More HUBs - D.K. - 2015-03-21

I like HUBs in Arctic I have two ideas for new useful HUBs.
Firstly KidsHUB/FamilyHUB containing educational, family movies/animations and tv shows. It would be helpful for many people to separate media for children.
My second idea is MusicHUB with music(albums,latest albums, artists etc.), musicvideos and concerts.

Yep I have some more hubs planned, just haven't had the time yet.

I've been trying to find some info on how hubs work, could somebody please explain or point me in the right direction?

The Hub is basically a custom window with menu items. I initially didn't know what hubs were because by default, they're not visible. You need to create a shortcut to the Movie or TV Hub by going to Settings > Skin Settings > Home > Customise home menu > select the menu item/submenu item that you'd like to edit and then click Choose Item for Menu > Common > choose between Movie Hub or TV Hub. Exit out of the settings, wait for the menu to rebuild and a menu item should appear linking it to the specified Hub.

I want to chime in and say +5 for this. A "Music Hub" is a really good idea Smile

Personally I'd also love to see an "Internet Hub" where I could set up shortcuts to different webpages.
I'd configure the rotating thumbnails to be a shortcut launcher for my most watched Twitch channels,
then I'd set up 8 shortcuts on the right side for my most used webpages, like google, youtube.tv etc.
All of these would start the respective page in Google Chrome in kioskmode (fullscreen).
I am sure I could make this work if only I had an extra hub to play around with that I could somehow rename to whatever I wanted Smile

Is this something that could be added, or is it somehow possible that I can add it myself without screwing up the TV Hub / Movie Hub?

Keep up the crazy good work, jurialmunkey. This skin is easily the best I've ever tried.
Expect a donation coming your way some time soon Smile

Check latest git (v2.2.6 for Jarvis). Now you can make up to 9 different hubs from the home customisation screen. Big Grin

From the date of my previous post in this thread, very long overdue!

Awesome! Smile Thank you - looks great.
One thing; it looks like the header information ("TV Hub", "Movie Hub" etc) now only shows the text "Home" for all the hubs. Am I doing something wrong, or...?

Could anyone offer me some advice? Smile
