Not all sections of Kodi have the Thumbs Info View. But if go to the top options menubar and select Thumbs Info View in the sections you like, the setting stays like this.
I kinda figured that it was an unsupported add-on forcing things upon the skin. Not much I can do about that.
Changing the defaultcontrol in MyVideoNav.xml from "500" to any other will not work, as id="500" is the container holding the specific views.
Try changing the views across the skin to Thumbs Info View and exit Kodi.
Replace the contents of MyVideoNav.xml to this:
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<window id="25">
<defaultcontrol always="true">500</defaultcontrol>
<allowoverlay>yes</allowoverlay>

I haven't tested this, but it should work if you do it in the order specified above. Maybe it will break some things across the skin though, but it's worth a try. Only tv shows and movies library is changed with this as Thumbs Info View do not exist for the other video sections.
