Any chance for some of the "Big Cirrus" mod's changes to make it upstream? I hate the visual changes they made, but I like the trailer icon and pressing right to start it on the movie list. And TvTunes support, though I didn't get that working when I tried it.

hi

great skin, is there a way i can change the options in the home menu TV Shows, Movies etc to Bold and Uppercase?

[smush420]

I agree with kb0501, is there any way to this? I find all of the included fonts very hard to read from far away. Other than this, the skin is absolutely amazing! Thanks

Have a read of the second post in this thread.

I did a down and dirty mod to the Music Viz so that current artist fanart shows in background with visualization on top. (hopefully I didn't break anything!)

Just backup your original MusicVisualisation.xml file and add this to its place.

Please take a look in the Readme to get things working.
The Normal XBMC Scraper isnt enough to get all what you need.
You still need to download banner images and widethumbs for Seasons.

Thanks for the mods Malexx. I did one change though regarding TVTunes so it didn't play the music visualization when entering a TV Show.

In the Include.xml there are only two lines to change

Line 38:

Code:

<visible>Player.HasVideo + !Skin.HasSetting(ShowBackgroundVideo)</visible>

to

Code:

<visible>Player.HasVideo + !Skin.HasSetting(ShowBackgroundVideo)+ !SubString(Window(10025).Property(TvTunesIsAlive),True)</visible>

Line 45:

Code:

<visible>Player.HasAudio + !Skin.HasSetting(ShowBackgroundVis)</visible>

to

Code:

<visible>Player.HasAudio + !Skin.HasSetting(ShowBackgroundVis)+ !SubString(Window(10025).Property(TvTunesIsAlive),True)</visible>

Thanks to you and Malexx!
One of the things I was missing from other skins I used...

[Malexx]

no problem,thx for editing,but on my side i havent had any music visualization,it just plays the theme sound when entering thshow.season level and episode level,and when playing an episode theme stopped.

Maybe its because i disabled all music related settings in XBMC and all skins,cause i dont listen music with xbmc.

Anyway Important thing it works for you.

Edit:
Download updated
Includet - includes.xml
for when using music visualisation settings it doenst show up in TV Section when playing themes.

Not sure if I understand... Music Visualization Mod was only for Music. When playing song and you choose to start visualization, then it shows current artist fanart + visualization on top of fanart. It will not change visualizations in other areas, like Home if you have set to show visualization if music playing.

I can make it do that but then have to modify Home.xml too.

I hope that makes sense

double post

[Malexx]

hi,i dont really understand,my english is pretty poor.

Your Problem was,when entering a TVShow and the TV Theme starts then it shows current artist fanart + visualization on top of fanart
Is this right?
So our goal is not to play music visualization when entering a TV Show.

This should be solved now.
