Custom menu items with mixed movies - Ghorin - 2014-10-18 Hello, I'm using Amber on my new raspxbmc and I have difficulties to create items in the menu with separated movies. What I have on my external usb drive : /media/usbdisk/movies /media/usbdisk/cartoons /media/usbdisk/child_movies /media/usbdisk/tv_shows What I would like to have in my main XBMC menu : - Movies : displays movies from /media/usbdisk/movies - Cartoons : displays movies from /media/usbdisk/cartoons - Child movies : displays movies from /media/usbdisk/child_movies - TV shows : displays movies from /media/usbdisk/tv_shows What I do : - create a playlist "movie" with filter : path starting with /media/usbdisk/movie - create a playlist "cartoon" with filter : path starting with /media/usbdisk/cartoon - create a playlist "child_movie" with filter : path starting with /media/usbdisk/child_movie - create a playlist "tv_shows with filter : path starting with /media/usbdisk/tv_show - for each playlist, create a favorite with the same name ==> so far, no error but when i open a playlist or a favorite, it's empty. Then I add a video source for each folder : - movie : path = /media/usbdisk/movie, category : Movies, default other options - cartoon : path = /media/usbdisk/cartoon, category : Movies, default other options - child_movie : path = /media/usbdisk/child_movie, category : Movies, default other options - tv_show : path = /media/usbdisk/tv_show, category : Tv shows, default other options ==> now the playlist and favorites shows content. But the movies from "child_movie" folder are also seen in the "movie" folder while it does not have the same path (in the filter and in the video source path). I don't understand what to do to have menu items with only their corresponding video files. Probably that i'm not doing the right way. ps : i also go into Amber parameters to add my personal favorites in the menu items list. Thanks for your assistance RE: Custom menu items with mixed movies - pecinko - 2014-10-19 Not a skin question. Try path contains or ends with : "movie", "children" etc instead of starts with. RE: Custom menu items with mixed movies - Ghorin - 2014-10-20 ok pecinko, thanks for the advice, i will try. |
