[settings.xml] - changed several spinners to lists

[phil65]

like discussed some weeks ago, this changes several spinners to lists in settings.
Basically I left out:

• spinners dealing with numbers and fixed step size
• some settings which caused a delay until DialogSelect appears

@Montellese for review.

I don't really have a strong opinion on this. The changes are trivial.
There are a few settings which basically represent a tri-state (e.g. videolibrary.flattentvshows) which might work as a spinner as well. But like I said I'm not very good with UI/UX so I leave it to the people who know better.

yeah it ´s more about an opinion than a review, that´s correct.
I will pick @ronie, @BigNoid, @da-anda as UI people then. :)
I would prefer a list instead of a spinner also for 3-state-buttons.

+1, this is an improvement on usability. Are videoplayer.stereoscopicplaybackmode and videoscreen.screen too slow to convert to spinners or did you miss those?

[ronie]

+1 for the exact same reason as @BigNoid
this drastically improves usability.

[phil65]

@BigNoid : yes, I think both were too slow. Perhaps you can try out if it is the same on your machine.

[da-anda]

will check/review once I'm fully recovered from vacation - but in general +1 on anything that improves UX

Any plans merging this? The spinners are so annoying..
