[QUOTE="Gigamight, post: 706620, member: 110392"] I am very new to Media Portal, so please bear with me. First off, yes, I have used the search button vigorously, but I am not certain what I am searching for. I am not offended with links to the answers I am looking for rather than explanations. Now, I have recently installed the most recent version of Media Portal. I am running on Windows 7. I am using StreamedMP. I want to make the menu system easy enough to use so that my 5 yr/old can use it too (he is pretty technically savvy, so it might happen). What I want to have is an option in the menu list for his movies and a separate one for mine. In other words, I will have "listen to music," "online," "Movies," "Kids Movies," etc etc... So I assume that I would need to make a menu option that will point to a separate folder or drive, but I don't know if I CAN do that, and if I can, how I can make it happen. I apologize if the question is a dumb one, but like I said, I am a noob and I'm not ashamed to admit it.
