Is the following possible with this skin ?
I want

All in a Horizontal list
I think this should be partially possible. Only the settings part is not possible.
Just use the Custom Menu *Change Submenues* option in the Skin Settings.
RE: [MOD] Cirrus Extended - Support thread - ray233 - 2014-07-31
Love this skin. Coupled with Advanced Launcher, it's the best thing I've found to provide a console style interface for my PC games library.
I have a couple of questions about tweaking it and I'm not sure if they should be directed toward Advanced Launcher, this skin or XBMC in general:
How can I modify the black areas (I found some XML references to PNG images that I couldn't locate in the skin's directory? I'd like to try a white layout.
Do videos still work with this skin? My extra fanart is showing up in the background as desired, but I couldn't get my trailer to play (named trailer.mp4 in recommended path).
Also, can the placement and size of the trailer video or screenshots/fanart be added or tweaked simply, or does that get into heavy coding within the skin?
Thanks for any input and the dev work that goes into this.
---------------------
My ideal scenario would be to boot into XBMC right into my games list. From there I'd like to scroll through the view with fanart in the background, and a video or fading screenshots in the foreground artwork space within the view. Being able to achieve that would eliminate my hunt for a PC game frontend. I've tried a lot of different solutions (steam big picture, mediaportal, maximus, hyperspin, gameex, etc)....but I just love the look of Cirrus with Advanced Launcher the best. It's the most polished.

love this skin. (doesnt everyone? haha)
Having a small bug/issue
everything worked wonderful before i left on vacation for 1 week.
i came back. and the screen was black but could hear sounds. figured it was something with the screensaver. unpluged XMBC box. replugged in, everything working well. watched 5 tv shows my sickbeard has downloaded for me.
i digress.
i went to watch a movie and noticed that the FANART background for the movie (any movie) is the fanart for the last TV show i have selected (not ever watched)
i use Big Poster view. and when i go from the last movie back to the "up/return" icon. i can quickly breifly see the correct fan art for the movie.
as you can see. the fanart background is that of "The Walking Dead"
RE: [MOD] Cirrus Extended - Support thread - peteypauls - 2014-08-11
hello all. I have multi-images for my home screen (ex. music changes backgrounds of different artists on home screen). The problem is when i go into both the artist list and/or in my now playing. If there is no artist fan art associated, the multi-image background shows up. I'd rather have a single default image for the fan art when nothing is associated. I assume i have to do some tweaking in music visualization.xml but not sure what i need to do. Any help is appreciated.

You would have to change the lines #128 and #158 of file ViewsVideoRightlist.xml to something like:
Code:
<label>$INFO[ListItem.Label] - ($INFO[ListItem.Property(UnWatchedEpisodes)])</label>RE: [MOD] Cirrus Extended - Support thread - hydraSlav - 2014-08-14

Thank you! Will try this tonight
RE: [MOD] Cirrus Extended - Support thread - tzui - 2014-08-16
Thank you for this masterpiece of skin! It is amazing how leightweight and fast it is, way better than many others!
I have just one little problem that I can't change the focus on start up. I tried to change the "Start up window" and the "Custom Focus Offset" but both options didn't change anything.
Maybe it's just me but I really tried everything out without any solution.
---------------------------------------------------
I found out how to fix the problem Weather shows up two times when you activate weather fanart:
IncludesHomeMainMenu.xml
Line 431, change
Code:
<visible>!Skin.HasSetting(HomeMenuNoWeatherButton)</visible>Code:
<visible>!Skin.HasSetting(HomeMenuNoWeatherButton) + !Weather.IsFetched</visible>Better this way:
replace all 4 id="24" blocks with this:
Code:
<item id="24">
<label>8</label>
<onclick>ActivateWindow(Weather)</onclick>
<icon>special://skin/backgrounds/weatherfanart.jpg</icon>
<visible>!Skin.HasSetting(ShowWeatherFanart) | IsEmpty(Skin.String(WeatherFanartDir)) | !Weather.IsFetched</visible>
</item>
<item id="24">
<label>8</label>
<onclick>ActivateWindow(Weather)</onclick>
<icon>$INFO[Skin.String(HomeWeatherFanartFolder)]$INFO[Weather.FanartCode]</icon>
<visible>Weather.IsFetched + Skin.HasSetting(ShowWeatherFanart) + !IsEmpty(Skin.String(WeatherFanartDir))</visible>
</item>Skin settings -> Home Window -> Weather Condition fanart on home
but make the Fanart option in the weather app works without any duplicates.
But I have still no idea how to make Focus Offset works as it should
---------------------------------------------------
To make start up window work as you set in the settings add this:
Startup.xml - Line 52
Code:
<control type="button" id="10">
<description>trigger</description>
<onfocus>ReplaceWindow($INFO[System.StartupWindow])</onfocus>
<texturenofocus>-</texturenofocus>
<texturefocus>-</texturefocus>
<visible>!Skin.HasSetting(Use_Startup_Playlist)</visible>
</control>RE: [MOD] Cirrus Extended - Support thread - JoeBlow42069 - 2014-08-23
I think Cirrus V2 was able to auto-play video snaps in the fanart window, when navigating a game library w/ Advanced Launcher. Is it possible to do this with V3? I tried the play trailer option, but isn't exactly what I'm looking for.
RE: [MOD] Cirrus Extended - Support thread - JoeBlow42069 - 2014-09-05
Is it possible to change the cd art disc speed on the home menu?
RE: [MOD] Cirrus Extended - Support thread - paradix - 2014-09-05
Well it is possible but you would have to edit the proper xml file.
You can't change it with the skin settings.

Hmm, I was never using the Advanced Laucher myself, but I can remember that I was making some changes in the skin for the trailers.
The plugin/addon author has noticed some problem and mentioned it here some posts ago.
I will have a look, but I can't promise anything.

Could you tell me in which view you would expect the auto play trailer option?

@paradix
Are you thinking about a Kodi release?
If you need testers, I don't upgrade till CE will be available for Kodi, so you can count with me
RE: [MOD] Cirrus Extended - Support thread - paradix - 2014-10-12
I'll probably do the update, but not before November. Now I'm really swamped with other things.
RE: [MOD] Cirrus Extended - Support thread - S3N1L3AN1MAL - 2014-10-13
I'm trying to switch from Aeon Nox to this, but DL gets stuck at 98%, so I figured I'd get it from Github, and I see this:
"Keep in mind, that before you install from master.zip you need to remove the file ../addons/packages/master.zip
If you forget this step XBMC will install from the zip file in ../addons/packages/ directory"
I checked in program files/xbmc and in appdata/xbmc and I don't have "master.zip," so, I'm good to go then? Thanks for any insight; I appreciate it.
