I chose to have files view instead of library view for both movies and TVshows so I have the ability to delete files from XBMC .
Now since I am transitioning to Aeon from mayhem III one major difference is that on Aeon there a re two shortcuts for video: Movies and TVshows
This has cause me a problem very often when I click on movies I find my self in TVshows folder and vice-versa .
Am I missing a setting somewhere?

Here is the help direct from the readme file

3.3 Home page shortcuts
------------------------

Aeon features a larger-than-usual array of Home page shortcuts, ranging from
Movies and TV Shows to Adult and Arcade. This does stretch XBMC's abilities,
however, and the new menu options are really just shortcuts to bookmarks
specified in your sources.xml file. This file is located in XBMC's UserData
folder and follows a strict format. For example:

<music>
<default>Music</default>
<source>
<name>Music</name>
<path>/home/djh/Music</path>
</source>
</music>

Each media source in XBMC is defined using a separate <source></source>
section, the <name> tag being what Aeon looks for. To use its additional
Home options, you need to define sources with the following names:

OPTION SOURCE NAME
Movies Movies
TV Shows TV Shows
Clips Clips
Arcade Arcade
Adult asource
Comics Comics
Game Trailers Gametrailers
Movie Trailers Movietrailers

In addition to these default names, you can specify your own in the
Aeon->Home Shortcuts menu. This is also where you can turn individual Home
shortcuts on and off according to taste.

An example sources.xml with comments can be downloaded here:

Basically you need to setup two sources in the movies section of your sources.xml file then in the aeon->home shortcuts menu you need to type the name of each source in the corresponding section. for things like movie trailers, game trailers, clips you do the same thing. more sources in the movies section of sources. comics should be in the pictures section of sources.xml etc. I hope i answered your question. if not please clarify and i'll try to have an answer for you.

Thanks Dylan it explains a lot.I will try to rename things and see what happens.
I wanted to get that example.zip to get ideas but the link is dead.

So I went and edited my sources.xml as follows:

Code:

<video>
        <default>Movies</default>
        <source>
            <name>Movies</name>
            <path>smb://K-DESKTOP/Dl/Movies/</path>
            <thumbnail>C:\folder.jpg</thumbnail>
        </source>
        <source>
            <name>TV Shows</name>
            <path>smb://K-DESKTOP/Dl/series/</path>
        </source>
    </video>

But still movies are persistant but tvshows are not.

I just figured it out.I went into the source and saw it had a different name than the folders name.And that fixed it.
Awesome thanks for your help.

By the way, you can delete files in library mode as well. You first select 'Remove title from library' and then you'll be given the option to remove the file itself.

Oh cool I didn't know that it gives you the option.
