Hi there.

I'm not actually sure if I have a problem or not; it may be a display issue.

I've been using Media Browser for some time on my PC. I've now purchased an AppleTV 2, Jailbroken and successfully installed XBMC.

I've got the media showing, and am able to play. But I'm confused by the file structure or display... or operation...

When I select:

Video > Library > Movies > Title

It shows me a version of coverflow (which I'll have to deal with next). However, when I select any of the films, it just starts playing them. I expected it to take me to an information screen with a summary, actors, etc. before electing to play it.

Is there a way to modify the operation to behave like that? Am I just not seeing something?

Also, is there any way to have it get the meta information from the xml files and posts which I have collected over the years?

You can change the default action on selection from 'play' to 'show information' in settings.

Settings -> video settings -> File Lists -> default select action

You can also hold the select button down on the atv remote to bring up the info
