[QUOTE="ajp8164, post: 340986, member: 64375"] [b]Display game description (v. title) in list view[/b] You can do this (successfully, now - if you use the attached plugin). The way to accomplish this is to make sure your game database (via the plugin Configuration tool) contains "pretty text" in the 'Title' field of the database. You can either hand edit this in the Configuration tool (ugh!) or you can use the Update database script that I found posted in this forum at [url]https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/my-emulators-247/updating-description-year-company-48884/#post332576[/url]. I have modified the script that was posted so that it populates the Title column and the Description column with the description text. I have attached the script (Update.bat.rar); you'll need to refer to the post for complete instructions. Again, no changes made to the plugin for this to work (except to correct a few bugs that prevented this from working). In light of this change, I have changed my StreamedMP skin xml to remove the bold description from the page in lieu of the description now being displayed in the list. Use attached file if interested. -Andy [/QUOTE]
