[Q] How to set a personalized startup home screen - Relevart - 2011-09-23

Hi there,

I'm on Windows 7 x64, running Nightly XBMC Revision: 442f16c with the Neon (SVN) theme from XBMC Passion.

As I'm trying to get a full eyecandy mediacenter I've selected this theme. BUT.
I cant set my "movies" screen as default startup home screen.

I can only select "videos", "favourites", "weather", "Shutdown", "settings" and "home screen" in the settings->appearance menu
I've selected "HOME SCREEN"

And now when i launch XBMC the home window is "shutdown"

There's an XML file that i must edit?

I also have this issue.
Mine goes straight addons screen.
I would like that the TV Shows are selected by default.

It defaults to the third item on the home menu. In my case, I have Music, Videos, Movies, TV Shows, etc etc and it defaults to Movies.

This can be changed in the Includes_Home_Horizontal.xml file. I believe there is a post somewhere detailing the changes - I'll see if I can find it. Here: http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?p=805360&highlight=xml#post805360
