Set up kodi to show movies and tv show in one screen - 123321 - 2019-10-20

How to do this? To movies automatically show on home screen?

Basically you can't. They are intentionally kept seperate by necessity from metadata scraping.

But you can have the sections side by side on the main menu, and depending on the skin used also with widgets and other on-screen displays of items like newly added, in progress and suchlike.

not easy but with a bit of modding
monie widget
xml:
<include content="WidgetListPoster" condition="Library.HasContent(movies)">

                            <param name="content_path" value="videodb://movies/"/>

                            <param name="widget_header" value="$LOCALIZE[31010]"/>

                            <param name="widget_target" value="videos"/>
