thx for the mod! I was missing the default label for tv shows
How easy would it be to tweak your mode to achieve the following:
1) have a single logo (maybe bigger) instead of 3
2) lower the floor in order to have more of the fanart show
I could edit the basic skin but I'd really like the label as well (which is missing from vanilla AN 5)
Thanks in advance
I'm not a coder, so it would be quite a bit of work for me to find the relevant code and edit it. However, your mod wouldn't be that difficult to achieve. I noticed someone got you started in another thread by showing you how to isolate the single logo with a single line of code in View_59_Logo.xml. That's half the battle.
To include the label, you would have to first import the mod in this thread and then edit View_59_Logo.xml as per mikebzh44's instructions. The label is included in MyVideoNav.xml. Instructions on how to include the label alone are included in this thread. So you could edit MyVideoNav.xml yourself and exclude the rest of the mod if you desire. I suggest using Notepad++. In MyVideoNav.xml, you might also want to find the string "IMDb" and replace it with "TVDB" (don't change the spacing!). TV shows ratings are from the TVDB not IMDb. I didn't realize this until recently.
After that, all that would remain is finding the code related to the floor shadow and deleting it. This should be one .png file and nothing more. If you can't find the relevant .png shadow, you might have to make a request in a thread if you get that far. Taking a screenshot and explaining your progress usually gets results. I'm sure someone would help you out. That's how the views I've created have been completed.
When you're finished, I'd encourage you to share your view with others. Package the edited MyVideoNav.xml and View_59_Logo.xml together in a zip file. There is always someone like you who wants a certain view.
