OSMC Home Screen Setup

To me this sounds unnecessarily complicated, but maybe I am missing something?
Do you want to add e.g. a folder on your network share (that is added as a source) to the home screen?
Then just do this:

  1. Browse to the folder (under videos/files)
  2. Highlight folder and Context menu; Add to favourites
  3. Go to Settings/Appearance/Skin-Settings
  4. Customise Home Menu
  5. Choose Add
  6. Choose Shortcut; choose Favourite and the folder you previously added to Favourites

As Hithcher mentioned, if you d this you will also see what the command should be.

Personally I use smart playlists for such things instead, but sometimes it´s not optimal.
