[MOD] Now Playing Full Screen Info / Seekbar - Pr.Sinister - 2009-05-10 Hi there... Well after taking a look at Hitcher's mod, i decided to try and add an image to it and when that worked, i felt like modifying a few more things. Please bear in mind that this is my very 1st attempt at XML so i may have done some things wrong... Here are the screenshots when you press "Info" while watching a video Watching a Movie from the Library : Watching a TV Show from the Library (Square Thumb) : Watching a TV Show from the Library (Wide Thumb) : Watching a video in files mode (not in library) : The changed files are available here : http://www.mediafire.com/?300hrdnygai Please note that the Thumbnail is NOT displayed when only seeking - mojario - 2009-05-10 looks very nice - ethan_9219 - 2009-05-11 Great idea! But, i dunno, maybe it's just me...The thumbs/posters look a little out of place. Maybe have it just above the OSD bar. Maybe on the right-hand side? I dunno, i couldn't have modded it like this, so take my comments with a grain of salt - Pr.Sinister - 2009-05-11 ethan_9219 Wrote:Great idea! But, i dunno, maybe it's just me...The thumbs/posters look a little out of place. Thanks for the comments and of course everyone has their own preferences so i cannot take any criticism the wrong way. I remember loving that screen in the Vision skin and i guess that's why i just automatically positioned it there. From a design standpoint, aligning the image exactly to the top of the bar looks weird to me. Too much symmetry can be a bad thing in my opinion. Also, since we read from left to right, makes sense to me. Even djh's 1st screen in Aeon Stark has the thumb on the left. When you say you want the thumb on the right, do you mean like in the mod by LaTropa64 here : http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid=48713 ? - ethan_9219 - 2009-05-11 No, no...I prefer the way yours looks. After looking at LaTropa's mod, i DO prefer it on the left, i think. But, for me, it just doesn't look quite right... Great job, though...Like i said, i can't code or MOD or anything...So, dismiss whatever i say. - chris3g - 2009-05-11 thanks for this, much better than the default. i would like to perhaps make the movie poster just a bit smaller, is that by change an easy edit in one of the files? - Pr.Sinister - 2009-05-11 chris3g Wrote:thanks for this, much better than the default. i would like to perhaps make the movie poster just a bit smaller, is that by change an easy edit in one of the files? Yes it is very easy to do : In DialogFullScreenInfo.xml, Find : Code: <control type="image"> And change the width and height to your preference - Pr.Sinister - 2009-05-11 ethan_9219 Wrote:No, no...I prefer the way yours looks. After looking at LaTropa's mod, i DO prefer it on the left, i think. I was like you just a few days ago. I had never played with skinning before and some of those files just looked daunting. But after looking at hitcher's mod, it was pretty logical. That file is very small so it is really easy to understand. Combined with the Skinning section of the Wiki, it took me about 2 hours to make it look exactly like i wanted. Crucial sections of the wiki are : http://wiki.xbmc.org/?title=Skinning_XBMC http://wiki.xbmc.org/?title=InfoLabels http://wiki.xbmc.org/?title=List_of_Boolean_Conditions Anyway if you have any ideas of how you would like to make it look, i'd be glad to help. It'll help me familiarize myself with skinning and that way i can mod skins to fit my needs instead of begging someone to compromise their vision. -Pr. |
