Any way to get more list lines in the movie list? I have Over 1500+ movies and prefer more per screen when paging.

Thank You!

Thank you, I'm going to give this a shot now and I'll report back.

EDIT: These (at first glance) look to not be for Moving Pictures List, but I have a general idea of what files to start hacking now.

OK, If you are interested, here's a modified xml file to give you more lines per viewing page from the Moving Pictures Movie List.

Took me from 8 to 11 lines in the listview for my Moving Pictures movie list. This cut my pages down *considerably* (about 180 pages down to 109).

My setup, as I do not know how well this will work if you are not using the 1920x1080 mode in StreamedMP, is for a 1080 display.

I don't want to learn all about skin structure but if anyone knows an easy way to shrink the gap between the movies in the list, please let me know (<cough skin authors!>). I think that may be able to push to about 15+ movies on a single page.

Code below, I did not need to clear skin cache or anything. Backup your old file before replacing. You must restart MediaPortal to see the change. This *only* effects the Moving Pictures Movie List View.
