@boppyman : I have try to mod Layout panel widget.

Look good with BR/DVD cases :



But it's not OK with Clear case with side logo :



If I resize cases and posters to feet both cases, layout panel won't be very beautiful because posters will be to small and not centered.

So, sorry, but I won't include this kind of work in my mod.

If someone else is intersted by this feature, here is the modified code (Includes_WidgetLayout.xml) :

Code:

<itemlayout width="228" height="340" condition="Substring(Control.GetLabel(4321),panelcoverposter)">

[boppyman]

Thanks mate

Where about's do i add this code in to Includes_WidgetLayout.xml?

[mikebzh44]

Just a small mockup on Gimp with clear case with side logo :



As you can see, for keeping Aspect Ratio, cases and posters have to be smaller and widget is too hight :S

In Includes_WidgetLayout.xml, go to line 4850, select lines 4850 to 4886 and replace it by the code given in my previous post.

[boppyman]

Sorry didn't see this

Thanks for trying to get it working

Hi Mike,

I'm trying to implement this as I only use BR/DVD cases

Unfortunate is shows all cases as HD, and doesn't show cases for 3D, DVD etc., so I've tried to modify this line

Code:

<texture background="true">thumbs/boxes/$VAR[ShowcaseCasePathVar]/1080p.png</texture>

to this, but with no luck.

Code:

<texture background="true">thumbs/boxes/$VAR[ShowcaseCasePathVar]/$VAR[ShowcaseCase0Var]</texture>

I think it's not picking up the $VAR[ShowcaseCase0Var] value.

Unfortunate I'm a noob at coding for XBMC and have to rely on the pro's

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

[mikebzh44]

Try :

Code:

<texture background="true">thumbs/boxes/$VAR[ShowcaseCasePathVar]/$VAR[GlobalCaseVar]</texture>

[Wulfsige]

Thanks Mike, now it's showing the cover for box sets, at least we are moving in the right direction

I've also tried adding:

Code:

<include>MovieShowcaseDVDCoverVars</include>

before

Code:

<texture background="true">thumbs/boxes/$VAR[ShowcaseCasePathVar]/$VAR[GlobalCaseVar]</texture>

hoping that it may help, but then I get no image

[mikebzh44]

With

Code:

<texture background="true">thumbs/boxes/$VAR[ShowcaseCasePathVar]/$INFO[ListItem.Property(VideoResolution)]p.png</texture>

It's OK for default movie menu (sorry, I have only HD movies ) :



And for custom menu based on smart playlists :

[Wulfsige]

Thanks Mike for you prompt input, I really appreciate it

It's showing HD movies fine, don't have SD so can't check.

I only have 1 request left, it's to show the cover for 3D movies, is that possible as I presume the cover doesn't have "VideoResolution"p.png, but is 3d.png

[mikebzh44]

Yes but I don't know how to do it :

That why using $VAR[GlobalCaseVar] could be useful because this variable already test for 3D in filename :

Variables.xml :

Code:

<variable name="GlobalCaseVar">
    <value condition="SubString(ListItem.Filename,.3D.)">3d.png</value>
    <value>$INFO[ListItem.VideoResolution]p.png</value>
</variable>

I have try by defining 2 cases and add visible option :

Code:

<control type="image">
                        <posx>-32</posx>
                        <posy>4</posy>
                        <width>265</width>
                        <height>350</height>
                        <aspectratio>stretch</aspectratio>
                        <texture background="true">thumbs/boxes/$VAR[ShowcaseCasePathVar]/3d.png</texture>
                        <visible>SubString($INFO[ListItem.Property(Filename)],.3d.)</visible>
                    </control>
                    <control type="image">
                        <posx>-32</posx>
                        <posy>4</posy>
                        <width>265</width>
                        <height>350</height>
                        <aspectratio>stretch</aspectratio>
                        <texture background="true">thumbs/boxes/$VAR[ShowcaseCasePathVar]/$INFO[ListItem.Property(VideoResolution)]p.png</texture>
                        <visible>!SubString($INFO[ListItem.Property(Filename)],.3d.)</visible>
                    </control>

But I have tested several conditions without finding one to display 3D case

<visible>!SubString($INFO[ListItem.Property(Filename)],.3d.)</visible>
<visible>!SubString(ListItem.Property(Filename),.3d.)</visible>

As Phil or Big_Noid are not posting for a while, you have to wait for another skilled skinner

---

OK, get it.

As script.skin.widget return 3d as video resolution :

Code:

if '3d' in filename:
        info['videoresolution'] = '3d'

Just use the same code for DVD/BD case and copy 3d.png case and renamed it 3dp.png in Aeon Nox media\thumbs\boxes\tvshows subfolder :



So now, you can enjoy havig your 3D movies :

---

Should work for smart playlists too as the script return 3d as resolution.

[Eisi2005]

@mike

sorry for asking but could you explain where the code and which code must placed ? The last post are a little confused

Thanks

Eisi

[Wulfsige]

@mike, you are a legend It's working like a dream

@ Eisi - Follow these steps.

1. Download Aeon Nox BD-DVD-3D Mod.zip from here (Sorry can't seem to attach it here ) : http://www.multiupload.nl/5211U8GQAJ
2. Extract it to your %appdata%\XBMC\addons\skin.aeon.nox folder overwriting everything.

That's it, all thanks to mikebzh44
