is it possible to configure xbmc kai support to use more than one directory for autostarting games?

i have some games on g: and some on f:

i tried separating the dir names with a comma but that doesnt work.

i have the same problem. i have both paths in the games section of my programs in the xboxmediacenter.xml file. still it doesnt see the games on the g drive. what am i doing wrong?

<myprograms>
<default>games</default>
<bookmark>
<name>games</name>
<path>f:\games\,f:\hddloader\, g:\games</path>
<depth>2</depth>
</bookmark>

figured this one out myself. the f:\hddloader path doesnt exist here. guess it is there by default. xbmc doesnt see anything after that one, so i removed it and all is well.

ts,

is there a way to set profiles to only select from a specific directory? or does xbmc in general pick up from the specified directories?

my thinking is set up multiple profiles.

my kids profile to only pick up games from the f:\games\kids directory (loaded with shrek, lego star wars and such) and not use kai, making it the default for the times i'm not home being the 'good parent' and monitoring what games they play.

then creating a 'weily' profile for me that looks to the f:\games (and deeper) directory that has everything else... doom 3, halo2, conker and so forth... for those times i actually have time to play games.
