Wont stay on cover flow (1 Viewer)

[dribbler1]

Hi,

Just wondering if I can get some help with this.

I am very new to mediaportal... in fact I ony just installed it yesterday. I have installed the Avalon skin along with world weather, moving pictures, online videos... Maybe some more.

Anyway my problem is that it suddenly stopped remembering my last view... In moving pictures I change to cover flow then exit but every time I go back its back on list... In moving pictures config I have it set to last view used so im not sure why its not using the last used.

I also noticed that if I turn off RSS feeds in settings that is also ignored... RSS feeds still show.

Cheers.

Hello and welcome to MediaPortal! =)

Anyway my problem is that it suddenly stopped remembering my last view... In moving pictures I change to cover flow then exit but every time I go back its back on list... In moving pictures config I have it set to last view used so im not sure why its not using the last used.

Please go to MovPic Config -> Tab GUI Settings -> Button "Define Movie Categories"
There you can also choose default views for different categories. (normally it is List View as far as I remember)

I also noticed that if I turn off RSS feeds in settings that is also ignored... RSS feeds still show.

RSS Feeds are defined within the InfoService plugin. If you want to disable them you have to go to the InfoService plugin config and untick "Feed Ticker enabled"

Thanks! =)

Thank you so much Holzi!

Everything works perfect now. I actually decided to keep rss feeds enabled after learning how to add feeds and edit etc thanks to your help, so very much appreciated... I added several Sky News Australia feeds... Top stories, business, sport etc.

I cant believe how powerful Mediaportal is.... I think you can now put me into the category of ex WDTV owner

Cheers and thanks again.
