How do I get the ByFolder-Navigation as simple as possible?
Posted: Thu Feb 10, 2011 12:02 am
Hello!
I *always* use the ByFolder-navigation on my devices (Samsung TV, Samsung BluRay, Freecom MusicPal, several PCs).
So it nags me that I always have to enter one unneccessary nav-tree-level.
Let me explain (using "Audio" as example - same goes for Pictures and Videos, of course):
Step 1: normal ByFolder-NavTree
Audio
+-All Tracks
| <whatever...>
|
+-ByFolder
. +-Albums
. +-Audio Books
. +-Single Tracks
. +-etc.
But I *never* use the "All"-branch
Step 2: Editing the folder.view.xml I stripped away the unused "All tracks"-branch
Audio
+-ByFolder
. +-Albums
. +-Audio Books
. +-Single Tracks
. +-etc.
But now there is a hierarchy-level that´s completely superfluous (and annoying!) because it has only one entry
Step 3: promote the branches within the ByFolder-navigation to the main level
Audio
+-Albums
+-Audio Books
+-Single Tracks
+-etc.
Yet I seem to be unable to achieve Step 3
=> How can I get a NavTree looking like shown in step 3?
Is there a good manual for the NavTree-XML anywhere?
Thank you in advance!
