Hi,

I am using XBMC 12.0 and the confluence skin. When I start XBMC I would like to always have a specific home screen menu item selected, e.g. Music. How would I do that?

Best regards, Moorstream

Hi,

Thanks for your reply. That did not actually do what I want. I just want the menu item on the home screen selected, not entered. I would also like to have a custom home screen menu item selected (not only Music) that I manually entered in the Home.xml <content> tag. Is it possible?

Best regards, Moorstream

You can edit home.xml to do this.

1. Go to Line 729-733 of home.xml

Code:

            <control type="group" id="9001">
                <posx>0</posx>
                <posy>70</posy>
                <onup>9000</onup>
                <ondown>9002</ondown>

2. Add <defaultcontrol>#</defaultcontrol> # is a digit where 0 would be the most left item.

Code:

            <control type="group" id="9001">
                <posx>0</posx>
                <posy>70</posy>
                <onup>9000</onup>
                <ondown>9002</ondown>
                <defaultcontrol>2</defaultcontrol>
