Thanks. Does this mean I have to edit home.xml over again after every skin update in order to have music open in file library?

Big_Noid Wrote:Only by hacking the Home.xml. I may make it optional in the future.
find this code:
Code:
<item id="3">
            <label>2</label>
            <onclick>ActivateWindow(Music)</onclick>
            <icon>special://skin/backgrounds/music.jpg</icon>
            <thumb>$INFO[Skin.String(Home_Custom_Back_Music_Folder)]</thumb>
            <visible>!Skin.HasSetting(HomeMenuNoMusicButton) + !Library.HasContent(Music)</visible>
          </item>
          <item id="3">
            <label>2</label>
            <onclick>ActivateWindow(musiclibrary,albums,return)</onclick>
            <icon>special://skin/backgrounds/music.jpg</icon>
            <thumb>$INFO[Skin.String(Home_Custom_Back_Music_Folder)]</thumb>
            <visible>!Skin.HasSetting(HomeMenuNoMusicButton) + Library.HasContent(Music)</visible>
          </item>

and replace with this:
Code:
<item id="3">
            <label>2</label>
            <onclick>ActivateWindow(Music)</onclick>
            <icon>special://skin/backgrounds/music.jpg</icon>
            <thumb>$INFO[Skin.String(Home_Custom_Back_Music_Folder)]</thumb>
            <visible>!Skin.HasSetting(HomeMenuNoMusicButton)</visible>
          </item>

There won't be as much skin updates as before, but don't worry. I will make it optional.

No OSD at all is shown :o no pause button and so on only the CD playing is shown.

Wow best skin to date!! Quick question, When I click the music button on the main menu how do I get to go to "Artists" right now it keeps going straight to "Albums"

No biggy just wondering.

Okay, the OSD is not a skin problem then. Just be sure to map a button on your remote that corresponds with the <menu> item in remote.xml. That should bring up the OSD.
This is not a debug log, please see this:

I will revert that in next skin update and make it optional. For now just press "root" or "artists" in sub-menu.

Sorry this is somewhat my fault I think, I requested the change...

... so I didn't have to edit home.xml after every update. Laugh

Big_Noid, thanks for your receptiveness to new ideas. Sounds like this won't make the cut (at least as default) which is fine, it would be awesome if there was an option in the skin like you're suggesting though.

FWIW one of my main motivations in all this is a desire to make XBMC easy for the wife to use with a universal remote, and the more consistently a single button makes the UI go where you need to be and then "back" in the expected way the better, to my way of thinking. Dharma can be a bit unintuitive in the way it handles all that, thanks a bunch for building as much flexibility as you have into Nox.

in a previous skin I used it was possible to set either recently added song or album for the music section.

Is this not included in this skin, or is it a restriction of the recently added module being carried out by xbmc core rather than a plugin?

Skin, XBMC uses both Songs and Albums.

ok, seems like this is skin related as they have added LatestAlbum into the nightlies. I have found the necessary XML file and edited manually and is working great!

Found this out just before you replied (funnily enough it was your skin I was using before with Recent Albums - but that was before the nightlies were out so wasn't sure).

I've been using Aeon Nox for a while now and i've always wondered if it was possible to remove items from the submenu.
Now when i press down on the homescreen (while on TV Shows for example) i get a lot of choices, one of them is schedule.
I only use schedule, the others i'd like to remove.

On some other skins you can delete those, but i haven't found an option for that on Aeon Nox.

Could this be made possibleHuh?

not possible through the menu as far as I know but you can remove certain menu items through the home.xml file. Just make sure you have a backup first.

I have no idea why it won't show up. The script runs good and gives back a "succes" as result. So I can't help you with this.

I thought you had a good point, so I implemented it. But I can also understand if people want it back the old way. An option will suite both. The only danger in that is having too much trivial options, but I think this discussion is not in play for the other menu buttons.

After reading your comment I made an optional latest albums widget. It's available in git version.

There are pro's and cons about this. I am not sure yet if I will add this.
