If you update to a recent nightly build and get preview 8 you can choose a playlist as widget. You may make a duplicate playlist and set the limit for it to 10 or 25 to speed up the loading of the widget.

Work fine !!! Thanks !!

But there is no way to get infoline for custom menu based on smart playlists this way, but it's doesn't matter for me.

No, its a bit complicated. The only way I found is by altering your script to strip it to only use the counting part, but that still requires loading the script 16 possible times on startup or an opening Home window. Thats too much code imo. I had a way of adding it to xbmc core code, but turn out it could not be used on home screen, so atm i'm out of ideas for that one.

@zag: wasnt that already added? Cant check atm but I recall adding those in list view a few weeks back.

I just checked and the 5 stars are missing from under the track times.

Please excuse the poor mockup

Also while i'm at it, the text looks pretty big here, is there any way to squeeze more tracks onto the page possibly? Say.. 10 tracks for a typical album. Would it effect performance too much?

Ah I see, I have it laying in a local branch and never merged it. If you disable the parent folder item, you already gain 1 item

Just came by to say i'm pleased with the larger font size. Always liked Aeon, (65, Nox) I haven't been a great fan of MQ because I'm not that close to my TV and tiny font size have always been a problem (When you're 4/5 meters away from the TV)

So congrats to @Big_Noid, fantastic work !

Thx, I agree on the larger font, it gives the whole thing more a 10 feet interface look.

As for TriPanel; I'd rather keep it like it is.

Thanks, i think I'm on 7 so I'll update when i get in later.

For the TriPanel part, i figured as much that you'd like to keep it the same. Is there an easy way i can change this myself? Or at least point my in the right direction as to where to look to make the change?

Thanks,
Chris

Sure, open View_55_TriPanel.xml with your favorite text editor and search for

Code:

<description>Unwatched episodes</description>

In that group is a label with

Code:

<label>$VAR[ListOverlayEpisodesVar]</label>

Adjust the font for that control or add bold indicators like so:

Code:

<label>$VAR[ListOverlayEpisodesVar,[B],[/B]]</label>

EDIT: oh right, theres two of those, on for focused items and one for unfocused.

For show case view, you don't have plan to add delay option to display infopanel ?

Thanks.

No, I wanted to keep that simple. If you see how much more code is needed for that one single option I thought it would be better to leave it out.
