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?

make sure script.favourites is installed.

Setting up some nested sub-folders I've run into some cover issues in Video files mode.. the entry folder is gold and so are the sub folder/files.

Animations>ComicBook>Various Comic videos
gold gold

Animations>Pixar>Various Pixars Videos
gold gold

A quick refresh from file, brings in the .nfo and all looks good. But a subsequent visit and all the information is lost, and we're back to gold covers. The videos are in the library and a search brings them up, Once I enter the .nfo page, the covers look correct.. but on exit they return to gold unless I implement a refresh and pick up the info from the locally stored info.

I did a work around on some of the nested sub folders, and pulled them up a level... and that solved it. Perhaps I'm too deep or have missed a critical setting?

Using Pre-Eden 11.0 Git:20111015-7163d78 (Compiled Oct 16) Transparency! V4.0.3 (SVN)

does not look like a skin issue to me.
same issue with losing info in other skins?

No: I tried it in confluence without an issue... (of course it doesn't have cover boarders) you can enter the folder, see the info as listed by the .nfo etc... Looks like something in T! related to gold folder borders... at one point everything looks good.. back out to the home directory then update lib, re-enter and the .nfo and info is no longer visable. In coverflow you have the movie synopsis popping above the covers... after the above, all the covers turn gold and the info is lost. I tired it with other views... and they're gold frame too. If I go back to confluence the folders behave normally.

I'll try without Cover borders and see if that changes anything... No I just tried it, looks like the .nfo is not accessible to that folder depth. Doing a search for a particular file in movie mode brings it up... complete with all the data. I suspect that the entry folder lacking a video 'with nothing but folders beyond is shutting the door to the folders beyond', throw a small video file on the door, and the door to that folder doesn't open.. just plays the small video. Something inconstant with how this is working... I do have a 'James Bond' sub folder in action and all the files have data and proper covers.

I'll have to go over my settings with a fine tooth comb.
A reboot brought some sense to the folder issue.

thanx to a new functionality in xbmc (skin variables) i was able to reduce the skin by 5000 lines of code.

i've gone over each and every file of the skin to see where code could be reduced and there's a (big) chance i've made some errors in the process.

if you notice anything out of the ordinary (missing text / incorrect text), please let me know.

It would appear the .. entry is missing from the Video area, so there is currently no way to get to the Video Plugins. I'm using cbxbiker61's pulseaudio passthrough fork, which just rebased within the past 24 hours. The .. entry was there before I upgraded, of course I had the skin variable issue, so I wonder if something else changed.

Hey ronie are you the one that maintains this script?

I came across it with 10.1 and also noticed it in the nightlies (T! svn).

Code:

<favourites>

    <favourite name="Blu-ray HD-DVD (Untouched)">ActivateWindow(10025,&quot;smb://QUAD/M/Blu-ray HD-DVD (Untouched)&quot;)</favourite>

    <favourite name="Captain America The First Avenger (2011)">ActivateWindow(10025,&quot;/Users/Lee/Movies/Captain America The First Avenger (2011)/&quot;)</favourite>

</favourites>

Seems to add an extra 'return' before the end of the path
Also it does it for local paths as well.

yep same issue.
it appears to be a bug in xbmc and i've already passed it along to one of the xbmc devs.

heh, indeed...the script adds a return in front of every bracket ')' in the path..

this should fix it:
script.favourites-2.0.1.zip

please test and let me know Smile

Manually installed the script and it works great. Are scripts autoupdated like other addons (or will I have to manually install on other systems)?

Thanks for your update.
