    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.
    It would be enough, if the editor is able to configure the menus- and submenus-Links.
    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, please check the yellow box (almost bottom of the page) about deleting recordings in the wiki. It’s possible to delete recordings, if access is guaranted. I’m not sure which connection problems you have. Normally the client is directly connected to the server on startup. In case you feel it’s too long, please describe the issue...
