I'm following the wiki page on the custom video nodes (http://wiki.xbmc.org/index.php?title=Custom_video_nodes) and it's working just fine.

I can't seem to figure out the syntax for limiting the special nodes like actors, genres. I can limit the titles to show what I want, but under actors I still see the full list of actors and adding a rule doesn't to the XML doesn't seem to help

I think this is now possible in the nightly builds. At least, it's possible with smart playlists, so I assume it works with custom nodes as well.

Basically, you just include:

Code:

<group>actors</group>

in the node, and it should group it by actors.

Also available are: tags, genres, years, directors, writers, studios, countries, and sets.

Sets can also be "mixed" (Which I presume means single-movie sets are flattened):

Code:

<group mixed="true">sets</group>

Ok, it sound like there's nothing I'm doing wrong and I need to wait until this is added into the stable release. I'm using 12.2

Another question about custom nodes:

When I'm using the iPad remote, the list of Movies is the full list. Is there a certain node I can restrict on the XBMC to filter that list when it shows up on the iPad?
