On the music library view I sort by Artists. When I click on an Artist I get the various album thumbs plus an 'All Albums' thumb.

Can I get rid of the 'All Albums' thumb?

I know this is an OLD thread, but I am wondering the same thing. I have tried using advancedsettings, but nothing is changing. I tried both of the following settings:

<musiclibrary>
<hideallitems>true</hideallitems> <!-- removes the "*All" items from the music library -->
<allitemsonbottom>true</allitemsonbottom> <!-- sorts the "*All" items at the bottom of the list when in Ascending order -->

Neither seem to change anything. Every time I open an artist, it defaults to "All Albums" which has no fan art or album art. Not the best user experience. Any way to change this?

• Did you place the advancedsettings.xml file in your userdata directory?
  
• Did you include the <advancedsettings> and </advancedsettings> tags in your advancedsettings.xml file? (Not shown in your example above)
  
• Did you include the </musiclibrary> tag in your advancedsettings.xml file? (Not shown in your example above)
  

Your advancedsettings.xml file should look like this if <hideallitems> is the only override entry you are using:

Code:

<advancedsettings>
  <musiclibrary>
    <hideallitems>true</hideallitems>
  </musiclibrary>
</advancedsettings>

Yes, in my userdata folder. And here is the full text from my file (I was trying both settings, but I did first try only the hide items tag):

Code:

<advancedsettings>
  <musiclibrary>
    <hideallitems>true</hideallitems>
    <allitemsonbottom>true</allitemsonbottom>
  </musiclibrary>
</advancedsettings>

Check Debug Log if it gets loaded

Thanks. There was an error:

Code:

ERROR: Error loading special://profile/advancedsettings.xml, no <advancedsettings> node

[romwarrior]

OK, it must have been a format error as I recreated the xml file using a different text editor and now I have no error and the "All Items" icon is indeed hidden. Thanks.

It is actually a formating error! I really want to kill myself! I have wasted so many hours because of this trivial error!
