Hello,

I need to make a custom link in main menu, that will open a specific Android app when clicked.

- I can start the app if i go through programs menu and find it in the list of all Androiod apps.
Clicking on the app name in there (name is DVBPlayer), does start the app succesfully


- I am using skin BELLO that supports customization of main menu.
I edit one existing main menu items, change its custom action to :
StartAndroidActivity(DVBPlayer)

Menu item does nothing when clicked...

PS Also did try: StartAndroidActivity(DVBPlayer, return)
again no luck...

I have found this syntax in Kodi Wiki, but obviously i m doing something wrong...
Anyone can help with the correct syntax? I am using V14.2 rc for Android (arm) build of Mar 11
Maybe i need to revert to older Kodi/XBMC??
Maybe i need to use another skin? Maybe Bello is not that good in custom menu items?

Thank you

No such action defined?

Meanwhile, a successful call of that app when clicking on its name from within the kodi > programs > list of all apps, is different
