Finally registered just for this thread.
I must say after having been forced to upgrade to a newer build due to the need for DXVA de-interlacing I was flummoxed by this as well.
This change forces the following things:
1). Video no longer goes right to the configured list of video sources. Is there a way to fix this without edits to each skin each tiem a skin/xbmc update comes out?
2). Playlists option is always on and always visible under the video menu. Is there a way to hide these, again without edits to skins each time a skin/xbmc update comes out?
3). Skins that used to be able to display the full path to files in file mode now just display "Video - Library" which is USELESS when trying to talk an aggravated wife into how to navigate where she needs to be over the phone. Is there a way to get the old full path breadcrumb listing that was available in file mode back, again without edits to skins each time a skin/xbmc update comes out?
Can I just say I'd love a build with proper DXVA de-interlacing (should have been supported from the get-go as DXVA specifications required the hardware to have a minimum of 2 modes) that matches 10.1 functionality.
The wife acceptance fact and ease of support factor has dropped due to forced library modes.
Please don't get me wrong, I personally like XBMC. Just not a fan of these changes.
