I have been working on a replacement with this in mind that keeps thing looking nice with the most useful info but does not take the whole screen.

yeah, do as you please..

This is what I have so far for the visualizer screen, based on the Aeon skin cdArt MOD but with option to turn the cdArt on/off. Is there anything that anyone would like changed/added? Poor quality Youtube video here. I have a bit of testing to do before I upload the MOD.

i think that one is pretty cool and has enough info for that view.

Yes, I was talking about this screen:

And my question is if there is a way to switch to this screen automatically after some time when playing music and no key is pressed (instead of the screensaver).

this screen is the music visualisation screen. it's the one you usualy get when you play music and do nothing for a given time. if you want to pop-up this info, hit "i" while it's running. some skins might add the possibility to have that info available all the time, dunno if rapier supports it.

if you don't like the visualisations, don't use them (although i dunno if that info window still comes up if there is no visualisation running - go test that).

having a small issue with this mod that i hope someone can help me with..

Seems the bottom panel/border/what to call it is sort of dimmed. Anyone know whats causing it and how to make it look like it should?

I can see no reason why this would happen. Does it happen in the original Rapier also?

I had this issue, removing the wall view include in myvideonav.xml seems to solve it Confused

Actually, I just checked mine again and it is indeed dim. I will check out the code and find out why.

OK I have fixed it now. I will upload later but for those wanting a fix now just do the following.

Open up the file ViewsVideo.xml and the last 5 lines read as follows:

</control>
<include>ViewsScreenFullFadeAnim</include>
<include>ViewsDialogPopUpScreenDim</include>
</control>
</include>
</includes>

alter this part so it reads:

</control>
<include>ViewsScreenFullFadeAnim</include>
<include>ViewsDialogPopUpScreenDim</include>
<control type="group">
<description>Bottom Bar Area</description>
<posy>BottomPaneOffsetY</posy>
<include>InfoPaneImage</include>
<include>InfoPaneMediaDetails</include>
</control>
</control>
</include>
</includes>
