[QUOTE="Dadeo, post: 874550, member: 27204"] hi thoth - topbar only displays when you move your mouse to the top of the screen. Do you mean when you do that it still does not display? If so, check if the Topbar plugin is enabled in MP Configuration > Plugins (it normally is enabled by default) About Basic Home editor - all the items in the drop down menu (when you are choosing a menu/item) are valid plugins (only the ones you have installed and enabled), EXCEPT Games and More, although you can select a hyperlink. even for those in Advanced options if you wish. A hyperlink is just the window ID, which you can usually find in the skin xml file at the top. However, you don't have to do that - the Editor normally inserts the hyperlink and text label for you when you select a window/plugin from the drop down list. The Advanced Settings are there in case you wish to customize even more. So yes you can change the name that displays for any Menu/item by entering whatever you wish in the Label/ID field in Advanced Settings for the Menu/item. That is all documented in the wiki, is it really that unclear? :( Music is installed with MediaPortal. As long as you did not disable it in MP Configuration > Plugins it should work. If you go to the Classic Home screen (press H on keyboard, or usually green key on remote) and select Music does it work from there? Note that 'Music' is the MP Music feature, while 'Music Menu' is aMPed's music menu - usually used with Vintage Basic Home layout but can be used in revaMPed as well. It is enabled by default. If you still have trouble, attach the BasicHome.xml of your mod and I can take a look and maybe figure out why it isn't working. EDIT: I should add that IF you select an item that is not a plugin (like Games or More) it will display in Blue text in the main Editor window once you add it, so you will always know if a Menu item does not link to a window/plugin.
