The Favourites Menu

As of build 8693 (30-04-2007) the favourites menu has been greatly enhanced.
You can access the 'Favourites' menu either by selecting the blue icon in the lower right corner of The Home Screen, or by selecting the Favourites icon in the the Shutdown Menu.
You bring up the Shutdown menu by pressing down on the File:Btn thumb r.png analog thumbstick anywhere within XBMC.
You can add any of your favourite programs, pictures, videos, music, files or scripts to the favourites menu. This can be achieved by one of two means:

  • By calling up the context menu (by pressing the White button or Title on the remote) and selecting the Add to Favourites option.
  • By creating and/or editing Favourites.xml in The UserData Folder


Example

Here is how simple favourites.xml file looks like with SVN Repo Installed plugin entry (you need to have installed SVN Repo Installed plugin previously):

  • <favourite name="SVN Repo Installer" thumb="special://home/plugins/programs/SVN Repo Installer/default.tbn">ActivateWindow(10001,plugin://programs/SVN Repo Installer/)</favourite>
