Am I the only one who finds the Wiki incredibly frustrating to use?
It reads like a Logitech user guide - lots of info on what I can do but any info on how to do it is almost impossible to find unless you know the EXACT keyword to search for.
Don't misunderstand me. I love XBMC and the community does an amazing job of developing and maintaining an awesome bit of software.
I make no secret of the fact that I am not the brightest star in the sky when it comes to this stuff, but I am seriously tired of being told "read the wiki" and then spending hours going round and round in circles searching for instructions on basic functions.
Right now I am trying to troubleshoot my library of TV shows and I am being told to make sure I am in File Mode and not Library Mode.
A search of the wiki for File Mode gives me lots of useful information on what File Mode is and when I should use it. The same for Library Mode.
What I have NOT found is any kind of information on how to check which mode I am in, and/or how to change from one to the other.

Thank you. I feel much better now that I have that out of my system
