Has "Videos go straight to files" been removed from the latest confluence skin or am i being blind?
I don't use library view, have always used videos and without this option, it's infuriating!

Do you have the following option enabled?
System/Settings > Skin > Home window options > "Videos" button always goes to video "Files"

Cheers, i hadn't seen that but i did read something else that lead me to home.xml for another reason.. I saw in there that the code is still in place to check if the option is enabled.. so i just changed both the true and false options to go straight to video.
thanks again

I am using Confluence/Frodo RC3 at the moment and also had to do this manually like above because the option is missing.
Also I hide the TV Shows option in the skin options, and then edit the sub menu file to remove items TV Shows and Library under Videos. I find this just keeps things simpler for my networked HTPC, I only want the show artwork, and general info about the show - not the show names etc.
My files are named correctly, most are even organised perfectly for the scrapers. But the small discrepancies in my perfectly fine collection annoy me too much, when a show only has 1 episode in TV Shows view, for example. Would be far too much work to fix it all, when I can just navigate it as a file system perfectly fine. Its a shame the system is so geared toward the scrapers.
