I have created favorites from different media files : video (AVI), music (MP3), images (JPG and CBR). All those media can be directly open and play or display from XBMC. Then I have added them into favorites, like below :

Code:
<favourites>

    <favourite name="V_for_Vendetta_00.cbr" thumb="special://masterprofile/Thumbnails/generated/1/1ba6ae94.png">PlayMedia(&quot;/home/angelscry/Desktop/V For Vendetta/content/V_for_Vendetta_00.cbr&quot;)</favourite>

    <favourite name="v-for-vendetta.jpg" thumb="special://masterprofile/Thumbnails/7/7b15a807.jpg">PlayMedia(&quot;/home/angelscry/Desktop/V For Vendetta/content/v-for-vendetta.jpg&quot;)</favourite>

    <favourite name="V For Vendetta - Tchaikovsky - 1812 Overture.mp3">PlayMedia(&quot;/home/angelscry/Desktop/V For Vendetta/content/V For Vendetta - Tchaikovsky - 1812 Overture.mp3&quot;)</favourite>

    <favourite name="V For Vendetta.avi" thumb="special://masterprofile/Thumbnails/Video/7/auto-7d687eff.tbn">PlayMedia(&quot;/home/angelscry/Desktop/V For Vendetta/content/V For Vendetta.avi&quot;)</favourite>

</favourites>

Problem is that only AVI and MP3 files can be played but JPG and CBR files are not displayed. What is going wrong? Images files are not supported by the PlayMedia() function? Is there a different XBMC function to display images ? If so, what is the right function to use? And so, that's mean there is a bug with images favorites creation.

If you create favourites into XBMC, they will be automatically saved into an XML file : http://wiki.xbmc.org/index.php?title=Favourites.xml
