Is there a way to create my own video type or separate two sources? - Andarras - 2018-03-07
Hi guys,
I have a 4TB hdd attached to kodi which currently holds my actual movie files. I want to add a second folder with educational movies, such as seminars and qi gong courses. I don't want these to get bundled into the same video library as the movies.
Is there a way to create my own custom type such as TV show, music, video? Or a way to be able to switch between sources in the video library?
If not, I may need to have a separate hdd which I can just interchange.
Thanks for any suggestions/advice!

Hello Andarras
It is possible to achieve what you are after, but it is reliant on a compatible skin. The default Estuary skin is not compatible. Most other skins are compatible.
