Hi
You can use the categories.xml file to enable / disable or rename categories
See the wiki http://code.google.com/p/moviejukebox/wiki/Categories

Hi Andy,

thanks for the reply.
Made categories.xml in the base directory of my YAMJ installation
but it didn't work.
Any tip?

Hi Andy,

found the problem:
in the properties file categories-default was requested as filename.
Thanks

Hi Andy,

I have to come back once more to that issue.
I used also the genre filter to combine subgenres.
It works on the "All" page (I'm talking about viewing on PC) but as soon as
I select i.e. a character all categories as well as all subgenres are shown again.

What to do?

Hi

Have you configured the genres.xml file as per the wiki http://code.google.com/p/moviejukebox/wiki/Genres and saved it in ITF-8 format?
In the moviejukebox.properties file have you enabled it by setting the following: -
mjb.filter.genres=true
mjb.xmlGenreFile=genres.xml

Andy

Hi Andy,

yes, I did that.
As I wrote, on the start page if I select "All" the filtering of categories and genres works.
Selecting a character, i.e. "T" as there are almost all genres as well as categories inside,
there is no more filtering. Categories which I have disabled as well as all subgenres are
shown.
Clueless
Nice sunday

If you have changed the genres or categories files, you will need to re-index everything again.

Add the line "mjb.forceIndexOverwrite=true" to the moviejukebox,properties file and then re-run YAMJ
That should fix the problem (remember to set the line to "false" when you are done.)

Later versions of YAMJ will do this for you, but I don't think v2.4 does it
