Lets say I have three view types in video library - id 50,51,52.
50 is the container that shows only in root node, the rest are media views.
What I want to do is show different image in root (50) when coming from 51 than when coming from 52. Possible?

hehe, if i added a command like Container.GetPreviousViewMode then you can do summin like <visible>Substring(substring(Container.GetPreviousViewMode,Media View 1,left))<visible> or <visible>Substring(substring(Container.GetPreviousViewMode,Media View 2,left))<visible>
but i guess a command like Container.IsPreviousViewMode(x) would be better where you can do <visible>Container.IsPreviousViewMode(51)</visible> or <visible>Container.IsPreviousViewMode(52)</visible> thus you can hide various controls depending on which view mode you came from.

Thanks. The second one would do exactly what I am after here. In fact it would be great.

Even with blur that wouldn't work, as you don't (and neither does xbmc) have access to what was rendered at the previous content level. So at best you'd be faking it with some image that doesn't contain the actual content that the user was viewing, right?
EDIT: And I can't see where you need this from the video - the only blurring I see is when you bring up a dialog?

Seems like I've solved your problem then, right? Just use a dialog instead :p

Ah well..I wish you did. Guess I can say goodbye to this idea for now right?
