Simple Question --- HELP PLEASE !!

[Darbour1]

Hi everyone,

I hope someone can help ?

I have been using Xlobby for the past few years.

I need to find a way to watch my recorded TV shows, using ZoomPlayer within Xlobby (HeavyMetal skin). Files are standard mpeg format and it works perfectly with ZoomPlayer.

I have setup a "Folder Browser" screen (ie. Xlobby Skin Editor/Screen/Add/Folder Browser). This approach ONLY works with the default path = Desktop.

If I use C:\TV or D:\ or anything else it shows the files, but I have no way to refresh these files ??

I cannot find a way to refresh this folder within Xlobby ??

If I exit Xlobby and go back in, the new files show up fine !!

The "Simplicity" skin has a "Folder Browser" example, but it uses the "Desktop folder". When you navigate on different hard drives, the file update works.

When I replace the word "Desktop" in the "Simplicity" skin to let say "C:\"

I see the files on the C: drive, but it does not refresh automatically when I navigate on different folders ???

Does anyone know of a way to update the "Folder Browser"? ex: add an event with a radio button to refresh a folder ?? OR another way to accomplish my goal ....

Your HELP would be much appreciated ....

u should create a databse for your recorded tv instead.I do not think there is a way to refresh like u want it to work.

just add a new screen with a new database and import your tvrecordings.


need more help let us know

Thanks very much for the info. I will try this ...

But I would really prefer to get the Folder Browser to work because I might use this feature for other type of files....

In the mean time, Is it possible that this is a BUG ??

Because the "Simplicity" skin "Folder Browser" example works fine with the default Windows "Desktop" folder ?? but it does not work if I put C:\ or D:\TV or anything else ??

I do not understand why the automatic refresh does not work when you browse hard drives ??

Steven do you have any idea what I should do to make this work ??
Thanks,Dan
