Adding Activities to the MythTV Menu
The MythTV Menus are simply .xml files which can easily be edited. This example assumes the path structure of the KnoppMyth platform.
Adding to the Main MythTV Menu
In KnoppMyth the MythTV Main Menu configuration file is located at:
/usr/share/mythtv/mainmenu.xml
An LIRC Config activity, like "Watch HD DVD", can be triggered from the MythTV menu by adding an XML stanza similar to this:
<button>
<text>Watch Blu-Ray Disc Direct</text>
<type>MENU_OPTICAL_DISKS</type>
<action>EXEC /lircconfig/scripts/activity-startup-29.sh</action>
</button>
Simply enter the activity start-up script which the download page tells you corresponds with the activity to be started.
To return control focus back to MythTV, simply press the button you defined in your Activity Configuration's "How to Exit this Activity Mode".
