Hey guys,
Absolutely love XBMC ever since the original Xbox and have recently returned to set it up on my HTPC. Aeon Nox 4.0 and its perfect for my TV Shows and Movies and looks amazing.
You probably know what I am going to ask here as it seems like some people have had similar problems but possibly not this exact one.
Smart Playlists seem simple, but they are driving me mad! I'm getting a little confused with them and would appreciate some help before I pull my hair out.
I have a "Fitness" folder and I want this to appear on the main menu screen. Its full of stuff like Insanity and P90x and other workouts.
I dont want them listed under movies or TV shows. The scrapers wont scrape them so I dont see the point. However am I right in thinking I cant have them in a library view? If so why not? Fitness and other specialist DVD's or Movies wont get scraped so I need to avoid using a scraper at all. I just need my video files in a library view that I can edit myself. Why am I not able to simply point a folder to a menu and it be as simple as that and avoid playlists completely. Didnt it work like this a few years ago? Im not complaining, I am just curious to resolve it with the easiest method.
All I want is for them to look in the style of my TV shows folder and then I can customize the art and stuff myself. I dont want them in the file mode view as they dont display correctly.
Is there anything I can do? If I set them as TV Shows, they get scraped with useless incorrect information and some warning message as seen http://forums.thetvdb.com/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=12628
I'd love for all my fitness stuff to be neat and tidy and would appreciate if someone could throw together a step by step guide starting from the very beginning if adding a source folder. Ive tried many different ways of getting it all to appear but it doesnt show correctly and file mode or whatever it is isnt really want I want to achieve.
The folder structure is Fitness > Insanity > then the loose video files.
Any help to resolve this would be fantastic and appreciated!![Blush]( "Blush")
