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.

    @CyberSimian Sorry, I missed your last post. I ended up doing a clean install on the client and all is well now. It still doesn't let me go back in time when I change channels but it does continue operating from that point on. I'm ok with that. Thanks for your help! EDIT: I now downgraded the server (as I did with the client above)...

In past versions of MP, like 2.4x, I could press the More Info button on my remote twice, and on the second press, an option for showing/choosing the subtitles was listed. I'd select the...
