They are there now.

Thank you. I have got the new file. The main AS window is now at the back but the Artist Bio and other albums windows are still on the top. IIRC in Eden the artist bio was also behind other visualisations.

The instructions on the wiki still refer to userdata. I think you should change
Quote:This is probably the easiest way, but anytime you upgrade or reinstall XBMC you will have to reinstall these modifications. Go to the installation userdata folder (see this wiki page under special://xbmc for the path for your operating system). Then go to addons --> skin.confluence. Use the files from the zip to overwrite the ones in this directory. Read the README file for the correct location of the files.

Note the new zip file has an additional file called "Icon^M". I think this slipped in accidentally.

I have another topic. I have several songs with multiple artists. For example one with Bob Dylan and Johnny Cash. It is apparent from XBMC's library behaviour that the correct way to tag such songs is "artist a; artist b". Then the entries for each artist will show the song and when it is playing the display shows the names separated by a "/". If I use e.g. "artist a & artist b" a new artist is created with that name in the library.

With songs tagged like this, AS shows info and photos only for the first artist. It would be wonderful if it could show them for each artist. It could so so serially, perhaps displaying each artist for an equal amount of the song's time. I.e.,

time-per-artist = song time / number of artists

but if you have a long song with 2 artists, you probably don't want to wait until half the song has played before displaying the second artist. So it would be good to interleave the artists' displays in some way.
