Hello, so I managed to change the window that opens when I click on the i (information) button in the OSD. To do that, I created a new custom window where I pasted the whole DialogVideoInfo.xml. But for some reasons that I don't know, the cast doesn't appear, it says "no cast available" while there is a cast. Do you know what could be the reason ?

Thanks

No, if I change the line to :

xml:
<onclick>ActivateWindow(fullscreeninfo)</onclick>

the window doesn't open

i tested and worked fine...

<onclick condition="player.hasvideo">ActivateWindow(10142)</onclick>
or
<onclick condition="player.hasvideo">ActivateWindow(fullscreeninfo)</onclick>

I am using the Estuary Skin, and there is only this in the dialogfullscreeninfo.xml file : 

xml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<window>

    <defaultcontrol always="true">999</defaultcontrol>

    <controls>

        <control type="button" id="999">

            <left>0</left>

            <top>0</top>

            <width>100%</width>

            <height>100%</height>

            <texturefocus />

            <texturenofocus />

            <onright>StepForward</onright>

            <onleft>StepBack</onleft>

            <onup>ChapterOrBigStepForward</onup>

            <ondown>ChapterOrBigStepBack</ondown>

            <onclick>OSD</onclick>

        </control>

    </controls>

</window>

It is the dialogvideoinfo.xml file that permit to display the full screen informations. It is normally displayed when you press and hold a movie then click on information but not in the OSD but that's what I want to do. But I managed to get this in the OSD by clicking on the i button, without cast and the button at the bottom do not work :
And I think it's this whole panel in the DialogVideoInfo.xml file that permits to display the cast :

xml:

                    <onup condition="System.HasAddon(script.embuary.info) + !System.AddonIsEnabled(script.embuary.info) + !String.IsEqual(ListItem.DBType,set)">EnableAddon(script.embuary.info)</onup>

My understand is that is not what Bungee_G wants. In Estuary fullscreen info triggers a info overlay, it seems Bungee_G wants to retain that and have the option of displaying the full detailed info that DialogVideoInfo.xml displays.

@Bungee_G DialogVideoInfo.xml uses ListItem infolabels as it displays details for the selected item, if creating a similar window to show details for a playing item then you have to change the infolabels to their VideoPlayer equivalents e.g. ListItem.Cast to VideoPlayer.Cast

Yes that's what I want to do. I already changed all of the ListItem (all of the listitem) by VideoPlayer and that's how I got the poster and plot displayed... But the cast still doesn't appear

Left reply open as work distracted before hitting Reply button, so only now see your latest post @Bungee_G

So the infolabels for cast haven't been changed, I'm not immediatly sure how they could transformed to VideoPlayer equivalents.

Okay thanks, I tried to change to videoplayer but didn't work... So there is no equivalents, is there ?

VideoPlayer.Cast will return cast as a list I think, not able to test at moment, if so I'm not sure if there someway to transform that into an actor poster type display. You might be better posting in the skin dev forum, or I can move thread.

I am not sure, if the cast get a native id for use at fullscreeninfo , but if not you can use a script for the content path. e.g. script.embuary.helper

id 50 is default id for cast content in dialogvideoinfo so maybe

eg. add a custom container
<visible> may a condition if !Integer.IsGreater(Container(50).NumItems,0) </visible>
<content>$VAR[videoplayer_cast_content]</content>

<variable name="videoplayer_cast_content">
     <value condition="Integer.IsGreater(VideoPlayer.DBID,0) + VideoPlayer.Content(episodes)">plugin://script.embuary.helper?info=getcast&amp;type=tvshow&amp;dbid=$INFO[VideoPlayer.DBID]&amp;idtype=episode</value>
     <value condition="Integer.IsGreater(VideoPlayer.DBID,0) + VideoPlayer.Content(movies)">plugin://script.embuary.helper?info=getcast&amp;type=movie&amp;dbid=$INFO[VideoPlayer.DBID]</value>
 <variable>

Ah it most likely that

RunScript(script.embuary.info,call=person,query='$ESCINFO[Container(50).ListItem.Label]')

doesn't reurn anything when in fullscreen video.

Looking at https://github.com/sualfred/script.embuary.info I'm not sure if the script can return details for the playing item rather than selected item.

May Try

xml:
<variable name="videoplayer_cast_content">

     <value condition="Integer.IsGreater(VideoPlayer.DBID,0) + VideoPlayer.Content(episodes)">plugin://script.embuary.helper?info=getcast&amp;type=tvshow&amp;dbid=$INFO[VideoPlayer.DBID]&amp;idtype=episode</value>

     <value condition="Integer.IsGreater(VideoPlayer.DBID,0) + VideoPlayer.Content(movies)">plugin://script.embuary.helper?info=getcast&amp;type=movie&amp;dbid=$INFO[VideoPlayer.DBID]</value>

 <variable>

Ok moved to Skin dev forum in case what mardukL suggestion doesn't work, so other devs can put forth suggestions.

Perhaps @sualfred could give guidance on what may work.
