Thanks for all the comments!
@iAMl3dgend : Thanks! and the coloured tiles will hopefully be added into the next update Smile
@ADHDMedia : I sometimes find this error when playing some games on Xbox, and then signing in to XBMC. For some reason the gamertag script cannot get info for certain games. Also it is case sensitive when entering your gamertag so make sure that you add any upper/lower case letters on there because the script could fail if it's not right. and Thanks!
@ADHDMedia : Thanks!
@jamescrow : The update section should only pop up once on your first time using the skin or if you toggle the setting in skinsettings (Uncheck to run setup on next boot). Also the update section just toggles all the skin settings to how i always keep mine and it adds to the experience. So if you play around with the settings and something goes wrong then you can toggle the setting "Uncheck to run setup on next boot" and then they will all go back to normal the next time you start up.
@iAMl3dgend : I am just uploading the skin now so it should be online in an hour or so

I am just uploading the skin now so it should be online in an hour or so.

There have been a lot of things added to the skin but the Xbox Video section still needs a lot of work. At the moment the buttons direct you to trakt.tv and the search button searches youtube. I will shortly be adding updating advertisements with latest movies/tv shows ect.

To get to your video library you can now go to the movies section to the right of the dashboard, then go to my collection.
Also the textures really need to be cleaned up because they are now at 400mb. But i will give them a good clean up in the next update.
And here is the download link ! : https://onedrive.live.com/redir?resid=C5...9684%21938
Make sure that you delete the previous version of the skin!

Hey i just tried it out the skin doesnt work on gotham anymore Sad
Hello toyota12303

I see you've made xbox video section, I made xbox music section in my skin but I do not have solution for dynamic image like script.extendedinfo for movie and tv show , NearEvents is not so good solution.
Do you have some idea ?

Best Regards
Gonna download in a few minutes and give it a go! Thanks for the hard work bro.

Update: When I log in, I still get the gamertag error. Upon looking through the skin folder, however, I see that it has downloaded my gamertag avatar and such and stuck em in a folder. When I use the skin, however, if I choose the link to gamertag option, my avatar is blank.

Does this make any sense? Lol
can you please upload somewhere else?
I can't install, it says dependencies not met.
Ok... I updated to Gotham, and tried installing again and it worked. Now I have the new skin installed, but I don't see any of the stuff from that last round of screenshots? What exactly is new in this update?
@iAMl3dgend : I'm not sure why it isn't working for you, i'll download Gotham now and test it out.
@senna99 : Hello senna99, yeah i'm not too sure of what to put there on my skin either, at the moment i have just used local content. For example : $INFO[Window(Home).Property(RandomAlbum.2.Fanart)] will show random fanart stored from an album in your XBMC library, and
$INFO[Window(Home).Property(RandomAlbum.2.Play)] will start playing that album.
$INFO[Window(Home).Property(RandomAlbum.2.Title)] will display the title of the album.
and $INFO[Window(Home).Property(RandomAlbum.2.Artist)] will display the artist name.
This is about the best solution i've fount at the moment. I'll let you know if i find anything better.
@ADHDMedia : Yeah at the moment your avatar isn't displayed anywhere, the gamertag script is being used to get your gamerpic, recent games, gamerscore ect.
Sometimes the gamertag script will fail when it can't get certain content for one of your 5 most recently played games. Also if you continue to get problems with it then it can be disabled in the skin settings by toggling the "link gamertag" option.
@chisharpe : Yeah i was going to upload it to mediafire, but at the time i couldn't access the website. I will also be uploading it to Github soon.
@ADHDMedia : If you are experiencing dependency issues then try replacing the addon.xml with the one on the first page of this forum thread.
@ADHDMedia : I'm not sure why that is happening, are you sure that you have downloaded the most recent version ?
in the latest release there should be :
animation changes
changed tiles
alternative fanarts
an offline notification
a clock
a controller notification

When you install the skin, make sure the setup is ran. if not then go into settings and untick the option that says "Uncheck to run setup on next boot" and this should enable some of the things that might be missing.

There is also a small few fixes that i have recently added in here : http://www.mediafire.com/view/57h7jjb1xo...s_home.xml

Just copy and paste into your skins 720p folder.
Hello toyota12303

Well thanks for reply, I see that it's a dead heat with information for music and games.
But I am working currently with python scripts, I am able to download how much I want pictures from internet,
but the main problem is that I can not set the line for download location for now I use only C partition,
for me is ok but for export skin for other people not quite right.
Praise for the new update,If you want you can use my coding line for pins, in my skin works very well.

Best Regards
Ok, I'll try downloading and reinstalling. I downloaded from the last link you put up.

So where does it show your gamer tag info? When I click the tile on the left of the home screen it brings me to a generic screen with info about forza I think it is. Sorry if I sound like a noob lol I guess I just don't fully understand the script.
Well I did download the new update but I only see the pin section now where is normal xbox one home screen it also gives gamertag py error
Ok. I completely removed the skin, downgraded to Frodo, reinstalled and ran the skin, went through set up, and now see all the updated content. It looks beautiful! Thanks a million.

My only issue know (which may prove to be a big one) is the fact that the Xbox Video section doesn't show any of my movies anymore. The first tab that says "Collection" just says it's lonely there and is asking me to point it to my media directory. The problem there is that all of my media is located on a network hard drive that I access via FTP. So basically it shows me all of my local drives and no option to go outside to the network, whereas the Movies and TV section before just showed me all my media from where it was.

What exactly is going on here? Is there a way to have it show my TV and Movies sections like it did before under collection? I'm kind of lost.
I cant sign in and connect with xboxlive it says no internet connection but there is one help please Huh
