setting ShowBackgroundVideo not found - vichingo - 2012-03-06

Hi,

I'm trying to understand the inner workings of the confluence skin.

In the includes file I find:
Code:
<include>CommonMediaPlayingBackground</include>

I found the include in INcludesBackgroundBuilding with the code:

Code:
<control type="image">
   <posx>0</posx>
   <posy>0</posy>
   <width>1280</width>
   <height>720</height>
   <texture>special://skin/backgrounds/media-overlay.png</texture>
   <visible>Player.HasVideo + !Skin.HasSetting(ShowBackgroundVideo)</visible>
</control>

How or where (in what file) is the setting ShowBackgroundVideo set?

since it's a skin setting, you'll most likely find it in custom_SkinSetting_1111.xml

indeed .. found it... stupid me.. but follow-up question... how is the setting kept? database or file based?

GuiSettings.xml in the userdata folder.
