Any way of adding scripts like youtube etc to the Home Page menus??

[BadBoy House]

i dont know if i'm doing it right at the minute but when i want to activate a script, eg. youtube or google video I go to the icon in the bottom right of the main page, then go through the loading scripts process.

is there any way of adding the scripts to say the my programs folder on the main page? the process of loading them via the bottom right icon each time seems long winded.

you can do it in tons of ways. map it to a key. add a button anywhere in the skin. use a http server command, and ftp site command, +++.

read the manual again. search for 'built in functions', specifically xbmc.runscript(..) (to run a script directly) or xbmc.activatewindow(..) to open the script window.

you can also add/replace one of the home screen buttons. there's a tutorial for that in the manual (probably not aimed at what u want but you'll get the idea - it's probably related to replacing the my programs button and/or the weather button - can't recall atm).
