Cheers ronie I'll have a look at the enable start up list, now how tricky is it for a complete skin noob to manualy modify the skin RE: boot into folder - ronie - 2015-02-28 in Startup.xml, replace Code: <onload>ReplaceWindow($INFO[System.StartupWindow])</onload> Code: <onload>ReplaceWindow(Music,"smb://server/share/music/")</onload> RE: boot into folder - bricktop - 2015-03-01 (2015-02-28, 00:21)ronie Wrote: in Startup.xml, replace where do i find the startup.xml ronie? im using openelec and its not on the sd card RE: boot into folder - ronie - 2015-03-02 no clue, never used OE. might be something like /home/username/.kodi/addons/skin.transparency/720p/Startup.xml RE: boot into folder - bricktop - 2015-03-02 (2015-02-28, 00:21)ronie Wrote: in Startup.xml, replace i found it and edited the .xml but its still booting into the music selection does the code ive used look right? Code: <onload>ReplaceWindow(Music,"smb:/var/media/300gb sata/music/")</onload> eta: just seen your post yes thats exactly where i found it also just to add i got the path by navigating to it using the file manager i dont know if maybe there should be something im missing at the beginning RE: boot into folder - ronie - 2015-03-02 this part is probably incorrect: Quote:smb:/var/media/300gb sata/music/ try with: Code: <onload>ReplaceWindow(Music,"/var/media/300gb sata/music/")</onload> RE: boot into folder - bricktop - 2015-03-02 (2015-03-02, 01:16)ronie Wrote: this part is probably incorrect:Quote:smb:/var/media/300gb sata/music/ That hasn't worked mate it boots up to a black screen apart from some information at the very top of the screen where u can see my music folder being scanned and it also telling me theres an update for openelec, I can hear the clicks when moving around with the keyboard and if I hit back or exit I go back to the main menu.
