Hi all,

This is my first time using XBMC, and I found Rapier to be my favorite skin after trying majority of them.

I just have a few issues:

I don't have a Movie section. I have Videos and TV Shows, but no Movies.

Ideally I would like to have the following menus:

General, System, Music, Movies, TV Shows, Programs, Pictures, Weather.

If possible, I would like to replace the Videos section with Movies, and remove Videos from the list completely.


Also, my file structure at the moment is:

-MOVIES
--Movie Name
---Movie.avi

-TELEVISION
--Tv Show Name
---Tv Show Season
----Seasons Episodes

Is this suitable to use for XBMC?

Rapier is the only thing stopping me from going back to Boxee. It has easy navigation, which is great for my housemates who don't really understand tech much. XBMC has better scrapers than Boxee which is another plus.

Thanks in advanced for any help!

Your file structure is fine. That's how mine is set up.

When you add a source (e.g. the directory MOVIES), just make sure to SET CONTENT to specify it contains movies and pick whatever movie scraper you want. Once items these items are scanned you will then get the Movie Menu on your home menu since you now have scanned a file that xbmc identifies as a movie into your library.

You have the option of hiding menu items. I think it's System -> Skin and then some options to hide/unhide whatever menu items you want.

TL: DR

Yah, everything you are looking to do is possible Nod

Ahh, thank you so much.

I had hoped it would be something simple like that I was missing Big Grin

Time to start playing, and see how much I can automate Rolleyes
