Title: add Video shortcuts to Home screen
Post by: Q5Pro_noob on January 03, 2018, 02:42:07 AM

Hi, just got my 1st Android TV box (Q5 Pro) and I am still on the bottom end of the learning curve

I have my video folders defined as shortcuts in Media Center. However, I would like to add these shortcuts to the Main Home Screen whenever I power up the Q5Pro.
Any advice how to do this?

TIA

Unfortunately not possible.

You could replace the launcher itself with another launcher or have an app set to run on startup.

* How to make Kodi (or other app) launch on startup? Go to 'My Apps' from home screen, navigate to the app you want to auto-start, and press menu button on remote. The option to 'Default start' will appear over app icon.

* Change default launcher? In some firmwares you cannot change default launcher. There are two solutions: 1. http://www.futeko.com/newforum/index.php?topic=711.msg13152#msg13152 2. Install one of the CS custom firmwares, where launcher can be changed: http://www.futeko.com/newforum/index.php?topic=812.0
