Hi Sharpe,
Hope all's well with you.
Been away from much active XBMC use for a little while...recently came back and upgraded everything to the latest versions (Eden final, latest Back Row SVN from repo etc.)
While, as always, loads of cool improvements have come into the skin, I was a little sad to see the loss of a feature that was quite vital to my set-up: the availability of al the lovely custom library views in file mode.
I have a fair amount of content that I don't import into the video library for various reasons (sports, documentaries, magic etc.) I used to have these all organised in folders by type, with a folder.jpg and fanart.jpg in each one....That way, while obviously not a slick as full on library mode, i could still browse all that content with all the attractiveness of the different views (dvd case view, wall etc)
Unless I'm doing something silly it is now impossible to use most of these views in file mode. (Only the 3 list views are available). Is there any way to have the other views available again in file mode? I totally agree with using library mode whenever practical, but there is a lot of content which for me is just not worth making library ready, but is still much better browsed with all the great views BackRow has to offer...
Cheers - coming back to XBMC again after a while away and poking around a few skins and BackRow still stunds out as by far the slickest to me
