Favourites

Introduction

Favourites is a simple but useful feature that allows you to gather a selection of different items into one easily accessible location on the Main Menu. It allows quick access to commonly used items.

As an example, the following items can be sent to the Favourites listing:

	Add-ons	Pictures
	Playlists	Movies from the library
	TV Shows and episodes from the library	Music & Video Sources
	Music- Artists, Albums and Songs	Individual Files

...and a lot more. Not sure what can be added? Then highlight the item and check if there is an Add to favourites option in the Context Menu.

Adding to Favourites

Items are added to Favourites through the use of the Context Menu.

After highlighting an item (eg a movie) the Context Menu can be invoked by:

• long press the OK key on your remote control
• Press letter C on a keyboard
• right-clicking with the mouse

Then select Add to favourites as shown in the image.
