I just upgraded my XBMC from 3.5.1 to 3.5.3. I did this by loading up UnleashX which I have installed as an app as XBMC is my default dashboard. I then FTP'd to my Xbox and changed the name of the XBMC folder in my E Drive to "XBMC_Old". I then copied over the 3.5.3 XBMC folder. I rebooted my Xbox and it shows I have the new version. However, when setting things up, I noticed that I can't add a source for the Apps, Emulators, or Games subcategories under Programs. All of these are just blank. I had no problem doing this with XBMC 3.5.1. When I reversed the process and downgraded back to 3.5.1, the problem is still there. I'm not sure how to fix this.

Music is fine. So are videos.

My version is 3.5.3

Only temporary fix I can figure out is adding the source folder to my favorite.

Ok, thank you very much! Sorry for the double post about it. I finally got it to work. Even when I selected just Programs, I guess my Xbox was just struggling a bit b/c it wasn't loading anything in the window. Really glad weather works now too! Great work!BuZz wrote:I already answered this in the other thread you posted in.

Re: [Solved] "Add Source" missing from XBMC 3.5.3
probably because you had already gone to one of the subsections first. you have to go to programs before anything else. (because by default it takes you to the last visited or so)
Re: [Solved] "Add Source" missing from XBMC 3.5.3
I also noticed this a long time ago. In my opinion also from this view one should have 'add source' and the orther standard entries.
But since there is a way to add a source it's not very important to fix it quickly but a fix would be appreciated of course
