Are you sure of this? I just started an updated frontend for the first
time, did not do anything with it and the database now has this for
settings on that host:
mythvideo.db_group_view = 1
mythvideo.db_group_type = 5
As with my first frontend, mythvideo was in the new browse mode and
organized by cast. I assume group_view should have defaulted to 0?
What does this line in videodlg.cpp do?> m_isGroupList =
gContext->GetNumSetting("mythvideo.db_group_view", 1);
This is the code in > http://cvs.mythtv.org/trac/changeset/21238
Without looking up GetNumSetting, it would appear that browse mode is
enabled by default if the value does not exist. I exited the frontend,
removed the above two settings from the db (after disabling browse mode
and having group_view=0) and started the front end. Once again, it
reset to browse by cast.
I saw your recent commit 21300 "Make sure users randomly paging through
settings pages don't inadvertently set non-default value for metadata
browse." and thought you might have believed I was randomly going
through settings. I did not even look at the settings until I saw that
commit message so I could see what settings might be affecting this.
