yay no info
Well the code looks right, except your capitalisation of A in advancedsettings. Not sure if it's case sensitive or not. So this is saved as advancedsettings.xml in your userdata folder? And what do you mean nothing changes? You realise that you have to switch to file view and add a source folder with videos before you'll see them right?

lilmann1, you cannot expect an answer in 10 minutes. this is a global community. you need to let a thread sit for 24 hours.
and snoxbox is correct. the problem is your capitalization of AdvancedSettings. xml is case sensitive and xbmc uses all lower case tags. nothing happens because "AdvancedSettings" is not a recognized tag.

if advancedsettings is all lowercase, then everything should be ok. so you have this in userdata/advancedsettings.xml but you dont see any .mpeg, .mpg, or .avi files in a "music" source? are you positive? do you happen to have "hide media extensions" enabled?
(btw, you can delete the "remove" part. there are no .ex3 or .ex4 filetypes. those were just examples from the wiki.)

add <loglevel>2</loglevel> to your advancedsettings.xml file. reboot xbmc to have it take effect. do you see an onscreen freemem display?
** edit ** if you see the freemem display, it means the advancedsettings.xml file was read correctly. if you still dont see those file types, post your xbmc.log file.
