arrbee99 1683 Posted August 6, 2023 Posted August 6, 2023 Just wondering if anyone might know how to have an item for Documentaries in the Kodi main list, or whatever its called, where you can have things like Movies, TV Shows, Music etc. Would it have something to do with Smart Playlists and Paths or something ? In Emby I have 8 folders as a source for Docos. Do they get used or do I just set a Path (or something else) to Emby, or EmbyNextGen, or....
arrbee99 1683 Posted August 6, 2023 Author Posted August 6, 2023 Ok, Genres of type Documentary seems to work, not unexpectedly I suppose...
arrbee99 1683 Posted August 6, 2023 Author Posted August 6, 2023 Or maybe I can just edit the Main Menu list. Nope, need a special skin for that. Gordon Bennett.
js28194 27 Posted August 28, 2024 Posted August 28, 2024 (edited) I use AEON MQ 8, and documentaries is in the main menu when you customize main menu and manually add it. As a video node and traverse down to your emby library that is setup as documentaries. The only downside to this is that single documentaries grab their metadata as movies, whereas shows grab their metadata as tv shows, so single show's also end up in the Movies section. As do WWE and UFC. They are both seperate libraries in EMBY, scrapped as movies, but end up in the default movies library in Kodi. Edited August 28, 2024 by js28194
