Ronie,
Something I've noticed that stop working on the nightlies for me about a month or so ago is the 'restart xbmc' option from the shutdown menu. When selecting it now it does nothing. Wasn't sure if something in the xbmc code was changed in how one would restart xbmc. Ubuntu is my OS.

Not sure if this is a skin issue: - PatK - 2011-10-08 06:41

Keeping a total independent Pre-Edan, scanned in most of my media, after importing my complete list. I did have to re-establish the drive paths and refreshed anyway. I noted that I was locked out of some select (e.g. James Bond) nested folders... if the nested folder has a small video attached (Dharma needed it to get a cover in video mode) solution seems to be eliminate the small video, rename the folder slightly and then do a clean-up. The folder was not scraped, even if scan recursively was ticked, and had to be manually done.

e.g. Movies>Action>James Bond Collection>(Only cover link plays) and no longer opens the folder but plays a small documentary about the star.

I have quite a few sub folders in which I've placed multiple videos.. e.g. the making of the movie, second trailer, authors comments etc... but when I click on the folder, instead of the expected Dharma file mode behaviour of opening up the sub folder, it plays the main media file directly, with no option to play sub files.

So I take it, that everything must be in the library now... including these small support videos? Or did I miss something in settings?

use 'Videos' on the home menu to get to your video files.

can't be of any more help i'm afraid, it's all xbmc build-in stuff,
nothing skin related.

ronie,
I'm using the Dev version via TortoiseSVN with recent xbmc nightlie.
One thing I've noticed is that when using Weather Plus, there is no way to play video forecasts when using Transparency skin. It is available when using Confluence skin.

works for me.
use the 'video' button on the bottom-left of the radar map.

in case it doesn't work, please post a debug log on pastebin

i am using the official svn using tortoise and everything! i am so happy! got rid of the passion version.

Anyway real quick question: Everything works except one thing...when i add a *particular* source or as a favourite to the home menu as a custom menu item it doesnt work. It opens a non library video screen that I cannot navigate. The favourite when used on its own works fine as well as other favourites as custom home menu items just not this one. Can you help or do you know of it as an existing bug? Whats funny is that it worked perfectly on the passion one lol. oh dear.

I know I havent followed the correct procedure ie supplying a debug log etc etc but only if you know off the top of your head ronie why this has happened or if it has happened before...

it could be the same issue master345 was having,
if you could provide a debug log, i'll have a look at it.

Video button was not available, so I updated from SVN and now it is there and working on both my Win7 and XP machines. Thanks for your time. Transparency! rocks..... Nod

I'm not sure if this is an Eden problem or Transparency.

When adding a custom menu, I choose to select the favorite, but the list is empty. I've verified I do have favorites inside of the menu on the home screen, but no favorites are available in the custom menu options.

I'm running openelec pre-eden nightly with transparency pulled from svn. Anyone else seeing this?
