Program Addons won't detect hard drives - oc3lot - 2012-06-20

Hey all,

I'm running XBMC Eden (release) on Win7, and am seeing a weird problem in the program add-ons; none of them will see my local hard drives. The only option I have when trying to access something within an addon is the DVD-rom.

I have all of my media mapped fine to the local hard drives, and movies, music etc. are read fine. If I go into the Programs area, I can add a new source to my hard drives. However, when I load up ANY Program Add-on (in this case, the ROM Collection Browser) my only visible source is the DVD.

I've googled, searched this forum, played around in the settings, but I can't find why this is happening. Hopefully someone out there can help.

Cheers,
Oc3lot

Some addons you may have to manually edit the addon's config file to set the path. Look for a folder under XBMC\Userdata called addon_data and look for a settings.xml file or something similar. I remember having to do it for a few programs.
