INSTRUCTIONS

1. Place the flags folder in the media folder of Confluence.
2. Replace the old IncludesCodecFlagging.xml and ViewsVideoLibrary.xml (backup just in case it doesn't work) with the new one in the 720P folder of Confluence.


OPTIONS

How to use white or small white instead of colors. Colors are easier to distingish at a glance. Just replace the images in the flags folder with the one in the flags-white and flags-small white folder.

INFO for default
G - Green
PG - Yellow
PG 13 - Orange
R - Red
NC-17 - Dark Red

Note: Always backup all files. I'm not responsible for anything that doesn't work. USA Ratings only. This is for Confluence skin only. I would like to thank migueld for the small mpaa icons.

Enjoy. Comments welcome.

Version 1 - 11/25/09

I like knowing the rating for when I have family over and for my son. Here is my solution. I included color and white images. Default is color. You have to replace them with the ones in the other folder to have white.

well done - stealth12 - 2009-11-26 05:09

Sweet! works like a charm!

Props for the first MOD of Confluence

I personally though find the images way to hard to read which makes then look messy plus they are hard coded english too. If someone can come up with some nicer generic looking ones that fit the skin I'll look into adding them officially

Thanks. I was thinking of just doing some square ones. The reason I color coded them was because they were hard to read.

I like this one seems like it would fit the theme better

- stealth12 - 2009-11-26 07:59

I agree that they would look better i still like the color code idea, are they the right size and format to just replace the ones from the original mod? i am very new to all this but i want to try Tongue

EDIT: I just jumped in feet first Smile i colored the icons and then edited the includecodecsflagging so they were 100x45 seems to work ok but there not quite in the right position(X-Y kind of position) to line up with the others where does that value come from? is it set in another xml? hmmmm..... i might i have to go digging lol

I made these in vector format which should be easier to manipulate:
