I tried this (and max-maxs mod) back in late March/April when moving from XBMC 10 to 11, but got frustrated by the change and reverted back.
So, refresh my memory, as I forget which mod had the support, and which didn't.
The ability to break down my "video" collection using "playlists", and then displaying the "playlists" as their Own Direct Item on the FRONT PAGE is critical to me.
I had spent hours and hours customizing XBMC 10 to get it done, and I am wondering if this mod supports MANY playlists on home page, or just a fixed # (2?3?4?5?)
For example, this breakdown would be just for the "Movies"
- Collection
- Unseen Movies
- 1970s & Earlier
- Western
- Musicals (Greece, Mama Mia, Sound of Music, etc)
- Movies for Family
- Animated
- ChickFlicks
Then the same kind of PALYLIST breakdown concept would be applied to TV Shows as well.
Will this mod handle that? I'll have a bit of time next week to try XBMC 11 (and the mods again...) So I want to sit down, get it fully fixed...
Thanks!

You can have 10 items on the front screen (including direct access to playlists).
However I have found this isn't too bad - you can add favourites too - so I have created a couple of folders in the playlist folder (called TV, and Film) and linked those directly on my front screen and then those sub folders have my wanted playlists in - which in turn can have folders (e.g. Countries which allows me to view British or German films).
