Hi, I was messing round last night and noticed something slightly odd out navigating the normal skin.
When I press my remote's back button from deep within the folder structure of my library (video or music) it would go up one level - This is what I (as a dumb user) would expect to happen.
But when I press my remote's back button when I am in the 'root' of my TV show library it takes takes me back to the root of the video section. Now I understand why it does this (as my tv show library is 'below' my video section, so pressing backspace takes me to the parent directory), but it isn't what I (as a dumb user) would expect.
I would expect, that the back button from my TV show library (or Film Library) would take me back to the home screen.
So ideally I would want to be able to set backspace to parentdir when below the root and then once I am at the root of library I want it to open the home screen.
AFAIK you can only set the behaviour of a button based on which screen type you are in, and there is no way of setting a different action based on how far you are into the folder structure.
Is there a way to do this, or could it be added?
