HOW-TO:Remove ratings in Confluence

This tutorial will show how to remove ratings from the library views List/Big List/Media Info/Media Info 2 and from TV/Movie information. This is achieved by editing ViewsFileMode.xml, ViewsVideoLibrary.xml MyVideoNav.xml and DialogVideoInfo.xml.

Remove ratings from libray views

This is the quickest way, but doing it this way will not just remove ratings. It will also remove episode count, play count, MPAA rating and date from the library view you've edited (when selecting the corresponding sorting).

List

A. Open the file ViewsFileMode.xml. The file starts with <include name="CommonRootView">, which is the include for the List view.
B. Find the following code and comment it out. The exact same code is in places in the CommonRootView include. The first one shows name/ratings/date in grey when the selection isn't on it, while the second one is for showing name/ratings/date in white when the selection is on it.

<control type="label">
