So that's just a mock up? Looks good. The spinning might be too much tho, I guess I'd have to see it in action.

[reaven]

with the cd image on the cd theres the spinning would be too much.

and yes the cd image is a mockup the blank cd is true

[reaven]

real working example, I make a mask and put the disc art in the same folder with the artist fanart



the mask need some touch but its working. (like make the cd center clear!)
what would be very cool, have a command to call the artist album path so you could put the cd image in each artist/album folder and the fanart slideshow in the artist folder since the fanart is not related to a particular album

hi reaven. i noticed in the first post the instructions say to add the bit of code to the fonts.xml.

howerver the line begining with <!-- OSD --> appears many times within the file. am i supposed to add it to every section, or just the first one i come accross? or a specific section?

PS This looks awsome

Looking better every day
Just wondering if it is possible to scrape the artist fanart from hdbackdrops just like MIP does, and pu them in the artist directory on a local drive. LIke
D:\Music\Fanart\Lady GaGa for example.

[reaven]

We have to test because I dont know. I dont use any scrape in my music.

Love the Mod, it would be nice for it to look for fanart in the artist directory like the guy before me said, as that is where XBMC looks for fanart by default.

Is the first <!-- OSD --> you found the one after <!-- Wall -->

like this:

PHP Code:

<!-- Wall -->

    <font>
      <name>Font_WallLabelMain</name>
      <filename>aeon_edit.ttf</filename>
      <size>17</size>
    </font>

<!-- OSD -->

    <font>
      <name>Font_OSDSeek</name>
      <filename>aeon_settings.ttf</filename>
      <size>18</size>
    </font>

    <font>
      <name>Font_OSDOptions</name>
      <filename>aeon_title.ttf</filename>
      <size>16</size>
    </font>

    <font>
        <name>Font_OSDCodecInfo</name>
        <filename>aeon_settings.ttf</filename>
        <size>22</size>
    </font>
    
    <font>
        <name>Font_OSDMusicArtist</name>
        <filename>aeon_settings.ttf</filename>
        <size>24</size>
    </font>

    <font>
        <name>Font_OSDMusicTitle</name>
        <filename>aeon_settings.ttf</filename>
        <size>38</size>
    </font>

<!-- Extra Font for music MOD -->    
<font>
      <name>Font_bigtime</name>
      <filename>aeon_main.ttf</filename>
      <size>85</size>
  </font>    

<!-- VirtualOSD -->

well I dont know if make another thread for the cd overlay now that I finish making and fixing the mask and the code, I will need people that want to help since the cd art need to be clean of the background and in png or maybe is there a way to apply a mask to the art and diffuse the background color with XBMC-skinning engine since almost all of the cd's background color are white.

really looking forward to this mate keep up the good work
