I'm really interested in this, too. I have a collection of Formula One Races from the beginning of the 90s and I would really like them to show up in XBMC.

So far I managed to rename the "Videos" Entry but that's not exactly what i want. It would be awesome if someone could show how to

- create a new entry in the home menu
- link this entry to a specific folder

Thx!

Yes this would be very useful. I'd add a "Music Videos" section to mine...

And a "Podcasts"

me 5th, would be awesome to be able to add a custom catagory and tell it what kind of content would be in it. As already mentioned a Music Videos one would be perfect for my setup. If this is do-able and wouldn't be a huge undertaking I would love to see a future release of MediaStream have this Big Grin

I'd like to setup a 'New Shows' category that would show my most recently added shows.

That'll be awesome - in the meantime, is there any way to do it in the xml file?

Fair enough - those variables had me stumped.
