Just quick one...
I have a locked down profile for the kids which only has Movies and Quit on the Home Window. After boot up and auto-login the Quit option is highlighted.
Is there any way of defaulting it to highlight the Movies option? I just want it so that when the kids power the thing on it goes straight to the Movies home shelf..

Hey everyone,
Just installed the skin, love it so far. Few q's:
1. The favorites tab displays add on icons on the top of the screen when you hover over Favorites. Is there a way to do the same for the other tabs, for eg Music, I want to display the add on icons on the top like Soundcloud, Mixcloud, etc
2. Is there a way to categorize a few add ons in to a videos section and when you click videos it opens the list of video addons which was just created? I would like to organize things in this fashion.
3. Is there a way to add a quit or close button in the bottom corner of the screen like the confluence skin?
Thanks!

Can I change/add or remove any of the Amber Skin's Homeshelf Submenu entries on the Homescreen?
I can't figure out on how to do this!? I would like to add for e.g. a linkt to the Video Addon's below the Video Homeshelf entry.
Is this possible and if yes how can I do this?

After setting up this skin it instantly became my favourite. Thanks developers!
The only thing that I found disappointing is not being able to use the shelf with smart playlists on the home menu. I know it's been mentioned previously, but I just wanted to add my voice to the request, since I really, really like the home shelf functionality. I think Amber has by far the best implementation of this type of feature (at least with the generic TV and Movie libraries).
In my case, I have the following six smart playlists listed as items on my home screen (and very few other items):
1) TV (excludes anime series)
2) Movies (excludes documentaries, foreign films and anime movies)
3) Documentaries (only)
4) Foreign Films (only)
5) Anime Series (excludes non-anime series such as regular TV)
6) Anime Movies (only)
With 480 movies and almost 6,000 episodes, you can see why I would want to break down my library into categories like this. It would be great to be able to see the recently added, recommended and random titles show up on the home screen when pointing to each of these playlists. The addition of this feature would make this already great skin perfect for me.
Thanks for listening.
PS: Another previously mentioned request (that I would also like to see) is to have the weather show up in the corner for every home screen instead of just on the weather screen, since that's all I really need from that screen.

CodecInfo "O" shortcut doesn't work for media playing via addons, but does work for local videos. Anyone else with same issue? Works in confluence just fine but not in Amber
Nevermind: Needed a restart of kodi. Mystery as to why only the Codecinfo shortcut stopped working prior to it!
