Title: Secondary rollers - nested
Post by: ldoodle on June 24, 2013, 08:21:55 am

Hey,

Is it possible to put a secondary roller 'inside' of something. Take the default Theater View config, specifically the Shows level. I would like 2 items beneath this to seperate TV shows with Event shows (live music/comedy events for example).

Thanks

Not that I'm aware of.

Thanks.

Can I put this forward as a feature request? I personally think secondary rollers on the front screen are much, much better than the top rollers for things like Genre, Actor etc. Puts every thing in one 'location' then.

Perhaps I am misunderstanding the request as I don't normally use Theater view, but isn't this what you want?

Not quite. As per your screenshot, the top level 'Video' is a secondary roller.

I want the Shows level to also be a secondary roller so that I have the 'lists' you show on the Media Center's Theater View front page, not once you are 'inside' a category level. But for now I have done what you show.

In that case, can't you just Unnest Shows?

No, because it will then be a root level item which I don't want.

Video > Shows > TV | Events is what I want.

I'm sorry, I don't understand what it is that you want then.

What I showed displayed:

Video > Shows > TEST | Series | Recent | Genre, with Series/Recent/Genre being there by default.

But you said that wasn't what you were looking for.
I don't normally use Theater view at all, so perhaps someone else can help.
