How do I add program addons to the home screen?

I love the Neon skin but would like to add to the home screen a link that takes me to a section where I can select movie trailers, YouTube and other program addons. Is this possible?

Thanks

David

Its under the settings >skin settings> custom home

you can make custom sections there.

Thanks, I found that bit and I can add an option to the home screen but I don't know how to put trailers, Youtube etc to appear. Selecting the option doesnt do anything. I think I need a "How To" on this.

Add what you want on the home screen to your favorites (just press "C" on an item, and then "Add to Favorites"). Once in Favorites, you can add it to the home screen in Settings.

Thanks stoli, I will give it a go. I love Neon, thank you for all your work.

Ok, this is not happening for me!

To be clear on what I am trying to do...........

There is an ADDONS option on the home screen that when you select it it takes you to a screen that displays some of the enabled addons like MCERemote, RSS Editor and Cinema Experience but it doesn't show YouTube or Apple Movie Trailers.

What I want is to have a home screen option called say TRAILERS that when I select it I go to a screen that has YouTube and Apple Movie Trailers on it that I can then select and use the plugin just like with the ADDONS option.

All I can do at present is add a Home Screen item and add a favorite to it but that means having a Home Screen item for everything I want to access.

How do I do that?

Thanks

Roll up your sleeves and write some xml! There really is no way to do what you want. At best you could have it go to the video addons, but you can already do that via the Videos menu item.

Thanks stoli, I think I will use the submenu from the VIDEOS menu.

i have been faced with the same problem... and this solution will not work for me as i like to have video's item hidden? where is the same button in movies or tv shows? it appears in other skins...

if i try to make the video-addon a fav using the "c" key it just asks me if i want to configure it or get info. no option to add as favourite

Go to Videos > Addons. Not Settings > Addons.
