Trailers - m.savazzi - 2009-07-23

with the latest version of EMM I downloaded quite some trailers.

Is there any way to see them with Transparency?

Uhm, I just opened the album information dialog and clicked on get fanart or something...

just as in other skins, bring up the movie info window and select trailer.
the next release will also have a trailer icon in the fanart view that will play the trailer in a preview window.

do a search for <include name="EpisodeFanartView">
and remove this part just below it (at line 397):
Code:
<control type="image">
    <posx>320</posx>
    <posy>0</posy>
    <width>30</width>
    <height>30</height>
    <aspectratio>keep</aspectratio>
    <texture>$INFO[ListItem.Overlay]</texture>
</control>

remove the same section at line 437, 569 and 609.




That would be ViewsFileMode.xml, at line 1285 remove this part:
Code:
<control type="label">
    <description>Rating txt</description>
    <posx>785</posx>
    <posy>75</posy>
    <width>140</width>
    <height>25</height>
    <label>$LOCALIZE[563]:</label>
    <align>right</align>
    <aligny>center</aligny>
    <font>font11</font>
    <textcolor>grey2</textcolor>
</control>
<control type="image">
    <description>Rating value</description>
    <posx>795</posx>
    <posy>73</posy>
    <width>150</width>
    <height>30</height>
    <texture>$INFO[Listitem.StarRating]</texture>
</control>




That's the easy one! Just wait a couple of days and i'll release a new version of Transparency! which will have a proper Media Info view for MusicVideos. ;-)

Hi I presume this has changed in 0.27? Where can I find it now as not keen on the watched flags myself, would be even nice to have an option to remove the flag in skin menu Wink


- nemulate - 2009-07-23

Sorry I also meant to say what a great skin this is, having tried the others this is definately my favourite Wink

nemulate Wrote:Hi I presume this has changed in 0.27?

nope, those are the instructions for v0.27 :-)

nemulate Wrote:would be even nice to have an option to remove the flag in skin menu Wink

yeah, i guess so....
but i'm sure somebody else would want the watched flags only for episodes and not for movies,
the next one wants them for episodes and movies but not at season and tv show level,
and there's definitely got to be a person who only wants a watched flag and no unwatched flag.....and so on.

i wasn't planning on making every single pixel in the skin user-configurable, so there has to be a limit somewhere.

i think i like the idea of having a general on/off option, but i'll have to give it some thought.
anyway, thanx for the suggestion ;-)

Ronnie,

I am having the lock problem due to browsing (outside of libray mode). I have read through all 54 pages of this thread and can see where you mentioned putting an option in to fix it, but I could not find an option or figure out how to disable this for a windows share.

Can you post the solution or workaround?

Thanks

The option is sadly still on the todo list. The problem is no one seems to be really sure whether it's an xbmc issue,
a windows issue or it might as well be due to my fanart hacks to support fanart in filemode for music.

I'm not sure if your experiencing this on an xbox ?
If so, check these threads:
http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid=53288
http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid=54307

Another suggestion i've read somewhere was to go to Settings > Network > SMB Client
and enter your username and password there.
And also maybe check the option 'Mount SMB Shares'....

Let me know if any of this fixes the issue.

Share is on windows XP, problem is from an XBOX. I have tried the account setup. I have been using SMB with XBMC for a very long time through several issues and this is a new one.

It is not network, it is not firewall. There is a memory leak which hangs the box well before it is able to time out. Something the script or XBMC is doing. Client never really even pings the windows machine. All video, picture, and movies work fine and they are all through the same set of shares, same machine.

hi ronnie,

just a quick question... how do I set my videos to have the library view as default? The music section goes straight into library and the videos are defaulted to "file view" and I cant find where to change this.


Thanks for the great skin Smile

if you want a quick workaround, open MyMusicSongs.xml and remove all the 'dirty hacks' Transparency! uses to show Music fanart in filemode:

i'll post a new version of Transparency! later today.
It will take you to the library mode by default.

There's an option in Skin Settings > Home Window > Videos Menu - Use file Mode
to alter this behaviour.

Sorry I only asked as I couldn't find it in that xml file as quoted! I think it would be cool to have a global switch to turn off the watched flag indicator but then of course I'd say that as it was my idea!!!! :p
