Hi there.

I'm trying to change the main UnleasX menu so I can launch XBMC directly from the main menu. I tried adding another menu entry like this:

Code:

      <Item Action="LaunchDVD">Launch DVD</Item>
      <List Text="Games" Sort="On" Auto="On" DelayLoad="True">
         <Path>F:\Games</Path>
         <Path>F:\HDDLoader</Path>
      </List>
      <List Text="Applications" Sort="On" Auto="On">
         <Path>F:\Apps</Path>
      </List>
      <List Text="XBMC" Sort="On" Auto="On">
         <Path>F:\Apps\XBMC</Path>
      </List>
      <List Text="Emulators" Sort="On" Auto="On">
         <Path>F:\Emulators</Path>
      </List>


This added an XBMC entry, but when selected, it makes me choose Xbox Media Center from the submenu. What I'm trying to do is launch the app directly from the main menu (like you can with Launch DVD).

Any ideas?

Thanks

DrMarvin

well the fastest way I know how to do it is to first get AID and install xselect from it into the drive withyour apps. once you do that, d/l XBMC to E drive. Then reboot and press up on d-pad to access it. Then do a search on dashes and when it is done searching set xbmc as your defualt and unleashx as a secondary. Then you'll can load dash and it will be done.

I'm not sure that I was clear, then.

I'm not trying to install XBMC as my dash. Just as an option in the main menu, without having to select it again from a submenu.

Thanks

lol sorry. thought you meant you wanted it as main dash. So are trying to edit the unleashx itself to show the xbmc in unleashx or to show up like in the apps. just to be clear.

I'm trying to make it an option in the main menu.

ex.

Launch DVD
Games
Emulators
Apps
XMBC
Settings

Now, when you select "Launch DVD", it goes ahead and does it, but when you go to "Games", it goes to a submenu. With the way I tried coding it for XBMC, it goes to a submenu, and then I have to select "XBox Media Center". I want to just select it from the main menu and for it to load.

I tried :

Code:

      <List Text="XBMC" Sort="On" Auto="On">
         <Path>F:\Apps\XBMC\default.xbe</Path>
      </List>


But this gives you an empty submenu.

Thanks for your input.

DrMarvin

Thanks very much. I was thinking about doing that, but I never tried the <item> idea.
