Hi guys new here and sorry for dragging up playlists topic again but I need help with these smart playlists. Im using XBMC Gotham 13.2 with skin aeon nox gotham.4.1.9.9 I've added all my Movies and TV shows through the add video option and have Aeon Nox set up the way I want it with Artwork and Display etc... but now want to create more home buttons instead of the usual 2...Movies and TV to 4 at present with the possibilty af adding another 2 or 3 further on down the line.
So I wan't to from Movies and TV to ......Movies Amercian TV DVD Brtiish TV...... I've been follwing this tutorial on youtube... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2j3gqgMaicc (are links allowed?) and although this tutorial is for Aeon MQ 5 I still have the same problems using it as well.
So far I've only managed to make 1 smart playlist for the DVD and it worked as expected but when I make another smart playlist for the Movies and disable main Movies button and when I goto the smart playlist Movies there is nothing in it except empty cases. The same happens when I try to do the TV shows as well, in fact sometimes when I create the British TV smart playlist it will only show 1 TV series instead of the 20 or so that I have. I'm following that tutorial every step of the way but but these smart playlists just won't work for me.
I should have that all my Movies and TV Shows are spread across a couple of hard drives (Instead of having them in a raid set up, is this the problem should they be in raid ?) but when I add them to XBMC I combined them all into 1 Movies Folder using the add and browse option. My DvD's are in there own folder on 1 hard drive and I add them separately to the rest.
So need to know what I'm doing wrong, why is this not working for me.
EDIT:
Finally figured it out, Movies must be on the same drive. Tried it with 1 drive only the same drive that contains the DVD's and set it up just like the tutorial in that youtube vid and both worked Movies and DVD.
Thanks for the help
