The osd when adjusting audio and subtitle offsets was covering most of the screen so I implemented the SliderDialog.xml that is in XBMC SVN. The mod consists two modified files and two new files.

Modded file #1 VideoOSDSettings.xml add

PHP Code:

<control type="group">
    <animation effect="fade" start="100" end="0" time="200" condition="Window.IsVisible(SliderDialog)">conditional</animation> 


right before the code (which should be around line 12)

PHP Code:

    <control type="image">
        <description>Panel</description> 


and

PHP Code:

</control> 


right before

PHP Code:

</controls>
</window> 


at the end of the file.



Modded file #2 VideoOSD.xml line 11 changed from

PHP Code:

        <visible>!Window.IsActive(125)</visible> 


to

PHP Code:

        <visible>!Window.IsActive(125) + !Window.IsVisible(SliderDialog)</visible> 


Added file #1 DialogSlider.xml in the 720p Directory

PHP Code:

<window id="145">
    <defaultcontrol>11</defaultcontrol>
    <animation effect="fade" time="200">WindowOpen</animation>
    <animation effect="fade" time="200">WindowClose</animation>
    <coordinates>
        <system>1</system>
        <posx>235</posx>
        <posy>450</posy>
    </coordinates>
    <controls>    
        <include>Dialogs_Group</include>
        <include>Dialogs_Tablet</include>

        <control type="image">
            <posx>6</posx>
            <posy>4</posy>
            <width>81</width>
            <height>82</height>
            <texture>dialogs/delay.png</texture>
        </control>
        
        <control type="label" id="10">
            <description>Dialog header</description>
            <include>Dialogs_Label1</include>
            <aligny>center</aligny>
        </control>
        <control type="label" id="12">

            <posy>26</posy>    
            <align>center</align>

Added file #2 delay.png in the media/dialogs directory.

Can you provide any screenshots as I don't really understand what exactly you modded.

I think this the feature that hides the big menu and just shows the slider you're using so as to not cover up the video.
Mind if I add this to my mod?

For anyone having as little knowledge as me concerning this SliderDialog check this: http://xbmc.org/jmarshall/2009/05/11/eas...-settings/

No problem, go right ahead

The slider dialog is nice but not very user friendly if you see to the navigation.

Is it possible to activate the slider by hitting right and left? Now it only pops up when hitting SELECT and that is quite annoying imo.

Can it be done in skinning or does it have to be patched in XBMC?


EDIT: I have made some progress. I added

Code:

                <onright>XBMC.ActivateWindow(SliderDialog)</onright>
                <onleft>XBMC.ActivateWindow(SliderDialog)</onleft>

to

Code:

<control type="button" id="7">

It opens the Slider but not with the correct values. It's just empty. And of course it opens slider dialog if I hit right and left on the "browse for subtitles" button.

I started a discussion about it in skin help.

Doesn't seem to be that easy.
