When I have movies set to sort by title the viewing mode defaults to list and when I go to change it I can't select the button. I'd like to be able to switch it to filmstrip.

    Hi there and welcome

    Try changing it in MP Configuration; Videos; Video Views;

    Select the TITLE view and set the VIEWAS column.

    Save

    Hi, thanks for the reply. I did some more playing around with the configuration and it seems that this is what was causing the problem. Some kind of bug. When it is set to filmstrip the button in Media Portal does not show up at all but if it's set to anything else, big icon, list etc the button shows up and I can change it to filmstrip. Even though I've decided with the number of movies I have now I will be keeping it in big icon view it's still an inconvenience and should be rectified.

    I'm not sure what the issue was, but I decided to try a different way of solving the problem. My server has a 2.5Gbps port and the 10Gbps card I added, so I've connected the HD Homerun directly to the 2.5G port, and its solved the problem, I can now copy large multiple files to the server and not suffer with picture issues. There is...

    Yes, unfortunately, this would need a code change to support it. Next time I'm doing something on the plugin I'll try and remember to add support for this sort order.

    What's the best way to select a different backdrop? Sometimes the first selected backdrop is not great and I'd like to select another. Moving Pictures scales down the high res pictures and shrinks the filesize as well so I can't just go to fanart or themoviedb and get the images without doing some extra work to get the file right...
