I've just chosen to use it as a SWMBO sorting tool. That's worked well for me thus far. What is the difference between a movie and a video?The videos section displays any video(movie, tv, etc) but in "files mode". It gives you access to the video sources, content type, playlists, tags, etc.
Going directly to movies bypasses all of that and ONLY displays any file that was scanning into XBMC as a movie. TV Shows do the same, but only for tv shows
The default skin allows you to hide the videos entry because once you setup your sources, you very likely won't need to access it any more. Aeon Nox, since it allows you to hide anything you wish, also does this.
