So uninstalling the xbmc intro movie addon doesn't stop nox from trying to play the video at startup
of course it does. no addon = no intro video.
True no video plays but the skin still tries to play one.

When Nox starts you will see a spinning animation that plays while the recently added and other scripts load. Is this what you are seeing? If so it has nothing to do with the intro addon.

just tested, eveything workin here.

Thanks for your help Phil.
If you're talking about the button with the gear icon on my screeshot below, the problem is that I can't acces the corresponding menu.
The button is inactive as I press enter. I guess it is supposed to be active isn't it ?
The Visualization Presets button (eye icon) leads me to a blank screen :
And the Audio Visualization button shows that I have no visualisation plugin activated
Really appreciate the time you dedicate to my issue.

I edited my previous postwith more screeshots but you answer quicker ;-)
About the radio button, I tried it before but gave it another shot
With those settings :
Here is the result :
Un-checking the radio button called "Flip CD Cover to show artist slideshow" I have at least the cover of the album and the corresponding CDart but still a blanck square area next to the Artist Info.

Sorry, as English in not my mother tongue, sometimes I have trouble in understanding.
I though you were talking about radioboxes that I accessed while pressing the m button.
Does the artist slideshow plugin settings you're talking about are the fallowing ones ?
Uploaded with ImageShack.us
I tried checking all the radio-buttons and it does give a better result.
I set a fallback folder
It doesn't help.
Thanks for your patience mate

I have a somewhat similar issue. I've created a playlist which only has unwatched episodes. Next, I'm trying to add a custom main menu item - just like the screenshots above. I can choose a widget, but when I select the 'Latest episodes' widget, the widget will show the regular latest episodes, which sounds just fine, but I would like to have the widget show the episodes from the playlist - as in: the episodes that are unwatched...
Hope this makes sense
By the way; after spending time with other skins, I truly believe Nox 3.0 is by far the best in customization without all the hassle; it just works and all options are available where you'd expect them. So really: great work!

After installation new widgets will pop up for custom menu items.

Debug log will tell whats wrong and if its something we can fix in the skin.

you´re probably not using the latest GIT version. i think i fixed almost every bug concerning custom items yesterday.
