mstef Wrote:Yes, I have this always and same as you of the fractions of second, but I also have this even I set fadetime to 0. I suppose you have to clear cover cover place if there is nothing to show, not just hide it; check condition, maybe you show it before you load the cover

mstef Wrote:574 is for music only, for video thumbnails is 57 (large grid) and 571 (small grid)

OK I find, 572 is thumbinal for music

mstef Wrote:OK, here you are. I create a keymap to get change view by pressing a button on remote or keyboard. As I don't use teletext I use this four colour buttons to go into specific view and I use teletext button to view cycle. Colour buttons I use only in video library, music library and pictures. In other dialogs works only teletext switch to cycle views. If you want you can modify this as you want.

So how to get specific view:

list - remote red or keyboard 1
thumbnails - remote green or keyboard 2
slide poster or cover - remote yellow or keyboard 3 (video & music only)
slide fanart - remote blue or keyboard 4 (video only)
thumbail small grid - keyboard 5 (video only)
gallery - keyboard 6 (video & pictures only)
gallery fullscreen - keyboard 7 (video & pictures only)

cycle views - remote teletext or keyboard 0

Here is my keymap for reFocus (for other skins you should modify the containers id's). Put it in the userdata\keymaps folder and restart xbmc. I tested it on my keyboard and asrock 330ht with remote.

Thanks to Hitcher who give me a clue. Jeroen, if you think it is important to your job get and put this file into safe place, because I don't know how log I'll be host it.

starcitysecrets Wrote:Two suggestions, is it possible to have a toggle to use video source flags (bluray, dvd, r5) instead of video codecs (h.264, xvid)?

Quote:and within dharma, it is possible to change the settings so that when you select a movie or tv episode, it brings up the info screen instead of playing the video. could we have something that allows refocus to play the movie/episode from within the info screen without having to go into the left menu. heres a rough idea for something that could work.

Jeroen Wrote:Well, that's the thing. I'm not hiding anything, It just displays whatever cover is there for an album, and if there's no cover available it will just show nothing. I'm probably going to have to take this up with the XBMC devs.

Jeroen Wrote:Very strange, it's working normally for me, also Dharma beta 4

Kolabor Wrote:Well, looks like I've enabled "AC3 capable receiver" in settings and then you can't set volume/mute within XBMC.

mstef Wrote:Jeoren, please consider change some skin settings for homescreen; present couple of settings:

use fanart slideshow (on|off)
set custom slideshow (path)

to

use fanart slideshow (on|off)
use custom slideshow (on|off)
- slideshow path (path)


If I disable 'use fanart slideshow' and I have previous set path for custom slideshow, I get slideshow even I don't want it because there is no clear button for path, so if I don't want slideshow I have to navigate to any folder that hasn't images into itself.

Quote:And you know what? In kiosk mode the menu is accessible even it is hidden Try to for example in movies list view press left arrow, movie title is unfocus, try up or down and press enter and you execute some of the submenu.

starcitysecrets Wrote:YES, jeoren i think i finally found out what is causing the add-on view problem...

Jeroen Wrote:Nice work, I have a hunch about how to possibly fix this now. I'll try to do this for the next release (which by the way will probably be next week and is basically intended to be a bugfix release).
