How to make smart playlist to "Eden" home menu item

Hi all

I searched but always disscussion is the version before Eden, another method is
"System (Settings) -> Skin -> Add-on shortcuts", but there i cannot found favorite path in "Eden"?

now i can make smart playlist to favorites, but i cannot make favorites to home main menu
or home video's sub menu, could someone tell me how to do ? thanks.

My MOD is capable of doing this...
Or take a look of how to code this in default confluence:

Sorry, which one mod file i need to download?
GenreFanart for Confluence-MOD ?
GenreCover for Confluence-MOD ?

and you mean if i use your mod version,i can go to
System (Settings) -> Skin -> Add-on shortcuts
then select "favorite" or "smart playlist" to add the new item ?

You need to install the skin from the xbmcnerds-repository:
http://repository-xbmcnerds.googlecode.c...en-pre.zip

If skin is activated then--->system--->skin--->mod-settings--->home--->custom home playlist...

Please consider that the mod is eden-only...

Thank you^^ i have been successful with your confluence-mod, but i have 7~9 smart playlist, that'll be not convenient selection because those items are too big even though your limitation is 2, do you know how to do to make these smart playlists into film's sub-menu? not in home menu? thank you.

You need to edit the IncludesHomeMenuItems.xml...

There in you have the sub for movies:


then you have to create a button for the entry:


This requires that the playlist is in the skin folder "playlists"...
But you also can change the path to whatever you like...

<include name="HomeSubMenuMovies">

Code:

<control type="button" id="90167">
    <include>ButtonHomeSubCommonValues</include>
    <label>Name of your button here</label>
    <onclick>XBMC.ActivateWindow(10025,special://skin/playlists/Playlist.xsp,return)</onclick>
</control>

Oh ! mad-max , you're really great!!
i'll try it later, but i'm afraid i'll be fail because i'm newer for edit code...
Why don't you make it to be a function into your confluence-mod?
i think this should be more useful for most people...(i think), but anyway, thank you^^.

one more question, is the number important for XBMC code?
i see two numbers here..
id="90167"
10025,special...
Does the number must be what you write?

Having many of these custom items in home and submenu slows down the skin...
It should be really fast as it is designed to run on low-spec machines as atv2 or acer revo and so on...

The button id must be ongoing in order to identify the button...first button is as described 90167...the second must be 90168, the third 90169 and so on...

The number 10025 must be always the same...it's the id for the view in video-database and not file-view...

Dear mad-max

I cannot found the current code to edit the <onclick>...
my playlists are in

Quote: C:\Users\user\AppData\Roaming\XBMC\userdata\playlists\video\

Quote:<onclick>XBMC.ActivateWindow(10025,special:C:\Users\user\AppData\Roaming\XBMC\userdata​\playlists\video\playlist.xsp,return)</onclick>

Could you teach me what's the current code for this? Thank you.
