XMBML Functions

host Functions

host functions enable you to see folders and files on the filesystem.

host://localhost/

No function, direct. Using direct paths to the filesystem. Usage example:

<Query class="type:x-xmb/folder-pixmap" key="host_hdd0" src="host://localhost/dev_hdd0/game"/>

FileSystem Paths Examples

USB Port 1 Disk	host://localhost/dev_usb001
USB Port 2 Disk	host://localhost/dev_usb002
USB Port 3 Disk	host://localhost/dev_usb003
USB Port 4 Disk	host://localhost/dev_usb004
USB Port 5 Disk	host://localhost/dev_usb005
USB Port 6 Disk	host://localhost/dev_usb006
USB Port 7 Disk	host://localhost/dev_usb007

host://localhost/q?

Querys the filesystem with parameters to filter or identify contents. Usage example:

<Query class="type:x-xmb/xmlpackagefolder" key="host_provider_usb0" src="host://localhost/q?path=/dev_usb000&suffix=.pkg&subclass=x-host/package" />
