views: creating a filter without displaying it (1 Viewer)

Hi,

I have music files with genres, for example "classic". Now I want to have a view showing me only albums from genre "classic".
I created a view with first row "genre = classic" and some more rows (album then tracks) and it correctly shows only tracks having the genre "classic".

But in Mediaportal it displays as follows:
- first there is a single element "classic"
- only after I opened that element, I see the album view.

I want to get rid of that first element, I want to have the view showing directly the albums for all tracks having "classic" in the genre tag.

Any hints?

    I have a similar problem:
    My music collection contains a large number of classical tracks. Many of these have "title" tags, like "Adagio" which only make sense in the context of the album. I would therefore like to filter them out of the "songs" display, but every filter I add (e.g. "not like adagio%") adds an unnecessary level to the navigation. How can I add a filter which doesn't add a level in the display hierarchy?
