Music OSD in standard slideshow - markiej - 2017-05-07 I'm loving the customizability of this skin. It seems to be missing one thing I used often with Confluence. I used to be able to do a standard picture slide show (not screen saver) and have the music "now playing" widget(?) on top. It was the main use of the kodi box. It would play from a variety of internet radio, or local music. Show images from 500px, and say what's playing. Is there a "hidden" setting where I can enable this. I'm even happy tinkering with files and scripts. Thanks!! RE: Music OSD in standard slideshow - tjost - 2017-05-07 Just remove the <visible>XXX</visible> and it stays forever RE: Music OSD in standard slideshow - markiej - 2017-05-08 Thanks for the hint! I've been poking around xml files (not making changes, just looking). SlideShow.xml looked promising but was nearly empty. Is there a specific file / control I should be looking into? Thanks again!! RE: Music OSD in standard slideshow - markiej - 2017-05-08 I did some poking around and found a a solution I like - shows artist, title, weather, date, and time along the top. A bit hacky but it worked. Next thing to tackle is making it a toggle with the info button. SlideShow.xml (entire contents) Code: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> (screenshot without music playing) http://tinypic.com/r/2qdbuok/9 (with music playing) http://tinypic.com/r/6xugpe/9 Also figured out code to add to the slideshow screensaver addon for the same effect.
