Okay, at least it's known. Is it on purpose? And can we put it back the other way?

It was removed (intentionally) in r14587. I'm not sure if there was a reason other than it wasn't wanted.
I shall attempt to find out.
Cheers,
Jonathan

Sinister, you said it better then I did.
Anyone know if there is a way to get the feature back?

Kraqh3d,
If it is only file mode, the group option shoud not be there also. But I know for sure, most people are very happy with it.
Can you put the "Ignore The" option back in maybe all file views (Videos, Music and maybe also Pictures), or a way to do this through an advanced setting in a xml file?
If you would consider it I would be very very very grateful.

Hi!
I cannot get the feature "Ignore tokens when sorting" to work in the Atlantis betas. I have tried Beta1 on Xbox and Beta2 in Windows with the same result. (Ie. "The Simpsons" will sort below "Something about Mary")
The token I want to exclude from my movielists is "The". I've made sure the <sorttokens> info is present in Advancedsettings.xml and langinfo.xml.
This feature worked fine in older XBMC-versions on my xbox.
Am I missing something here?

Ok, at least I seem to be able to export music/video libraries now, that's cool! Allright, I'll give library mode a serious run, but would still like to see token ignore functionality in folder views.

for the record, I would like tho see this option back under file view as well. Many people use this and I would think it is not a lot of effort to put it back. correct me if I am out of line or wrong. Personally, I never liked library mode, but with the ability to flatten my movies directory and the xbmc media companion to hand tweak .nfo files, I am giving it another try. It is superior but I always had issues with the scraper (incorrect movies, movies not found etc). with the .nfo files, I can control a lot of that. It is more work but worth it in my opinion.

I hope this function is put back the old way. I used it and don't use library mode.
