Views no longer per source but only per content type? #197

I'm on Kodi Nexus v20.2 and since your latest update v9.1.0 views can no longer be set per source. I have several sources defined in Kodi representing different subfolders for video clips and set the content type for all of them to movies with no scraper assigned. In the past, I could select different views for every source, i.e. List for Videos1 and Wall for Videos2. Since the last update, setting the view of one of these folders inherits it to all other folders of the same content type. If I set List for Videos1, Videos2 will also have List. Changing Videos2 to Wall results in Videos1 showing as Wall. Is this behavior intended?

That is the way the skin variable addon works. If it is not installed or enabled then the old way still functions like it used to.

I have script.skinvariables 0.2.5 installed and enabled. Could you please elaborate what you mean with old way? Shall I disable this addon?

You asked about "views no longer per source". That is what I mean by the old way. You could try to update Skin Variables using jurialmunkey's alpha repo and see if it gives more control but I don't know the differences between the two versions.

Old way = the whole point of your post

New way = use script.skinvariables add-on to force a viewtype

For future readers: I simply uninstalled the script.skinvariables addon to get my views back. No other action required.
