Dinamic colours... Changing depends on the day or night (from light blue to dark orange) Huh

?
Cool.
I think that paused screen and info screen (pressed I) should be different. Info should have more info on it. At least rating and directors name...

2. Check the Cinema Experience thread for how to install it. http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid=87563

Thanks,

For the second ( HTE ) i have downloaded it.I should add it in XBMC\addons where the repository.passion.xbmc.org is or under the program addon?
For the first there is not any update.Should i download it the whole skin again?

Dynamic was the wrong choice of words - how about selectable colors. ;-). I believe someone tried dynamic in the past and it wasn't possible.

It gets added via the addon manager. You have to install the repository in the link I posted and then install via addon manager.

The only way to get immediate updates is via git. Either the download link in the first post for via git pull.

Should have something out the door tomorrow. Just have to fix a few (I hope) textures. If you pull from git anytime in the next 24hrs or so you may see some white textures that used to be the blue/turquoise as I'm doing the changes.

Loving the skin. I would really love a "display extrathumbs on/off" on a few of the movie views, but other than that i'm loving it! Smile

Dumb question - but how do you get them to show up in this bar? i have the bar showing ESPNEWS - but nothing scrolls...
My regular RSS on the top is working right...

Also, the zip link on the fist page is direct to the Git repo. If I were to push an update right now, that zip would be current.

@hydog - that's an oversight on my part, I should have posted steps to modify the rssfeeds file to work with that. I'll post that later tonight or tomorrow.

Good morning to all of you
Opening the xbmc in Videos mode\enter it shows me the root folder the Video add-ons and the Add Sourse. I have rename the root folder i.e CINE PARADISE.
So i can see the folder and over of it the Cine Paradise.So far good.
But if you wait for 2-3 seconds because of the Zoom which Stoli created,the folder goes on the title and i can not read it. Is there any option to have the title of the folder in the upper left side of the screen,the same thing when we open a movie folder and then we can see the movie's title in the upper left side.
Also is there any possibility for the movies i have already watched to show any signal on the movie's case like an arrow which it will tell me not to watch this movie for both modes Videos and Movies
Thanks for your attention

You have to edit the /userdata/rssfeeds.xml file - I've posted mine below as an example. The items in set id="2" will display on the bottom feed.

Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>

<rssfeeds>

  <!--RSS feeds. To have multiple feeds, just add a feed to the set. You can also have multiple sets.-->

  <!--To use different sets in your skin, each must be called from skin with a unique id.-->

  <set id="1">

    <feed updateinterval="30">http://rss.cnn.com/rss/cnn_topstories.rss</feed>

    <feed updateinterval="30">http://feeds.feedburner.com/xbmc</feed>

  </set>

  <set id="2">

    <feed updateinterval="30">http://www.mpiii.com/scores/mlb.php</feed>

    <feed updateinterval="30">http://www.mpiii.com/scores/nfl.php</feed>

    <feed updateinterval="30">http://www.mpiii.com/scores/ncaa.php</feed>

  </set>

</rssfeeds>

Hope that helps.

Christmas Update - Color Support - stoli - 2010-12-25

All kinds of color goodness added... Orange, Red, Dark Red, Blue, Dodgers Blue (my new fave) Cyan, pick a color and I can add it. Cool

Some samples:

Merry Christmas!

Edit: I've noticed a few dialogs and a couple of textures that I missed. I'll get them in the next day or so.
