Slider control... - slinuxgeek - 2012-03-08
Can you please tell me how to use slider control as volume progress bar.
I wrote following in MyMusicNav.xml:
<control type="slider" >
<description>Volume Slider</description>
<posx>430</posx>
<posy>72</posy>
<width>720</width>
<height>16</height>
<visible>true</visible>
<texturebg>picture1.png</texturebg>
<textureslidernib>picture2.png</textureslidernib>
</control>
The line:
<textureslidernib>picture2.png</textureslidernib>
causes problem, the xbmc gets crashed & exits all of a sudden, why?
If I don't write that line xbmc runs smoothly.
But in neither case I am able to see any slider control.
Also please tell me more about how can I use it for volume adjustment.
wiki is not clear.
Thank You.

Looks like the wiki needs updating.
What you need to add to the slider is <action>volume</action> so XBMC knows that is what it's supposed to be for.

when I read confluence skin file "MusicOSD.xml"
in place of :
<texturebg>pic_file</texturebg>
this has been written:
<texturesliderbar>pic_file</texturesliderbar>
really , wiki needs to be updated.
I want to do that but I don't have knowledge.
Thank You for help.

as far as i can see all the info is there:
http://wiki.xbmc.org/index.php?title=Slider_Control
let me know what's missing and i'll add it.

<action>Volume</action> or <action>Seek</action> can be specified to automatically make a slider control handle seeking or volume. I think that's all that is supported currently.
Cheers,
