Easier than a whole string of checks.

Thanks.

Wasn't looking into it yet, but I remember Arcanthur in Fussion was using IsFolder check to determine if item is set - do we need additional infobool just for sets? If it will be needed I'll add it, just checking if this isn't redundant.

IsFolder works fine in the movie-library, but when browsing movie-files
every listitem is treated as a folder.

as Hitcher mentioned, we need to add another set of conditions to compensate for that.

i currently need to use:
<visible>ListItem.IsFolder + !stringcompare(ListItem.Label,..) + SubString(Container.Folderpath,videodb://,left)</visible>

so yes, IsSet would simplify things a lot.

Plus speed things up I'm guessing.

And while I'm at it - anyone else think ListItem.IsBack (ie the parent folder button) would be useful because again we currently use a StringCompare which is slower?

Cheers.

+1 for this, I am modding Fusion and a lot of other things is showing up as sets if I don't add all that other crap. ListItem.IsSet would simplify things alot ;D

+1 on both suggestions, would clean up quite a lot of hackery stuff.

I think this will quickly get out of control - we need better approach than adding zillions of ListItem.Is*** infobools

**BigNoid** · 2011-09-27, 18:53

For sets it would be logical if there was a container.content(sets) as it's a separate entry in the library.

That would probably not work when container.content(movies) is already active.

**Hitcher** · 2011-09-27, 18:57

Container.Content(sets) is something JM was working on but is no use when in movie titles.

How about a property? So we could check with !IsEmpty(ListItem.Property(IsBack)), !IsEmpty(ListItem.Property(IsSet)) etc... but I don't know if this would be any better. Smile

And I want to add another thing that i have to apply hacks to get it to work...with linked movies to tv shows. It's a real pain to get the proper layout for movies inside the container.content(seasons) and container.content(episodes).
