"Auto Populate" disappeared - antoniong - 2014-05-04 I am testing Gotham RC1 + Quartz on a iMac using OSX and Mac Mini using OpenElec. On both systems Ithe Auto Populate was functioning. Suddenly it disappeared (the movies in the topbar were gone). So I checked Skin settings ->Home media shelf customizer and all I see there is Custom image & custom media shortcuts and no long auto populate. I thought this might be caused by the action that I had only Favorites in the column but if I put Browse back they media shelf is still nog filled and cannot be activated. How do I restore the Auto Populate function?

RE: "Auto Populate" disappeared - antoniong - 2014-05-04 I did a scan but neither the top row reappeared nor the 'auto populate' in shelf customizer. "Auto Populate" disappeared - pecinko - 2014-05-04 Hmm and what have you done prior to shelf disappearing ? RE: "Auto Populate" disappeared - antoniong - 2014-05-04 If I knew that then I would have the solution. I was in the process of making XBMC foolproof for the family and removing stuff in the GUI (using XBMC settings, no handmade changes) that they should not touch. Apparently I removed/changed a setting but I checked setting a myriad times but cannot find it. RE: "Auto Populate" disappeared - pecinko - 2014-05-04 Reset XBMC settings to defaults and troubleshoot by changing 1 setting at a time? Enabled profiles? Restricted user access to some of the sections? RE: "Auto Populate" disappeared - antoniong - 2014-05-04 No matter what I reset/set it is not coming back. So I decided to delete the whole XBMC folder and start from scratch. Thanks for the help, love the skin. RE: "Auto Populate" disappeared - antoniong - 2014-05-04 This is really frustrating. I setup a brandnew XBMC (Gotham, RC). Made it to my satisfaction meaning that in the column Movies I have set such that all you see is what I have set as 'Favorites' All looked perfect, system was fetching Fan Art. Then all suddenly there was a system crash. So I rebooted and started XBMC. Now a lot is wrong: - I have set the system to update the library at startup. It does no update. - the top shelf (with posters) is gone. Now I see the logo of XBMC. - it appears that all the fan art is gone! - when (in the column XBMC) I press "Update Library" I see for milliseconds a window "Library compressing" and no update/scan of the library. Just now XBMC crashed again. Whay should I do to solve this? Add. info: I changed the column such that 'Browse' was again visible and checked "assign contents" and I saw that TheMovieDB was no longer assigned. So I assigned it, etcetera, etcetera. But when I checked again it was gone. So next I browsed for a compile new folder, assigned it a.s.o. but the assignment to the TheMovieDB disappeared again. So?
