Audiobook is just a smart playlist, you'll have to edit your nfo's and set genre to Audiobook. Create a new smart playlist, with rule "Genre" is "Audiobook" ...
This Playlist can be added to home menu.

Let me understand, there are a bunch of Items you can put on Home Menu with Cirrus Extended, Addons, Favorites, Playlists ... etc.
So why we should integrate more and more Items to Home by default?

Cheers

Comics are .cbr files that can be read by the photo library. You can add your comics as a favorite and then add that to the main screen just like Butchabay suggested.

Speaking of Favorites, I noticed that this has the Queens English spelling. Would I just need to modify the English strings.xml file to change this?

Will be fixed for next update!

Lol, while that is true, if you look in your user data folder you will find "favourite.XML" -- it would seem the 'limey bastards and those that love them have had somewhat influential role in the development of XBMC Wink

Let's get back on topic !

Thanks Butcabay & htpchuy for clarifying that.In the same vein ,would you know of any addon / script that extracts the first page / cover of a .cbr file to be displayed as the main image or one has to do that manually ?

It happens automatically as long as you have the setting turned on.

Settings>Files List= turn on Extract Thumbnails

Or you get something wrong Smile

For some reason, many of my tvshow banners don't show up in bannerwallview. It works in the original Cirrus, as well as all other skins. With Rightlistview, the ones that don't show up are replaced by a banner that says Cirrus Extended.

Any ideas?

I don't know what I could have gotten wrong--put the repository in my addons folder, installed directly from repository-- the end.

Banner.jpg in each tvshow folder. The easy way, go to system,skin,extended mod, run logo downloader. Wait till it scrapes all your tv shows.
