v4.6.7.0

In the meantime I found that 7 (out of 11) libraries were changed to "Mixed content". How did this happen? Recreating them now.

Mixed-content libraries have no option, Folders are default landing page.

As for library type change upon upgrade, it has been reported in certain scenarios that it lead to type-change, no need to recreate them, just follow below:
