Seeking help adding a new button to the Home Menu - Exist2Resist - 2014-01-09
So I followed these instructions; http://wiki.xbmc.org/index.php?title=HOW-TO:Edit_the_home_screen_skin_files
I successfully added a 3D Movie button on my home menu.
I successfully added the sources.
The problem is when i select the 3D Movie menu on the home screen it takes me to a blank list.
If I go to Videos and go to 3D Movies it lists the Movies in the folder on my server.
So basically the Home Menu button is not linking to the 3d Movies source.
Any ideas?
Here is the sources XML:
Code:
<sources>
<programs>
<default pathversion="1"></default>
</programs>
<video>
<default pathversion="1"></default>
<source>
<name>Television</name>
<path pathversion="1">smb://TOWER/Television/</path>
</source>
<source>
<name>Movies</name>
<path pathversion="1">smb://TOWER/Movies/</path>
</source>
<source>
<name>3D Movies</name>
<path pathversion="1">smb://TOWER/3D Movies/</path>
</source>
<source>
<name>Temp</name>
<path pathversion="1">smb://TOWER/Temp/</path>
</source>
</video>
<music>
<default pathversion="1">Music</default>
<source>
<name>Music</name>
<path pathversion="1">smb://TOWER/Music/</path>
</source>
</music>
<pictures>
<default pathversion="1"></default>
</pictures>
<files>
<default pathversion="1"></default>
</files>
</sources>The Edit in Home.XML:
Code:
<content>.....
<item id="19">
<label>3D Movies</label>
<onclick>ActivateWindow(Videos,3D Movies)</onclick>
<icon>-</icon>
<thumb>-</thumb>
</item>

Try ActivateWindow(Videos,"3D Movies")

Thanks I'll give that a try this weekend.

I have been trying to get this for a few days using every which syntax I can think of and both what the OP posted and the suggestion without getting any output when pressing the new button besides a blank box.
