[QUOTE="ap90033, post: 727619, member: 112144"] Well first of all Steamed MP is AWESOME, now that we have that out of the way, to get menus setup you have to go into Basic Home Editor and the Tabs BasicHome Design and Default Background are the main ones you want to mess with. As an Example, I added the plugin to show local Movies playing at a theater near me and wanted it to show on the home page. So I went to BasicHome Design and under items availalbe selected the SHOWTIMES from the dropdown, then selected from Items Available list the Show TimesGUI. Then I picked lable CHECK and put for Item Name SHOWTIMES, now for Background image you have several options, easiest is to select 3D Backgrounds and make sure Disable Background Sharing for this item is CHECKED. then under the Default Backgrounds Tab look for SHOWTIMES and select the background you like. then Select the BIG GENERATE MENU BUTTON at the top Left. and if you launch Media Portal it is now there! You will have to play with it a little like I did , I set up a menu item, launched media portal then saw something i didnt like about it and exited MP and tweaked until i had it like i liked it.... Make sense? :D [/QUOTE]
