Title: Play A Movie From Clicking On Icon?
Post by: 195 on June 16, 2004, 10:02:00 PM

I know how to get the imdb icon for movies.  What i would really like is to be able to hit A on the icon and have the movie start instead of having to go 2 levels farther in to play the movie.  How would i do that?

Thanks!  :)   <

With you Xbox connected to the internet "SCAN" the movie folder, then exit and re-enter the folder to see the icons.

To get the movies to show up w/o having to drill down in folders, merely set the defaultpath entry for the media type.

Sorry but maybe i need a little more help.  I would like all my ifo files listed in one folder, but obviously those files would have to be shortcuts.  How do i make a shortcut of the ifo file?  IF that isn't possible, how would i list ONLY the movies in one folder, and leave all the vbo files excluded?

THanks again  <
