Heres a couple request settings for "Library Mode" I know alot of people would like this option.

Req 1: skip past title, genre, year screen and go directly into title mode (have this as an option in settings, or perhaps add a "library mode settings")

Req 2: when you first click Library mode, option to add icons to those folders.

Theres a lot of people in xbox-scene who I know would like these features added also.

This can already be done with a skin tweak -
open the home.xml file and change the "My Videos normal push button" to
xbmc.activatewindow(myvideolibrary,movietitles)" in the <onclick> expression.

Or...if you use a remote, modify the Keymap.xml to allow a button to take you straight there using the above expression. See this page in the wiki for set-up commands - http://www.xboxmediacenter.com/wiki/inde...nd_Dialogs

Hope this helps

can be done even easier... just bring up the context menu on 'Title' and make default (im 90% sure it works) not tried it though.

Be nice if the 'Add Smart Playlist' and 'Add Playlist" became buttons instead of folders.

If that's not possible, would be nice if we could add Button Art as they appear as blanks in the various list views.
