Smart Playlists - What Location For Files?
#1
Hello

I have some smart playlists with the following code:

Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes" ?>
<smartplaylist type="tvshows">
    <name>Documentry</name>
    <match>one</match>
   <rule field="path" operator="startswith">D:\Documentry</rule>
    <order direction="ascending">tvshow</order>
</smartplaylist>

However when I click on them in XBMC, then they don't find the files in the Documentry folder.
If I have to make it relative to the location of XBMC (C:\Program Files\XBMC) that what would I put in for the above code?

Also, I don't see the area where I would edit Smart Playlists in XBMC, where is this?

Thanks

you are probaby best off making the smart playlist within xbmc. Go the to the Videos submenu and select playlists then new smart playlist.

Hmm, okay, so I found it, but now I have found out that it seems none of my video files are added.
This software seems rather complicated for what it does :S

Now I have to add all my files manually to the library. Is there a way to do this automatically?
I can't seem to find a menu option to do this :S

I am using aeon skin. looks like in confluence the video submenu you want is Library, then you can select Playlist and the create new smart playlist.

you access the submenu by pushing the right arrow key when you have videos selected in the Home screen.
