Hi I would like to know how I can change the time per image shows on home screen backgrounds. I have looked but can't find out how to do it.
I am using Hybid skin.

I basically want too create an animated background using multiple images in a folder.

Thanks to anyone that can help

Hi,

I have looked into <control type="multiimage"> the problem is i cant find where the code for the home screen background and what file it is in.

I am using hybrid skin and have looked in all the xml file included in it and cannot find were to put the code to change home backgrounds.

the only coding i have found for the backgrounds on the home screen is in the guisetting.xml file

<setting name="skin.hybrid.CustomBackgroundPath" type="string"/>
<setting name="skin.hybrid.homeitem.3.fanart" type="string">C:\Users\Home\Pictures\xbmc\ani\Music\</setting>

i do not now how to change this code to make it a multiimage so i can then set the speed each image is shown.

thanks for your help

Hello klumzie

I do not know how it works now animated gifs on kodi Helix.On previous versions, animated gifs did not work on best way.
I was unpacked gifs to .jpg or .png image, then I was used <control type="multiimage">
About the Hybrid skin, Hitcher has the right. Asking in the Hybrid forum the author of skin.

Best Regards
