If you're like me you have never used the studios option to sort your movies. I do however use files mode when I need to organize or test. Here is a simple modification to add the option on the sub-menu.

Simply modify and replace line 85 of Includes_Submenu.xml

Code:
<control type="button" id="46">

    <include>Submenu_Button</include>

    <include>MovieShortcutBools</include>                    

    <label>31926</label>

    <onclick>XBMC.ActivateWindow(MyVideoLibrary,moviestudios,return)</onclick>

</control>

With:

Code:
<control type="button" id="46">

    <include>Submenu_Button</include>

        <include>MovieShortcutBools</include>    

    <label>31932</label>

    <onclick>XBMC.ActivateWindow(MyVideoFiles)</onclick>

</control>

Do you mean something like this?

This removes the Title option. I feel the Title option is redundant due to the fact clicking on Movies itself does the same thing.

To perform this easy modification open Includes_Submenu.xml and replace the code from lines 55 to 89.

This was a veyr easy mod and it works great. Thank you soo much.

I was wondering if this could be used also if I add a a new source in the file section. for instance I add a new source <kids movies> and then add it to the file section and set the content as movies. Then could I use this mod to add it under the movie section so that it would go to that path for kids section Huh
