That is true. However, I would be happy if the team would consider it from the other point of view - when you what to quickly distinguish what items you started to watch but you did not finish, regardless of the fact if you watched them before i.e. If I'm watching an already watched item in progress status is more helpfull. Item will be marked as watched again once I'm finished.

It depends - skinner may choose to include both watched flags and mark item as "in progress" so adding it as overlay icon isn't really good option for flexibility (f.e. http://dl.dropbox.com/u/28792047/xbmc/screenshot037.png - my proof of concept sshot, don't worry - it's not in master ;P). You can use 2 controls with different visiblity conditions to get desired effect (and hopefully soon You will be able to use just 1 control and skin variable )

@pieh

Thanks for added info, now I know what to do in the skin.

Player.Volume is returning -60,0 for me in on OS X, 12.9.2011 build?

pieh Wrote:Added partially watched info:
boolean condition: ListItem.IsResumable
and text label / numeric value (for progress controls / IntegerGreaterThan): ListItem.PercentPlayed (range [0, 100])

It seams that ListItem.IsResumable is updated on Window open/reload not immediately like ListItem.Overlay. Is this by design or can I hope that it will change?

it will still return a value on the [-60 - 0] scale when used with $INFO[]

only when using it with an IntegerGreaterThan() comparison it'll be on a [0 - 100] scale.

Thanks.

I thought that we got some user friendly labels (0-100) :-(

Thanks a lot. I'll just hide the label. Geeks can mod a skin to show decibels :-)


- pieh - 2011-09-13

it's just for IntegerGreaterThan, using Player.Volume in label will still display "-60.0 dB"

this commit: https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/commit/f4bb961a86f7a5ebe23bfa8d7da1b6893fc26662

adds 2 new dialogs to xbmc:

DialogPeripheralSettings.xml


- `Black - 2011-09-30

Where do they appear?


- Hitcher - 2011-09-30

This is what they look like in Confluence -

I'm guessing it's for the USB - HDMI-CEC Adapter
