xbmc intro - rflores2323 - 2012-03-19

I was wondering if neon could integrate the new xbmc intro addon in the passion repo. It basically removes the static xbmc splash page and inserts a video files at startup.

The thread discussion is located here

The addon post is located here

Cool

Preview of some intros, see below

I have added this using the DIY method, with the lower of the two videos you posted.

It looks bloody good but needs some work as there is a brief delay before it begins during which time the home menu is visible, and also the 'tv guide updated' box pops up during playback.

If it was tightly integrated with the skin it would be brilliant!


RE: xbmc intro - rflores2323 - 2012-03-20

yeah I am hoping that stoli can integrate it. *crosses fingers*


RE: xbmc intro - stoli - 2012-03-20

Working on it now. Running into a few issues, but it should be there by the end of the day.

Update: Done and pushed to Git. If you get a black screen, just press escape or back and then check you settings under Skin > General > Startup Window. Only one should be selected, playlist or video, but not both. If you still encounter issues, a skin reset will be in order.


RE: xbmc intro - rflores2323 - 2012-03-20

So you integrated the addon with the skin? Do we still have to download the addon?

You do still have to download the addon.

RE: xbmc intro - stoli - 2012-03-21

thanks


RE: xbmc intro - stoli - 2012-03-21

Then it won't work. You have to be using the SVN version. I will not be pushing to the official repo until some time in April.

That's one of the videos included in the add-on.


RE: xbmc intro - rflores2323 - 2012-03-25

Stoli. thank you very much for adding this into the skin. My setup has two profiles on it. (kids and main) the xbmc intro starts up after I select the profile. I thought this was suppose to start up before I enter the profile section? I still get the xbmc splash, then profile select, then intro, and then neon skin. So basically every time I log in to the profile I get the startup intro which is ok but wanted to check that this was how it was intended to function.


Appreciate it and GREAT WORK.

That video uses a font called danube which can be gotten on several free font sites. (I did not make this video, I just have the same font on my system). Its very similar to the XBMC font. Only the X is different. I have looked everywhere for an XBMC logo font and can't find one. The danube font does work very well for an xmbc logo if you use two C's and flip one backwords. Anyway, it would be much easier for me to make XBMC intro vids if I had the correct font. If anyone knows what it is then please, by all means send me a pm.


RE: xbmc intro - bertybassett - 2012-08-04
