This is a bit odd to me and I'm fairly sure I'm missing the obvious but it's 2AM and I'm tired of working on it...
I use the custom menus/submenus fairly extensively. Since I upgraded to Eden and T! 4.05 some (but not all) of my custom links are not working. It seems all of my links going to smart playlists (via favorites) are working. I also have a few that go to folders (again via favorites).
I have some pointing to "temporary" folders (places I store files I want to watch but don't expect to keep). Previously these all simply opened the folder in "file" mode. Some of these still work. Some do not. I can't make sense of what the difference might be.
This one works:
but this one doesn't:
Both folders are also in my source list:
One oddity is that if I open favorites and select "incoming" it works as expected. But if I map that favorite to a submenu item I simply get a screen showing me an empty list. I thought the problem might be it was opening in the wrong mode but the arrow keys won't pull up the side menu to allow me to change mode. If I use my mouse to move to the side I get a menu but the mode at the top is blank and while I can click on it to make changes, it has no practical effect (i.e. it will change the screen layout from list to fanart to whatever but it still won't show me any of my files.
I also checked the way the code reads in the submenu definition. Here I find a difference. The link for "tv-documentaries" appears without quotes
but the link for "incoming" has quotes:
I know there was an issue with windows adding """ before/after paths previously (and maybe it still happens) but as you can see from my favorites extract this is not the case.
Any clue what's going wrong?
