Unable to set Default movie folder
#1
latest nightly:

I have the following setting

Code:
<sources>
    <video>
        <default pathversion="1">childrens_movies</default>

        <source>
            <name>childrens_movies</name>
            <path pathversion="1">smb://user:pass@storage/top/childrens_movies/</path>
        </source>
    </video

...

</sources>

This worked before, but somehow the design has changed.

However when I start Videos button, it starts on initial screen and not inside childrens_movies. I am presented with a Files folder which won't help my kids as they are not experienced users..

ActivateWindow(VideoFiles,childrens_movie) should still work I think?

Alternatively, ActivateWindow(Videos,childrens_movie) may also work - not sure.

Sorry for reviving an old tread, but why is the video default stuff removed? Seems ok to me to remove it from the context menu, but the default video folder from the sources.xml should be processed. For Pictures and Music it does work, so why not for Videos?

The workaround seems to modify via skinning, but this way it must be done for every skin I want to use separately?

Maybe I'm missing an easier option?
