I am using XBMC 9.04 final currently on an AppleTV and would desperately need an easy way to trigger library scan and update. Now I need to reboot XBMC to do this.

The problem is that without a full keyboard it is difficult to open context menu just for this purpose. Why not make it an option accessible on the left sidebar while browsing your videos?

Thanks!

Hi and welcome to the forums.

The update button is something you should request for the given skin you're using currently. Another way to trigger a library update would be to add a new favorite item like ..

Code:
<favourites>

    <favourite name="Update Library">UpdateLibrary(video)</favourite>

</favourites>

to your favourites.xml (located in your userdata folder).

Thanks for the help! I got the favorite item working Nod
