OSD when Paused
#1
I'm hoping Ronie can point me in the right direction, if this is an easy mod...

I'm wanting to have the OSD screen be displayed when I press pause, rather than what is typically displayed.

I've poked through playercontrols.xml and some of the other files, but not really getting anywhere.

to make the OSD visible when you pause a movie you'll have to modify VideoOSD.xml.
at the top of the file, insert the line in bold:
Code:
<window type="dialog" id="2901">
    <defaultcontrol always="true">903</defaultcontrol>
[b]    <visible>Player.Seeking | Player.DisplayAfterSeek | Player.Paused | Player.Forwarding | Player.Rewinding</visible>[/b]
    <allowoverlay>yes</allowoverlay>




if you also want to disable the info that's currently shown when you pause a movie, modify DialogSeekbar.xml
and change:
Code:
<visible>Player.Seeking | Player.DisplayAfterSeek | Player.Paused | Player.Forwarding | Player.Rewinding</visible>
to:
Code:
<visible>false</visible>

Wow, that was fast. Shocked Thanks!!!

Ooops...just noticed that the OSD doesn't have control, the onup, onleft etc are still controlling the movie playback. I know it's not your job to teach me XML, so if you want to expend the effort to explain, I appreciate it. Otherwise, I understand.
