Hi,

Love this skin, is there anyway to implement visible buffer pn the progress bar when streaming? Thats pretty much all im missing =)

Charlie
so yeah, im guessing this a no go? Is there anyway to implement this myself with a code string?
A buffer progress bar is a definite must.

To add one edit DialogSeekBar.xml located in %appdata%\XBMC\addons\skin.amber\1080i

Look for:

Code:
<control type="progress" description="Buffer Bar">
    <posx>500</posx>
    <posy>3</posy>
    <width>920</width>
    <height>18</height>
    <texturebg border="15,0,15,0">VideoOSD/ProgressBG.png</texturebg>
    <midtexture border="15,0,15,0">VideoOSD/ProgressBar.png</midtexture>
    <info>Player.CacheLevel</info>
    <visible>Player.Caching</visible>
</control>

Immediately after insert this code:

Code:
<control type="progress" description="Cache Progress Bar">
    <posx>500</posx>
    <posy>3</posy>
    <width>920</width>
    <height>18</height>
    <texturebg border="15,0,15,0">VideoOSD/ProgressBG.png</texturebg>
    <midtexture border="15,0,15,0">VideoOSD/ProgressBar.png</midtexture>
    <colordiffuse>Grey</colordiffuse>
    <info>Player.ProgressCache</info>
    <visible>true</visible>
</control>
