(Weather-fanart based on weather condition)

Hello,

Even if I am always in 1080p video display on my hdmi HD projector, choosing /weather_720p/ instead of /weather_1080p/, works

QUESTIONS:

-> Is-it any benefit to choose 720 instead of 1080, to preserve CPU and/or memory charge on the ZBOX ?

-> On Conflence-MOD skin, have you evaluated the CPU/memory charge added when we use the <Weather-fanart based on weather condition> process ?
-> If YES, Is-it significant ?

Thanks for your info Smile

For people with the same gripe as the quote above, I edited ViewsVideoRightList.xml. Genre is also scrolling now.

EDIT: Added a small studio logo in the lower right corner of the info

With logo, looks kinda neat down there:

Without logo, you wouldn't even notice anything missing:

File is usually found in folder "User\AppData\Roaming\XBMC\addons\skin.moddedconfluence\720p" (I'm on Windows 7, by the way)

Cannot navigate addons sometimes. - haiiyaa - 2012-03-07 01:39

I am having a strange issue and don't know if it is just my installation or not. On my home screen i have the menu in the center. This gives me access to the short cuts for the add-ons right there. For Videos submenu I have trailer addict and youtube among other add-ons configured. but the problem is, that if I go to either of these addon directly from the home page, then I don't see the highlight bar, and i am not able to select any item. But if go to Vidoes > Addons > Youtube and then I am able to navigate through the different options just fine.

I hope my explanation wasn't very confusing.

Anybody else seen this behaviour? This is not happening in all the addons. But it is consistently happening with trailer addict. I didn't notice this issue with the original confluence.

Thanks,

Yes, occasionally I have the same issue. With different add ons. By now I'm used to it.

Remove recently added from home screen once watched - haiiyaa - 2012-03-07 16:41

Hi,

I was wondering if there was a way on the home screen for movies and videos menus, that once a recently added movie has been watched it is removed from the list shown on the home screen. So, in a way the home screen shows recently added movies that have not been watched. And so if all the movies have been watched, then there are no movie icons shown on the home page.

Maybe, the same principal can be applied for the TV shows.

Also, can i completely remove the recently added option for music?

Thanks

Not possible due to limitation from XBMC...
The recently added info label does not check the "watched" status...
You need to incoporate this with RandomAndLastItems-Script based on smartplaylists...

You can delete the control for music in "IncludesRecentlyAdded.xml"...
Starting at line 1183...

Hello,

Weather-fanart works well in Confluence-MOD Smile

But, something seems a little funny:

Imagine you are in the night (local time) and the weather is good :
So, is displayed in Home/Weather menu, an very sunny image with on the same screen, the local (night) time which contrasts with the sunny image Wink

-> Could the image displayed be adapted with the local time?
Example :
Good weather + night = clear moonlight landscape instead of hot sunny image Wink

Hi

This is a great Skin, thanks.

What I've been trying to find is a way to have Movies and TV Shows as a Main Menu heading and be able to link them to specific folders in my PC, and leave the Videos section just for my addons.

Is this possible?

Thanks

This should give you the idea how to change it...it's one word AFAIK

If I understand correctly, you do not use library mode?
If your using file mode, you need to setup a source for movies and shows and mark them as favorite...then add these two favorites to the main menu...
Is this what you want? Confused
