Or start a playlist, and if I do'n like a song remove it from the list or re-order and save the playlist again.That's because the playlist implementation in XBMC is a total mess, and the interface for external remotes is even worse.
None of all the remote apps have this, why ??
Quote from a different thread:
Quote:The current playlist implementation/representation in json rpc has many (design) flaws and there are lots of unsupported things and it will hopefully be completely rewritten for the next release (if there's enough time). Until then it might be the safest approach not to use the Playlist methods (except SkipPrevious, SkipNext, GetItems, Clear, Shuffle and UnShuffle which should work as expected).Count on it: I'll add any functionality as soon as it is available through XBMCs JSON interface.
We're sorry for the inconvenience and hope to provide a much better solution in the next version
Quote:But, Are there any way to use it as a "only Movie library" and take away/disable the play buttons and other pages that I don't want to use?Long story short: Not as easy as one might think. I'll give it some thought.
Quote:I had the default view style, clicked a tv show, then when the seasons were displayed changed the view style to list, and couldn't go back. I had to restart. No button on the top. I'll see if I can duplicate and take a screen shot.OK now this one has to wait till i'm back home next week
