HNY to everybody.

Are you planning on adding the cast list back to the info screen?

Actually it's not. Smile What you are seeing is the background being added to the info screen which is slightly smaller than the regular background. I'll work with the animations to see if it can be done a little more seamless.

@JackieBrown - the cast never went away - it's the second button on the info screen. Just look at the screen shot 7 posts up and this one:

Other items on the menu/button bar can be seen just by scrolling to the right.

I'll push a bunch of small tweaks I did this weekend later today, nothing major as I actually used the system this weekend instead of constantly changing it. :-)

I'll look again when I get home... I checked it on the TV view.

I really like this skin btw

Just double checked - the TV view is still the same, just with a smaller button bar. I haven't changed that one yet since there are 3 different views with different images available on each; poster/banner, poster/thumb/fanart...

Glad you like the skin... Almost ready for a prime time release.

My only major complaint is that there are four rows, and the view has to scroll up or down to view the top or bottom row.

I would really like it if there was a "Large Wall" view, that only untilized three rows, and there was no cropping of posters, or scrolling up and down.

I have to admit, wall view has always been one of my least favorite and is almost always disabled in whatever skin I use. So.... I'll look at it eventually, but it is not high on my to-do list at the moment. Feel free to mod it and if it works well, I'll be more than happy to add it in.

is it possible that the Smart playlist editor is broken in your skin? it works in confluence but nothing happens when I do it using neon.

Indeed it was. I just pushed a fix. Nod

Should be good to go. Had to exit and restart xbmc.

@ stoli

Please could you point me in the right direction for adding another view mode in MyMusicSongs.xml (which is music filemode), I've got my new view running fine in videos & both libraries, But just cant seem to work it out since MyMusicSongs.xml does'nt use <views> </views>

Thanks

- stoli - 2011-01-02

@buges - I'll have to check when I get home.

- JackieBrown - 2011-01-03

Apparently the cast and other choices go away when you have kiosk set.

I guess that solves that - Thanks

Other two questions:
1- i've added a music video source, but there's no direct link in the main menu (Film, HD movies, etc.)
2- how can translate in italian?

1. Add the source to your favorites and then you can add the favorite to the menu in skin settings > home menu.

2. Grab the strings.XML from the /skin.neon/languages/English folder and use that as a base. When you are done i can add it in for everyone.

Thanks,
