Is there a way to do this?

Not the main menu but the sub menu of Movies

Thanks

Jezz_X; thanks for the reference

Mrkennedy, you mention having a separate bluRay source
just in case any1 else is looking and has done it the same way as me
( where HD and SD stuff is all mixed together in 1 source )
just create a smart-playlist with type = movie & resolution > 480
then you can make a button for it using the other post

voala

[Mrkennedy]

Thats what i'm looking for. Excellent (thanks Jezz for the link)

Now whats a smart-playlist?

[zosky]

Now whats a smart-playlist?

it will display anything that matches some condition(s)
... hence why its smart

go to the playlist area and select 'create smart playlist'
... there you'll see how it works & what can be done

there's also a fairly good write up in the wiki

Thanks zosky,

Where do you add the code? I've found the grouplist

Code:

<control type="grouplist" id="9010">
                    <posx>10</posx>
                    <posy>0</posy>
                    <width>240</width>
                    <height>240</height>
                    <align>center</align>
                    <onleft>9000</onleft>
                    <onright>Control.SetFocus(8000,0)</onright>
                    <onup>9010</onup>
                    <ondown>9010</ondown>
                    <itemgap>0</itemgap>
                    <visible>Container(9000).HasFocus(2)</visible>
                    <control type="button" id="90101">
                                               <include>ButtonHomeSubCommonValues</include>
                        <label>342</label>
                        <onclick>ActivateWindow(VideoLibrary,MovieTitles,return)</onclick>
                        <visible>Library.HasContent(Movies)</visible>
                    </control>
                    <control type="button" id="90102">
                        <include>ButtonHomeSubCommonValues</include>
                        <label>20343</label>
                        <onclick>ActivateWindow(VideoLibrary,TvShowTitles,return)</onclick>
                        <visible>Library.HasContent(TVShows)</visible>
                    </control>
                    <control type="button" id="90103">
                        <include>ButtonHomeSubCommonValues</include>
                        <label>20389</label>
                        <onclick>ActivateWindow(VideoLibrary,MusicVideoTitles,return)</onclick>
                        <visible>Library.HasContent(MusicVideos)</visible>
                    </control>
                    <control type="button" id="90104">
                        <include>ButtonHomeSubCommonValues</include>
                        <label>744</label>
                        <onclick>ActivateWindow(VideoFiles)</onclick>
                    </control>

                        <label>31007</label>
                        <onclick>ActivateWindow(VideoLibrary,Plugins)</onclick>
                        <visible>Library.HasContent(Video)</visible>
                    </control>
                    <control type="button" id="90107">
                        <include>ButtonHomeSubCommonValues</include>
                        <label>31007</label>
                        <onclick>ActivateWindow(VideoFiles,$LOCALIZE[1037])</onclick>
                        <visible>!Library.HasContent(Video)</visible>
                    </control>
                </control>

But don't fully understand where do i add a sub menu on movies, sorry if being dull this is the first time i'm using code and trying to get my head around it all.

Thanks

[zosky]

you're on the right path grass-hopper
you can't break it ... well you can,
but thats why you made a back-up right

you're looking at the video's sub-menu
... you may want to add it here
i dont use 'videos' (i prefer tv & movies)

hack, slash, save, reload, play
wash, rinse, repeat

hang in there and you'll get it just right

PS. one of the most helpfull tips is to map a key to XBMC.ReloadSkin ( i read that somewhere on here a while back)

~/.xbmc/userdata/keymaps/refresh.xml

Code:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
<keymap>
  <global>
    <keyboard>
      <F5>XBMC.ReloadSkin()</F5>
    </keyboard>
  </global>
</keymap>
