Obviously backup your Viewtype_Fanart.xml first then edit it & search for "Font_Panel" and change all instances to "Font_PosterTitle". That should give you the bigger font like the titles in the Poster Wrap view.

I'll look into it and post a patch if I can find what I did wrong. Still have a lot to learn.

My guess, or Sharpe (Backrow skin) had the same problem and helped me, said it is usually from having multiple id's but different visibles/conditions like:
Quote:<control type="fixedlist" id="54">
<visible>Container.Content(movies)</visible>
Quote:<control type="fixedlist" id="54">
<visible>Container.Content(tvshows)</visible>
Quote:<control type="fixedlist" id="54">
<visible>Container.Content(episodes)</visible>
I took a peek and think you're only using id="54" once so I'm stumped?

I needed to assign new ID numbers in the MyVideoNav.xml file with the <views> tag. I had figured it out thanks to a previous post by you in another thread. It seems you already helped me without even knowing it.

[EDIT] I should mention that the problem was also happening with the Panel view.
Anyway, Ive fixed it on my computer but I want to try fixing the VideoInfo/Cast problem before posting a new version.

Just curious, but will this work on 4:3 TVs? Trying to get an XBOX based XBMC setup on one without completely redoing a skin

However, with that being said, I use it on a 7 year old 32" CRT (4:3) TV but it displays in letterbox format via a HDMI cable connection from my computer. With the changes I made, I can comfortably read the text from 10 feet away on my couch.

@muggi
Also, just in case it will save you from doing your changes twice, I am doing some fixes that affect the MyVideoNav.xml file as well as others. I hope to post it tomorrow.

It works fine.... it look´s good... maybe an option for your (Amra´s) next release
Maybe with configurable (on/off)
here my MyVideoNav.xml:
Code:
<control type="largeimage">
<include>Dimensions_Fullscreen</include>
<fadetime>200</fadetime>
<texture>$INFO[ListItem.Property(Fanart_Image)]</texture>
<include>Animation_CommonFade</include>
<animation effect="zoom" start="110" end="130" center="auto" time="15000" tween="cubic" easing="inout" pulse="true" condition="!Skin.HasSetting(animation_bg)">Conditional</animation>
<animation effect="slide" start="-10,-10" end="20,20" time="7000" tween="cubic" easing="inout" pulse="true" condition="!Skin.HasSetting(animation_bg)">Conditional</animation>
<animation effect="rotate" center="360,640" start="-2" end="2" time="11000" tween="cubic" easing="inout" pulse="true" condition="!Skin.HasSetting(animation_bg)">Conditional</animation>
<visible>!Skin.HasSetting(hidefanart) + !Skin.HasSetting(hidePosterfanart)</visible>
</control>
<control type="largeimage">
<include>Dimensions_Fullscreen</include>
<fadetime>200</fadetime>
<texture>$INFO[ListItem.Property(Fanart_Image)]</texture>
<include>Animation_CommonFade</include>
<animation effect="zoom" start="110" end="130" center="auto" time="15000" tween="cubic" easing="inout" pulse="true" condition="!Skin.HasSetting(animation_bg)">Conditional</animation>
<animation effect="slide" start="-10,-10" end="20,20" time="7000" tween="cubic" easing="inout" pulse="true" condition="!Skin.HasSetting(animation_bg)">Conditional</animation>

<visible>!Skin.HasSetting(hidefanart) + Skin.HasSetting(hidePosterfanart) + !Control.IsVisible(50) + !Control.IsVisible(57)</visible>
</control>The Ken Burns Effect was stolen from another post..... maybe with a bit bad code....
but works
