Question regarding viewing cast info
#1
Am I missing something or is there an easy way to get cast info while watching a TV show? Many times I'll be tempted to look and see the name of a certain actor, but it seems rather inelegant to have to back out to the episode information screen and select cast. I searched this forum but didn't see anything that addressed my question. Thanks.

sorry, this one slipped my mind a bit...

yes, it's possible to show a list of actors there,
though it's not implemented in Transparency!

i could add it, but only by popular demand. ;-)

We paused and backed out of Secretariat four times the other night to see the cast info. Finally everybody was just like "forget it." No

I haven't used SVN before. If I wanna try that new version. Will I just use a SVN gui-program and download everything in that dir into the old skin-dir?
Or do I have to delete or do something else before? :confused2:


*** edit ***
Now I use the version "included" in xbmc skin-section, under 'get more'. Smile

I see the information, but when I click on the little figure for cast information I just get the empty background with no information?

can't reproduce i'm afraid.
i assume you've made sure cast info is available for the movie you're playing?

could either of you do this please:
  • update your svn again
  • restart xbmc
  • skin settings > show debug info
  • play movie/episode
  • bring up the cast info and create a screenshot
