First off great work BigNoid on this skin.
I'm setting up my XBMC from scratch after jumping from Frodo to Gotham. I was on Nox 4.0 so I'm familiar with the skin but things have changed in 5.0 I have some questions on configurations and am wondering if some people on here can help me out.
I have 2 sources for video files (SMB shares). HD Movies and Cartoons (Animated stuff)
I have added them as separate sources in XBMC and noted they both contain movies. Also the sources are setup to be included in library scans.
I would like to setup the Menu so that on the Movies tab (Home menu) I only see the content in HD Movies SMB share.
I would like to create a Custom Menu option on the Home Menu for Cartoons and only show the stuff in my Cartoons SMB share
RIght now after adding both SMB shares as Movie sources when I click on Movies I see the titles from both sources.
What would I have to configure as the Default Select Action in the Home menu setup to set this up? If I have to re add sources that is fine with me as well.
Thanks
For a main menu item, choose "Default select action", "Video Library", "Sources"
For a submenu item, hit the "Type" button until the "Library Sources" group is shown.
For both a main and submenu item, select the source, and any subdirectory you want to only display content from. Then select "Create shortcut to here". You'll be asked what content the source contains, select "Movies" and you're done - a smart playlist will be generated and linked to the menu item to only show content from the source you've selected.
That worked great. And making the custom playlists for a widget for each menu item is quite easy. I remember struggling a bit on Nox 4 to get that working. Double Kudos to Big Noid and thanks Unfledged!!!
