View by Genre

In another thread about view by year, where a fix was to add an xml file for it:

	</views>
</vfs>

I usually worked by genre. After updating all my plugins and Sage itself to the latest versions, I no longer see the view by genre. Is there a similar code for genre?

Thanks for any help!

I don't recall that the group by genre being removed... You can create the group by genre by modifying this view and change <group by="year"/> to <group by="genre"/>

I would try restarting your sagetv server, and check to see if you have an vfs errors.
