I have my movies organized in folders a specific way by Genre I can easily find them in. However, this skin doesn't have the ability to view in non-library mode to view movies in my structure. I don't need the 15 Genre's that there are, and it's confusing when movies like Kangaroo Jack and Paul Blart Mall Cop are in the "Action" Genre.

Is there a way for me to view my movies without library mode?

You could create 3 menu items each with 5 of your genres as submenu smart playlists.. a bit fudgy I know but all that springs to mind at the minute.

I think the workaround is playlists. Didn't cross my mind, but they work just as well. I also seperated the childrens movies from the others, so that should work well.

Thanks.

A smart playlist won't help much with movies that are mis-tagged as action movies. This is being set by whatever you are scraping your movies with. To fix that you would need to manually change the genres.
