Yeah, that's about what I have been doing, Basically change folders for home videos, misc videos, etc... through Myvideos
but it is computer like, not the feel of a Home Theater. (Love the software don't get my wrong):)
I was thinking if it could be in likeness of: Moving Pictures or MP-TVSeries.

But just a thought.(y)

    Can, create NFOs for each file, make a cover, and import into the database. The media portal can not come up with information about your home videos.

    create NFOs for each file, make a cover
    FYI, this can be done with MKV-Buddy automatically. It generates poster and background from screenshots with custom design and .nfo files based on the folder (the folder- name is used as genre so you can prepare various different genres of "not categorized" videos at once) and the metadata of the videos. That's how I import my home videos into MP. A sample how this can look:
    Zwischenablage-2.jpg

    Ok, this is a look from MP2 but with Moving Pictures or MyVideos a similar result can be reached in MP1 too.

    I do not know why this xml was in my theme folders, it must have sneaked in some time ago (years?). I simply removed the file. The Latest Media Handler plugin seems to be working as expected. I've had no lock-ups.

    Are different people taking turns watching the same thing on the same HTPC? For me, separating users in MP2 is a drawback, as is the interface. Simply put, this can't be done in MP1, or rather, it can't be done quickly, because everything would have to be rewritten. But if each user logs in with their own Windows account, MP1 can...
