Hi all
Been using XBMC for a couple of months, and fairly confident using it now.
Installed aeon Nox today and just cannot get the custom menus to work as i'd expect. What i'm trying to achieve is to end up with the following Home menu options:
Movies
TV Shows
Family Movies
Stand-up Comedy
I've tried adding a custom menu, and using a Favourite i've already created, Family Movies (which points to a specific network share where i've only got family movies saved, not mixed up with "adult" movies). I can see and select the menu from the Home screen, but when i enter that screen a get a garbled mess of a screen. I've searched for the problem on here, and one suggestion says to modify the guisettings.xml file. I've looked in the specified location and the file isn't there. I've also done a Windows search and cannot find that file anywhere.
I've therefore tried using Playlists as an alternative method of getting my desired setup. I've created my playlists, added them as custom menu items. When i seletc these from my home menu i just get blank placeholders where the dvd cover artwork should be, no backgrounds, and nothing is selectable. Again, i've tried searching these forums, but can't find antyhing specific to my problems.
Everything else seems to work fine, Movies and TV Shows.
Can anyone please help me out here, becuase my setup is almost perfect!
Thanks.
