Because I'm using Horizontal home menu I want to flip the background images horizontally so less of the fanart window is covered by the new movies/TV box in the lower right.
I haven't gotten to TV yet, but I'm editing Includes_Home.xml and changing the posx/posy as well as the width/height under <include name="Home_Movies_Fanart"> and it isn't quite getting the job done. No matter what I enter, there are black parts outside the fanart. Do you have any advise for getting it right? Is there another setting I have to adjust?
Thanks!
I was able to get the TV done easily since it's mostly just a square. But I can't seem to get the movie one to work with it's odd curved shape. I can increase the width and height and remove both rotate animations and it fits, but I lose a lot of the fan art. I just can't figure out how the original one fits like example #1, but I can't get mine better than example #2
#1 original movie background:
#2 horizontal flip:
I'm pretty sure is has something to do with these two animation lines, but I'm not sure what the values should be...
Code:
<animation effect="fade" start="0" end="100" time="200" delay="200">Visible</animation>
<animation effect="rotatey" center="320" start="20" end="20" time="0" condition="true">Conditional</animation>
<animation effect="rotate" center="320,220" start="-10" end="-10" time="0" condition="true">Conditional</animation>
Any ideas? I tried looking here
http://kodi.wiki/view/Animating_your_skin but now I'm more confused then before
Oh, and this is what I put for the TV background in case anyone wants it:
Paste over same lines in
Includes_Home.xml and then replace \AppData\Roaming\Kodi\addons\skin.transparency\backgrounds\tvshows.png with this flipped
tvshows
Code:
<include name="Home_TVShows_Fanart">
<control type="multiimage">
<posx>100</posx>
<posy>40</posy>
<width>900</width>
<height>600</height>
<imagepath background="true">$INFO[Skin.String(Custom_Home_TVShows_Fanart_Background_Path)]</imagepath>
<aspectratio aligny="top">scale</aspectratio>
<timeperimage>5000</timeperimage>
<randomize>true</randomize>
<fadetime>750</fadetime>
<animation effect="fade" start="0" end="100" time="200" delay="200">Visible</animation>
<animation effect="rotatey" center="222" start="6" end="6" time="0" condition="true">Conditional</animation>
<include condition="!Skin.HasSetting(Animate_Home_TVShows_Fanart_Background)">backgroundanimation2</include>
<visible>Container(5040).HasFocus(3) + ![Player.HasVideo + !Skin.HasSetting(HideHomeVideoBackground)] + ![Player.HasAudio + !Skin.HasSetting(HideHomeVizBackground)]</visible>
</control>
</include>
Less fanart is now covered:
