Make a new menu (Custom item), with 2 favourites? - rasmuskarlsen - 2011-10-25 00:06

Hey..!

I have posted some threads here about this subject, but now i have learned that it's possible to add custom items (New menus in the home menu). I'm trying to make a menu in XBMC -which is close to what i can find in Mediaportal. It can be illustreated by the following screen:

So when i select "Movies" from the home menu, then i can choose between "All movies" (Title), "Genres", and maybe others... (Customized either in the GUI, or by changing the XML files).

How can i make such a menu?

Until now i have "hacked" the skin, to show de favourites menu, as "Movies" in the home menu.. But i'm not happy with this solution, because it still says "favourites" in the top left corner..

Thanks for your reply.

Beautiful Smile It's working just like it should!

Do you know which file contains the Genre, Title, Year, Actor etc links? I wan't to re-arrange them, so Title is the first slection on the list.

You can't change the order as that's handled by XBMC and not the skin.
