I dont seem to be able to set a background folder for weather, it just shows up black when i set a folder. All other backgrounds work ok, but setting one for weather including one that is known to work in other categories doesn't seem to work.
In log this shows up:
21:59:42 T:2696393952 M:2491183104 ERROR: GetDirectory - Error getting /Users/Chris/Pictures/Background/Weather/27/
21:59:48 T:2696393952 M:2490269696 ERROR: GetDirectory - Error getting /Users/Chris/Pictures/Background/Weather/27/
the folder i set though, and tried setting again is "/Users/Chris/Pictures/Background/Weather/" i.e. not with "27/" on the end.
i think this is why it isn't working, Have i done something wrong in a setting?
p.s. and if i make a folder called "27" and put a picture in it tis does not work either

Hey Waffa!
What do i adjust in "includes.xml" so that the video playing sets itself as a background (rather than fanart or custom back ground). It happens in confluence but i dont understand what to change to make it like that.
I only ask as i like to see who is in the film i am watching and what other films they are in whilst watching it and the small box in the corner is a little small to carry on watching whilst checking that.
Many thanks

You can find that peace of code in Includes.xml line 1016
<include name="VideoOverlayUI">
I suggest you make it bigger, I quickly tried fullscreen and then it will cover everything.
But if you really want to, it is possible fullscreen, sorry I'm not going to I like it this way.

Im getting blank default screens for all BG.I see that you can customize all pages which is a cool feature.But Im just wantin to test on my Xbox and see how smooth it acts. I read you had added some BG around 1.7 or 1.8 but how do I enable it? Some of the SS you posted looked very good.
Thx

thx for quick response. I saw you got some of the BG from PDM because they looked good and loaded quick. I will look around and see if I find some. I do need to have a separate folder for each of those groups in skin settings?
Anyone have a pack of BG that you know of?
TY I grabbin them atm.. I will mess with it a bit today and see how it feels and if my wife can handle changing the skin again.LoL
I will also look at the Genre pack and see if I can sort it out too.
thx
