Ok I figured out why studio icons didn't work for me.

In the Includes_MediaFlags.xml from anoobie the path to the studio icons is "flags/studios/..." but in normal Aeon Auriga it is just "flags/...". Maybe you can change this. Or is this on purpose? If so you should explain this in your first post where you can download the files so everyone knows he has to move the studio icon files.

Otherwise just replace all "flags/studios/" with "flags/" in that file and it works.

i have a new problem since updating to the newest mod files, my aeon menus have all 'darkened' significantly, like the contrast has been turned way up all of a sudden and all the fanart and covers all become extremely hard to see . . if i revert to default aeon auriga, it goes back to normal.

Maybe this has to do with the overlay anoobie added to darken the background in Multiplex View. I have already tried to work around the fact, that the upper menu (where you can switch views, turn on/off fanart etc) can hardly be read but I have almost no clue concerning skinning/modding so I didn't make any progress yet.

But all the other views look fine for me.

Ignore above. Someone helped me with it already.

I've got an issue with the 576i icon, see:

It's probably an easy fix, could someone help point me in the right direction?

anoobie,

I saw that DJH updated his MultiPlex view on github to use the new "background loader".

It should speed up loading of images / background images etc.

Could you update your MOD's to take advantage of that too?

Thanks Smile

thanks alot.

look for this
Code:
<control type="textbox" id="38">
                <visible>IsEmpty(Container(52).listitem.property(fanart_image))</visible>
                <posx>0</posx>
                <posy>20</posy>
                <width>640</width>
                <height>360</height>
                <label>$INFO[ListItem.Plot]</label>
                <autoscroll delay="35000" time="2000" repeat="20000">Skin.HasSetting(allowscroll)</autoscroll>
                <font>Plot</font>
                <textcolor>FFFFFFFF</textcolor>        
                <animation effect="fade" start="100" end="25" time="1000" condition="Player.HasVideo">Conditional</animation>
            </control>

and change it to this
Code:
    <control type="multiimage" id="38">
                <visible>IsEmpty(Container(52).listitem.property(fanart_image))</visible>
                    <posx>0</posx>
                <posy>20</posy>
                <width>640</width>
                <height>360</height>
                    <fadetime>500</fadetime>
                    <timeperimage>3000</timeperimage>
                    <randomize>true</randomize>                    
                    <imagepath diffuse="list/list_episodeicon_mask.png" background="true">$INFO[Container(52).ListItem.Path,,extrathumbs]</imagepath>
                    <bordertexture border="-24">list/list_movieicon_frame.png</bordertexture>    
                </control>

I've included studios folder inside the flags folder for your convenience in the latest upload. It is a more comprehensive list of studios than the ones supplied by default.

It's been doing that since I first did this mod. You just have to get the latest xbmc to take advantage of it.

Edit: Actually I just took a look again and I only did that to extrathumbs slideshows. I just added background loading to the wraplist so scrolling should now be super smooth. Thanks.
