Here is what I am trying to do. I am trying to create three smart playlists and access them via the main menu. One each for: movies, TV shows, and Kids Shows. Here's how I went about setting them up.
For each of them, I created a multipath source as some of the content is on my HTPC and the rest is being served by my NAS.
Then I created a smart playlist for each of them using the rule of "Path is" and I point it to their multipath source(s). I also tried using the rule of "Path contains" as well.
Then I linked each to the main menu. It all seems to work as XBMC will let me do it. However, when I try to access my content from my new main menu items, it shows nothing. Not incomplete... nothing at all.
So after failing time and time again to set up this up the way I want it. I searched the forum and I found the video's on how to create smart playlists. But I didn't find anything on creating smart playlists using multipath sources. Now I am turning to the forum for extra help.
Maybe there is a tweak to my setup or even a better way?
