Adding a new button to main screen on PM3?

slewis1973 · 2008-12-19, 22:28

HI

I love PM3 but would love to add a new button called "kids Movies" to the front screen that will link in with a smb share on a server.

Can anyone help on where to edit the home.xml file as when I have tried, I have nearly knocked over xbmc all together from loading.

Cheers

Scott

Hi,

I've swapped the Programs folder to My Movies, which sounds similar to what you want to do. This page was helpful: http://xbmc.org/forum/showthread.php...ht=home&page=3

Not entirely sure on how to link to the shared folder though.
