hi, i'm using the new eden beta on my atv2 and i'm streaming videos from my ftp-server. everthing works fine, but the xbmc ftp client is showing the hidden folders from windows (recycler etc.).

is it possible to configure the xbmc ftp client to "hide" the hidden folders?

thanks

there is a setting in xbmc somewhere (video -> filelists or so?) ... not sure if our ftp client supports it but worth a try...

thanks, there is an option under appearance -- file lists -- show hidden files... , but that's not checked. and setting this option doesn't change anything. any other ideas?

What ftpd is it you're running? Shouldn't the server handle the hidden/system dirs?

I'm using a filezilla server on Windows 7. Every Google hint/link tells me, that i have to configure that behavior in my client setup and the filezilla server doesn't have a config option for handling the hidden files/folders.

I'll try to reproduce and add the hidden handling to our ftp directory if it's possible without much hassle.

FYI, it's not possible. At least it is not with our FTP implementation and i still think its FileZilla's fault. Sorry.
