Description
I'm getting this error when viewing the Folders for our movies. I have done some investigation into this issue but don't feel comfortable to issue a pull request for the fix required.
The line I believe in question is on line 21 of android-xbmcremote / res / layout / titlebar.xml.
Here is the link of the fix that I believe would fix the issue I'm having.
