Hi all

Got my XBMC working really well at the moment, so i'm just trying to fine tune everything.

In my Videos & Movies options i've gone for View Mode DVD Case. I'm a bug fan of fanart, so i'd like to be able to see a bot more than what's currently being displayed. Ideally i'd like to do 3 things, and i'm wondering if any or all of these are possible:

Can i hide the banner across the top of the screen, the one that currently displays how many movies are in the current option, with the date and time in top right hand corner?

Can i hide or reduce the size of all the furniture across the bottom of the screen, the information that contains the movie name, aspect ratio sound output?

Can i reduce the size of, and lower the Dvd cases?

Any help is really appreciated. Thanks!

Not through any settings, but you could play with the xml files(be warned, there are many).

Ermmmm, i'll skip that thanks.

Whereabouts in settings is the top bar customiser? I couldn't see it in either Appearance or in the Skin options.

If you're a big on fanart then try landscape single-logo for movies. It may be a bit more to you're liking Wink

Thanks but how do i enable this? Is this an add-on, alternative skin, or customisation?

Thanks.

Turned it on, but it's not what i wanted, as i'd ideally like the dvd case covers and the fanart. This gives me the fanart twice.

Did you enable single-logo?

Turns it into one big dynamic piece of artwork Big Grin

Did you try 'Big Fan' view? large fanart view, and still shows the boxart as well
