Me again….

So I have set up library for files on my PC, fantastic.Got scrapers to load all the visual stuff.

How do I add plug ins (add ons) to my library so I can scrape all the data and show as visually amazing as my local files.

I want to create a home menu button that just goes to kids movies but from a plug in (add-on).

Does that make sense ? I am new to this so……

HI! rancid

What exactly, you want to do ?
Something like shortcut for addon or something completely different.

Ok

I want to create home menu buttons that goes to a plug in and display movies or tv show content by action or genre or any content.
And I want it to show all the lovely scrape stuff on the home menu when you "on focus" ? the button.

does that make no sense ? Apologise if i am hard work but i know nothing or at best very little.

Something like this. These are lines from skin, Confluence

<control type="button" id="90164">
<include>ButtonHomeSubCommonValues</include>
<label>369</label>
<onclick>ActivateWindow(Videos,MovieTitles,return)</onclick>
</control>
<control type="button" id="90165">
<include>ButtonHomeSubCommonValues</include>
<label>135</label>
<onclick>ActivateWindow(Videos,MovieGenres,return)</onclick>
</control>
<control type="button" id="90166">
<include>ButtonHomeSubCommonValues</include>
<label>652</label>
<onclick>ActivateWindow(Videos,MovieYears,return)</onclick>
</control>
<control type="button" id="90167">

thanks for your time I am using something like the below - might not be exact cause I am not at home right now

<onclick>ActivateWindow(RunAddon(Addon.id)</onclick>


(Skin Confluence)
So you click on the home menu button and it opens up the add on at root so you see a list

Movies
TV Shows
blah
blah
blah

but I want the button to go directly to this path within the add on

Movies>Genres>Action

So how do I get it to open up the listing that I want to see ie. Action

-
Any help is

You just need, add to favorite what you want, then pull a line from favourites.xml
