ID for widgets list control is 301. The window is Home.xml but the actual code is in Includes_Home.xml
However, I don't think what you are trying to achieve is possible... At least I don't know how to do it just with a key map (probably possible with a python script though). If you manage to do this, let me know how you did it as I'm very interested in what method you used.

I just went through dialogvideoinfo.xml and the extendedinfo-script version of it, and it seems to be far easier to simply change the extended info window to view certain local infos, based on the condition if the DBID is empty or not, so that it looks like dialogvideoinfo for videos that are in the library. But why are there two different dialog infos anyways? I always thought it would be way clearer if the same window just acts differently, whether a movie or show has a local library entry or not.

Because extended info is provided by an addon. The inbuilt one is called by the info key and uses database info, whereas extended info makes calls to the themoviedb api for info. Also there are certain built in functions not exposed to extended info like refresh, get thumbs and trailer. These have to be accessed from video info.
Also without a python script that makes json calls to the local database, you're going to have a hard time accessing local info from the extended info page. The skinning engine doesn't natively expose videodb info to Windows outside of myvideonav (video info is a dialog inside that window).

Hi,
Could you point me in the right direction to the right XML to change the vertical menu text to white and the highlight to the highlight colour please ?
The grey text is a bit hard to see for me.
Thanks.
Figured it out now.

Hi
Jurial, There s an information provide by extended info script that you should add to your skin: concerts around me. I think there are 2 possible options.
- on artist info window
- maybe a new widget like the widge "in cinemas"
Not sure if the second one 's possible but it could be really awesome.
I know you re working in Isengard changes (thx for that) but it could be a Nice idea for futur.

Love the skin, very clean. However, when I click on Playlist in the OSD of the "Now Playing" screen nothing happens. How do I see the Music Queue?

Amazing skin, especially now with the vertical menu!
There are two UI element inconsistencies (in my opinion, ofcourse) though:
1. The short, curved progress bars in the PVR windows. I'm not sure this matches the rest of the skin, and would look great if they were longer/thinner (therefore displaying more accurate information) and were rectangular like the progress bar in the video OSD
2. During PVR playback, pressing "c" brings up the channel list. There is a blue diagonal-striped texture that I don't see anywhere else in the skin
Feel free to ignore, love your work!
