Is it possible to have several different libraries? Or how do you use Clips/etc?

I would like to have all my childrens movie appear when I go to Clips. And all my regular movies when I go to Movies.

Sorry if dumb question.

Unfortunately you can't have separate libraries.

I have my "Kids Shows" set up in a separate location as my movies, and I set them up as a separate source in XBMC. Then I rename clips to "KIDS" and direct the shortcut to my "Kids Shows" source in videos. It's not a library view, just the files view, but I have thumbnails for all those movies, and that's all my kids need is a visual way for them to choose their movies.

Big Grin funny that you should ask - I use profiles in XBMC.
Example;
Master Profile = access to movies, tv, music, comics
Home Profile = access to home movies (soon), karaoke (working great), pictures

*example music has it's own library in master profile and karaoke has it's own library in home profile

You can have profiles share databases/sources or you can select the databases to be separate as I noted above.

I encourage you to play around with it and check out the XBMC wiki if you need some setup tips
