How does XSqueeze (main) look on Aeon Nox BTW? I only use Confluence because I test so many things it just keeps like simpler..but also because my ION machines aren't that quick with the heavy skins. I am building a silent A6-3500 machine I think, that should be a lot faster...
Ok, I am confused by your bug though - no idea initially, it works fine with Confluence in the April nightly here (windows), so I think maybe you're remote is sending different codes or something. The Chooser bit, being a standard plugin, does not actually have any remote code handling in it - it just does the default behaviour - so 'back' (= ACTION_NAV_BACK) should go up a level (unless you are at the root, in which case it is 'exit' - and 'exit' (= ACTION_PREVIOUS_MENU) - should exit the plugin and fall back to whatever is underneath - i.e. XSqueeze. Can you try the back button instead?...
It also works on Openelec (linux) for me. Have you done any remote hacking maybe? Have I??
- I don't think anything I have done will do this, and mine is the expected behaviour. Really weird it works in Aeon for you
You ARE obviously starting the chooser from within XSqueeze right - technically it will start on it's own by clicking the program link, but it's definitely designed only to start from within XSqueeze, and thus fall back to XSqueeze when it exits. Given plugins don't expose the actions, I am not sure I can put any debugging in to work it out. Hopefully some other testers will chime in to give me a clue as to whether it's a general issue or not.
Re: your request - this is more of a skin thing and I don't think plugins can set the views or even provide suggestions - I will look inot it though. I think views are inherited if you haven't visited a folder previously (so those you went into when it was a list will be list, but if you now change say the albums view to thumbnails, and sub folder you have not yet visited should show in thumbnails too).
Also - I wouldn't mind adding art for artists to make that a lot more visually interesting - would need some really easy/fast way of doing this, as with say 400+ artists if the code to get the artist image URL is slow, that will be a problem. Hopefully someone has a cool API somewhere you can very simply call with an artist name and get back an image URL, but even that would be slow. I don't think LMS does anything with images for artists unfortunately, as that would easily be the quickest method...
