I was wondering if there was anyway of overlaying a small image over video playback, im not talking about hardcoding the image on the actual videos, but something like a extra option where you can turn it on for for certain videos or playlists.
Something like this:
from what I know I need to make a new window that will display the logo when I press a button eg button 5 on the remote control.
Had a go but didnt manage to get it to work
Here is what I did
Saved as custom6.xml and put in /E/Dashboard/skin/Project Mayhem III/PAL
then edited keymaps with the following
Didnt know where to palce logo.png so I tried it here /E/Dashboard/skin/Project Mayhem III/media
Obviously im a total newbie when it comes to this but if anyone can help please reply
