+----- Thread: [WIP] Neon - a new skin for XBMC (/showthread.php?tid=83337)
- "wkf" - 2011-01-31
Hi I just joined firstly to say thanks for a great skin
I have only been using xbmc for a few weeks (ex meedio user), so still working my way round slowly. I am trying to put a partymode on submenu like somebody done in aeon nox
10.) Added Party Mode the the Music submenu on the Home Screen by inserting the following to Home.xml at line #451
Code:
<item id="90121">
<label>Party Mode</label>
<onclick>XBMC.PlayerControl(PartyMode(music))</onclick>
<visible>Container(9000).HasFocus(3)</visible>
</item>
I have tried doing that, but i figure as its a different skin is why it is not working, i would be very gratefull if someone could help
Many Thanks
WKF

@wkf - I had something similar in my setup some time ago. I'll take a look and see how I did it. I'm pretty sure just adding a playlist to favorites and then adding that favorite did not work, but it's worth a shot until I can look into it. (I'm done looking at any more XML for the evening - it's Jager time!)
Glad you like the skin
@all - thoughts on the new menu highlight/selection bar?
Thanks,

Just wondering if this has PVR support? The skin looks amazing, but I am running the PVR build of dharma and finding skins that support PVR is a bit difficult.

Good morning to all
@ Stoli Now Yes , it is perfect both in Posters and Showcase as well
I like the Appearance new colours and especially the Florida orange.
And now the playing bar is the same with Confluence.
A last request. May we have the letter's size a little bit bigger like in the Night?
Thanks a lot for your replies and also for fixing the problems

No to the jumbo fonts that Night uses. That was the first thing I changed...

No pvr support as I don't have one to test with. Does Confluence support it? If so I can probably adapt what is there pretty easily.

It was a lot simpler than I thought:
Create a playlist
Add playlist to favorites
Settings > Skin > Homescreen > Custom Home
Add New entry - call it whatever you want
Select playlist from Favorites.
Done.

Hey,
I'm looking to modify the "Movies" link to point to a custom smart playlist I have created, as the final step of this thread: http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid=90850. Inside which .xml file is this to be found, I can't find it.
Also, I'm trying to add an Al Jazeera streaming link to the menu, I have created a .strm file, which file do I need to edit to run it from the menu, custom_DialogFavourites.xml seems promising?
Thanks for your help and a great addon!
- stoli - 2011-02-02
Rather than modify the Movies link, why not just add your playlist as a favorite, and then add that to the home menu?
I think you can add the strm file as a source, then add that source as a favorite and as above, add the favorite to the home menu.

Because due to the hacky way I've had to get XBMC showing my documentaries in my library under a single TV "show", they all now show as movies along with all my real movies, which is a big subtraction to the SAF
She doesn't want to see "9-11: The Calls From The Towers" after 7 Pounds and 8 Mile unfortunately.stoli Wrote:I think you can add the strm file as a source, then add that source as a favorite and as above, add the favorite to the home menu.
Oh excellent! Thanks for your help there...I'll give it a try once I get control of the TV back
Is there a particular method to adding a favourite to the home menu, do I just edit that XML file I referenced before? Sorry, this is the first time I've ever actually come across the need to edit a skin.
EDIT: Ignore that second point...just saw your post a few above!
