Is it possible to change the main menu? I have no interest in the weather, photos or music. It would be nice of those things could be removed from the menu.

The main menu is hardcoded and would require a mod to change. When you have the main menu active, if you flip the menu left there are 7 customizable items and to the right are additional options (including shudown, etc).

A couple of options I would like to see are statistics of how many movies are in each genre and I have always wanted to mod a skin to play different theme for each genre when you enter it through the library. kind of like TV Tunes but with movie genres. I have no python skills so never tried it.

Just a little update. Development is progressing at a steady pace. Scary thing is, I'm actually helping now. We'll see how bad I can mess things up before ronie can't stand it any more Wink

You already made mockups for every window and dialog? Or you needed something else? :-)

Audiobooks ;-)

Here is the .nfo layout

PHP Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes" ?>
<album>
    <title>Title shown in View, usually fill with name of the Book/Collection</title>
    <artist>Writer</artist>
    <genre>Audiobook (this field is taged always audiobook so you can create the Album Smart Playlist</genre>
    <mood>Genre</mood>
    <review>Summary or Description of a Book/Collection</review>
    <type>SubTitle shown in the View, usually fill with breakdown of books of a Collection or such</type>
    <label>Person who Narrated/Read the book</label>
    <rating>As you wish</rating>
    <year>Year of published or Recorded, as you see fit</year>
</album> 

Here is what the end result is

Oh no. There is plenty left to create.graphics for. I'm just getting my hands dirty so-to-speak and working with Ronie to finish getting the movie and TV sections fleshed out. I've done a bunch of work (which probably would have taken Ronie an hour) and got the actor area working just about the way I want it, with the exception of some help we need from grajen3 again working out the RSS.

This is definitly on my list to do once we get to the music section - but we haven't even begun coding that yet.

Is there an Alpha or Beta we can download and play with yet? I can't wait to try this skin!

Negative. Nothing for public consumption yet.
