left menu - Kalliban - 2011-07-15 21:46

Any chance of more user settings, or will that complicate the coding?
I would like to be able to change which items are on the left menu. I only use movies, tv-shows and music. That means I have to enter videos almost all the time, and I would like to have movies and tv-shows in the menu instead of videos and pictures. Is that a big fix for you to add a choice of items to the options, or maybe something I can change myself? Smile

Otherwise, great skin! Every version keeps improving! Laugh

Edit: Also, I would like to see the file-path in the info-screen for episodes and movies. In some cases the scrapers choose the wrong movie or tv-show and without the file-path I can't see which movie it's supposed to be...

Edit2: And how about the SD/HD-flags in the little boxes that appear with the movie titles on the other views? (Sorry for the multiple requests) Laugh


Great idea - Abrasher - 2011-07-16 00:31

EDIT: Let me first say that I love the skin! It is absolutely the best build for a remote based TV (ie APT). I have downloaded and installed every skin that I could access over the past 5 days... at least 25-30. All had lag, bad remote functionality, graphics that slowed the processor, or ill conceived user experience. GREAT JOB!

I am having some issues with the home screen functions regarding the recently added lists. I would love to port in the random feature to all of these. Just like the top panel, but separated into each category. Is this something that would be safe for me to attempt on my own?

Meaning could I simply take an code segment from another skin and retro fit it into yours? If so, where are these Home Screen items located... HOME.XML?

I would think that you could simply change "script.recentlyadded" to "script.randomitems" in home.xml, which is located at %APPDATA%\xbmc\addons\skin.xeebo\720p (for windows that is, for linux it is located at $HOME/.xbmc/userdata)Smile


Thanks - Abrasher - 2011-07-16 21:44

I will absolutely try that. Do I need to download that script from
somewhere... Or is it already packed into xeebo?

Any Home customisation will wait until I see how it's implemented by XBMC itself and also when skin settings are controlled by the Addon settings.

I'll have at look at adding the flags to the other views but it will mean the cover parts of the posters.

Just change all the Latest... to Random... items.

They are already there, just change the xml-file. Smile

Hi, really awesome skin!
A little feature request: Is possible to enable/disable recently added items in the main screen? the reason is because I´m using an old Asus eee netbook to run it and is the only item relatively slow (everything else is really smooth).
Thanks a lot.

Any help would be appreciated. I have looked inside the XMBX/addons/skin.xeebo/720/...

I can see the HOME.xml, but i cannot find the LATEST or RANDOM XML. Are these located in a different files?

Thanks for any and all help guys!Nod

EDIT: THANK YOU HITCHER. I passed right over your post. I just made the changes and it is AWESOME. even loads a bit quiker, or so it seems.

Is there any way for me to direct a view of random apps installed. Something that I could label "FEATURED APPS" and have it pull randomly form either video addons or program addons?

When will the pre-eden version be out? I currently can't use this skin because I am running a nightly build. It doesn't even show up for me to download anymore.. : ( I used to love running this skin. Thanks for all your hard work Hitcher.
