I have a bit of a 'how do I do this?' question...
The main things I want to be able to get to from the main menu easily are:
Movies, TV Shows, Video add ons, Music and Photos. Now... I can get to Movies and TV Shows easily, but the only ways I can see to get to video add ons is to either have 'Videos' as a menu option, and then from there go into that and then click on the '..' for up one level, then to video add ons... a bit messy.
Or... have Add ons on the home screen, but then that's messy too as it has all of the add ons under it, and is just confusing for the wife and kids.
Is there was a way of getting what I want? Which in entirety would be:
TV Shows
Movies
Video Add Ons (Although would be great to change the name)
Kid's Videos... (This would be a pain probably. There is a folder of kids videos we have which are not tv shows and not movies, just... stuff, so they don't add to the library at all and the only way to look at them is as a non library folder. So currently I have 'videos' as a menu item along with movies and tv shows, and then go into that, and then to the kids folder... it's messy)
Photos
Music
Exit
So, currently I have Movies, TV Shows, Photos, Music and Exit all handled fine (no submenus, works nicely, goes straight to them)... It's just the add ons and non library video folder that'd be great to add.
Is this a case of me needing to fiddle with some xml files to define my home menu?
If so, that's cool, I'm just unsure what I should be doing exactly.
