With this skin having so many options for customisation, I am interested to hear how others have set theirs up - particularly how you have separated content for different family members etc. I am having problems with using profiles with password protection (ended up with a skin reset!) so I would like to avoid this as an option.
The options I have considered (feel free to suggest other addons etc);
- profiles (with/without passwork protection)
- pinsentry addon (alternative for locking down media)
- home menu presets
- superfavourites addon
The basics of what I want to achieve;
- ability to control what can be seen/accessed by children
- ability to switch between menus tailored to each family member (or at least adults vs children)
- ability to have some content that only I can access
I am thinking;
- everything under master profile
- home menu presets for 'adults', 'kids' and 'all'- switchable from system menu ('s' on keyboard). Don't think you can switch preset from a home menu link... can you?
- pinsentry addon set to request pin for all movies/tv with adult rating, and selected addons, between hours of 06:00 - 20:00
- superfavourites folder for each family member, with mine/others password protected (I think this is possible within superfavourites)
This sounds like the best/only way to achieve what I want without using the kodi master profile lock.
Can anyone suggest any other tips?
