    Hello,
    Is there a way to extend the menu in the basic home?
    I'd like to have a play disk item within the video menu

    It's a pity, I too would be very happy if there is an Basic-Home-editor for the default skin, because i find the skin really great.
    It would be enough, if the editor is able to configure the menus- and submenus-Links.
    Is an editor planned for the future?

    Hi.

    Just changing the hyperlinks and the labels is no big deal. Should be possible to nearly everyone with a little PC knowledge. Wiki is a good way to start. Grab yourself Notepad and a copy!!!!!! of basichome.xml and there you go.

    Hello,
    I tried to edit the menus- and submenus-Links. But without success. There are some places where I may edit. But I don't know, which of them I may edit. Also are there methods, which I don't know.
    Is there an manual or a tutorial, how I can edit a basic-home-menu.
    Ciao
    Thomas

    Hi This is a general question about OnX. I have been using the TvWishList plugin for a while and have recently updated (update install) from MP 1.36 x86 to 1.37 x86 and found there seemed to be no Onx menu in the TV guide. I then configured the onx.presets.xml file like I would normally do with updates or fresh installs, but still...
