Aren't profiles cover what you want to do?

Didn't know it had profiles... looking at it now, do I have to pick the profile and login with a password each time I start up XBMC?

you can password protect a source. we don't support individual folders, if you need that granularity, use your operating system's permission control (or reorganize your files..)
enable the master lock, then open context on the source you want to lock.

Can I just ask....
Do profiles require you to have access to the HTPC so you can log in and out of Windows then relaunch XBMC? Or do they work another way? Eg once XBMC is loaded you log in to a certain profile using username/password?
I only ask because we'd too like certain films protected from our kids (any 12, 15 or 18 rated film), without having to log in and out of things if its possible..certainly without having to access the underlying PC as the wife certainly wouldn't be able to cope with that!
