Is it possible to modify the date format on the title page? It currently reads: Saturday, December 19, 2009. I like to change it to 19-Dec-09 so it takes up less space and allows the clock to be displayed on my system using a modified Font12's size from the standard 16 to 22 in /usr/share/xbmc/skin/Confluence/720p/Font.xml to allow better viewing. Our TV is kinda far away from the couch.

Best thing I was able to find was /usr/share/xbmc/skin/Confluence/720p/Home.xml where I did a search for 'date' and redefined the font to 'font12-hack' which I created in /usr/share/xbmc/skin/Confluence/720p/Font.xml set to a size of 16. I also tried messing with the <width> of that date section, expanding it from the default 400 to 600 and 800 but I saw no effect in the GUI.
