Add/Edit Home Screen

joebrady Wrote:I just updated my xbmc tech build last night and noticed that the profiles did not show up. When looking at the xbox over ftp, i see that the profile folders were transfered, but I still had to go in and manually add a profile through the skin, then it told me that it found the folder and asked if i wanted to keep the same options. Anyone else seen this?

Next time you upgrade, copy over your profiles.xml.

you deleted system/profiles.xml

ah, thank you! Could this not be incorporated into the UserData folder?

no. as it allows you to change the location of the userdata folder - chicken and egg and all that

Did not know you could change the location of UserData, I'll have to look into that....

I've also been trying to add a kids section to the homepage.

I've managed to edit the 'adult' option so that it shows as 'Kids' at the homepage, and links to my Kids movies share when chosen.

My only problem is that when i enter my new kids movies section it links to my normal movies background folder, and not my kids movies background folder (which is really the adult background folder)

Anyone know of a way of fixing this?

This is what i've done to the homescrollers.xml:

<item id="12">
<label>KIDS</label>
<onclick>Skin.SetBool(videomovies)</onclick>
<onclick>Skin.Reset(videotv)</onclick>
<onclick>Skin.Reset(videoclips)</onclick>
<onclick>Skin.Reset(videomusic)</onclick>
<onclick>Skin.Reset(videoadult)</onclick>
<onclick>Skin.Reset(gametrailers)</onclick>
<onclick>Skin.Reset(movietrailers)</onclick>
<onclick>XBMC.ActivateWindow(MyVideoFiles,KIDS MOVIES)</onclick>
<visible>!Skin.HasSetting(nomovies) + !Skin.HasSetting(movielibrary)</visible>
</item>

Thanks for the reply... much appreciated

Ignore below post... don't know what that was about

@ PJ: Maybe it's cos you have "KIDS MOVIES" with a space in it... perhaps you could define it as "kidsmov" to keep it simple, and avoid having spaces.

Thanks for the reply oncgde2,

My kids movie share opens fine, i just need to know how to link the share with the adult movie background folder, that is set in the Aeon settings page.

At the mo it links to the movie background folder, so I've got all my sons movies being displayed against a backdrop of a big scary Alien
