Use "Home Video" to create a Virtual TV Channel


Recommended Posts

When I try to create a channel of Home Videos (Library type: Home Video & Photos).   When I try to create a channel and select either media type Movie or Mixed, the paths to the Home Video Library doesn't show to be selected.   Only the Path to my Main Movie Library and my DVR show.

Can I do this?  If so how?

Hi, did you try typing the path in manually?

I don't see anywhere to manually provide a path.  The Paths provided and are changed based on the selection of "Channel Content Type" and only show my Movie, TV Show, or both paths as defined by the Library Media type.   All my home videos are defined in a library with a type of "Home Video & Photos".   

Next Thought?

Can you please show a screenshot of what you are trying to do? Thanks.

I've attached 5 screenshots, 1 of which is the definition from my Library for Home Videos & Photos.   You can see that the path is not listed or available to select to create a Virtual TV Channel, and there is no ability to manually type in or select the path.

OK it looks like you are working with some kind of virtual channel plugin. I would suggest posting this question in the dedicated topic for the plugin to ensure that the developer will see it. Thanks !
