Req Functionality: Home and Clean Library
#1
Hello,

Is it possible to add a Home function to the library view menu?
  • It would be nice to able return to the first movie in my collection with the click of a button rather than scrolling through all the pages.
  • A page Go To function would be nice. You would type the page number into the text field and voilà you go to that page in your library.
  • Could these features be added to the contextual menus?

Is it possible to add the Clean Library function to the library view menu?
  • The Update Library function is there but I don't understand why the Clean Library function isn't.
  • Why should I have to back out of my current library view and got to System to find the Clean Library function?

I am currently using the Aeon Nox: Silvo skin (latest version).

Thank you in advance for your time and consideration.

Kodi has this functionality already, map a remote button to perform the "Home" key press

recommended https://kodi.wiki/view/Add-on:Library_Watchdog for "Clean library after update" on this feature request https://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=374478 which is very similar

recommend raising some of these feature requests with the skin developer since they are not Kodi Core requests https://forum.kodi.tv/forumdisplay.php?fid=142

I used to have it in Estuary, but instead I removed it and went for a keyboard combination.

I added the following to the <global> section of the keyboard.xml file which allows me to use ctrl-shift c to run the Video clean library.
<c mod="ctrl,shift">CleanLibrary(video)</c>
I think this is easier and quicker than skinning views.

But, if you still want the left sideblade code, it follows. This is for Estuary, so you will need to figure out where to place it for Aeon Nox.
Edit MyVideoNav.xml and insert this on line 136...

xml:
<control type="togglebutton" id="620">
<description>Clean library</description>
<include>MediaMenuItemsCommon</include>
<label>Clean Library</label>
<onclick>CleanLibrary(video)</onclick>
<visible>!Container.Content(addons)+ String.IsEmpty(Container.PluginName)</visible>
<usealttexture>library.isscanningvideo</usealttexture>
</control>
