Question Set automaticly the Folder-Views

is it possible to set different views in myFilms and myMusic ?
now i have this structure:

d:\\music\abba\folder.jpg (level 2, Picture of Group Abba)
d:\\music\abba\album\folder.jpg (level 3, Picture of Album Abba)
d:\\music\abba\album\song1.mp3
d:\\music\abba\album\song2.mp3
d:\\music\abba\album\song3.mp3
d:\\music\abba\album\song4.mp3
d:\\music\abba\album\song5.mp3

d:\\music\zappa\folder.jpg (level 2, Picture of Artist zappa)
d:\\music\zappa\album\folder.jpg (level 3, Picture of Album zappa)
d:\\music\zappa\album\song1.mp3
d:\\music\zappa\album\song2.mp3
d:\\music\zappa\album\song3.mp3
d:\\music\zappa\album\song4.mp3
d:\\music\zappa\album\song5.mp3

i want, that MP knows that all folder.jpg in level 2 are view with small icons, and all pictures in level 3 are views with Covers.

is it possible (not manuell) ?

perhaps with a small plugin, that look in the folders and if there a file e.g.

d:\\music\view_small_icon.txt (all groups and artist are displaye with small icons) and
d:\\music\abba\view_covers.txt (all albums are display with covers)

i have more than 500 albums and video-files. to do that manuell is a very long work.

I'm pretty sure that you can do what you want in Configuration. You can set each sorting type to have a specific view. I've attached a screenshot that shows starting with Artist you can have small icons set and then when you click on a specific artist you can set the field I circled to big icons or filmstrip. I think that's what you meant?
