Change Default Select Action in My Videos

fasteddy · 2009-01-12, 20:46

Hi there,

Currently, my movies are each in separate folders. I use CoverFlow to scan through them. When I hit <select> on a given title, it takes me into that folder showing the available video file(s). However, I'd rather that the default action from hitting <select> bring up the movie information screen directly, instead of going into the folder, in order to avoid constantly navigating the context menu.

I've searched the forums, but couldn't find an answer to this (though I'm sure someone will have a tersely worded response accompanying a link to exactly this). Can someone help?

Thanks,

fasteddy

Alter the source. See GUIWindowVideoFiles.cpp.

Or just use library view.

Yeah, in library view you could change the keymap.xml under the video section (or global if you want)?

Thanks, I'll give that a shot once I figure out how to fix my borked video drivers.
