[MOD] Horizontal Confluence Modded

Hello mad-max

I think i've found a problem in your skin wiith RandomFanArt script ( in music visualisation ).

Picture displayed are stretched to full screen ( they dont keep their aspect ratio)
I tried with another skin to find if it was a problem of the script or the skin.
And it seems that is in your skin ... (sorry)
(tried in Aeon Nox)

Thank You

Hey mardup,

long time no speak man...welcome back...
IIRC I made the image 1280x720 to fit fullscreen...might change this, but I had a lot of pictures with terrible quality in there, so I set size to that large...

You might change this in MusicVisualization.xml



Should be sufficient to delete the size tags...

The buttons are in DialogVideoInfo.xml...
Best way is to search for the Addon-IDs...
Then delete the two controls...
If you need more assistance just ask...

Yeah, I found it, thanks! Any way I can enable kiosk mode in music files view as well?? That would be the frosting on the cherry on the icing on the top of this delicious cake!

I remember putting a kiosk mode in Rapier 2.0 a couple of years ago, but I really didn't have any idea what I was doing, and I partially followed two separate tutorials for other skins. It somehow worked though. Only, I don't feel like going through that arduous process again..

TIA again

Kiosk mode is also available in music section...
Just checked the old commit to be sure:

Okay, but is that in Files view as well? Because I have some radio streams listed in Files view (not Library), and pressing left still slides out the sorting pane. Even with kiosk mode enabled.

Or could I have messed something up myself by going into some xmls? I only edited DialogVideoInfo for the extra buttons and ViewMovieRightList (or such, forgot actual name) to add the word 'minutes' after the runtime label.

Hah...that's tricky...kiosk mode can only work in db view as the visible statement is coded in my music nav panel...
Will look into this...I would say, it's a bug...

Hey MM,

tx for your hard work, skin looks and feels great. Got a feature request for an update some time:

in the movie showcase view, it would be nice if all movie info (e.g. like fan art view) would pop up if you press "up".

cheers!

You might change this in MusicVisualization.xml

Code:

        <control type="image">
            <description>visualisation background</description>
                <posx>0</posx>
                <posy>0</posy>
                <width>1280</width>
                <height>720</height>
           <!-- <colordiffuse>eeeeeeee</colordiffuse> -->
                <visible>!Visualisation.Enabled + Skin.HasSetting(fanartinhome) + !Skin.HasSetting(CDWallNoVisualisation)</visible>
                <texture fallback="Fanart_Fallback_Music_Small.jpg">$INFO[MusicPlayer.Property(Fanart_Image)]</texture>
        </control>

Hello,
thanks for your answer ...

In fact,
Through you answer , knowing that I should look in the file MusicVisualization.xml, in the "Artist_Slideshow" part of the file, i found


Changing to


... it resolves my problem.

Just one last thing : when the SlideShow begins, it don't clear the background, so when pictures doesn't fetch the whole screen, we see part of the background ( FanArt of the artist playing )

Do you have an idea to set the backgound to black when the slideShow begins ?

Alright, I'll be patient then.

Cheers for all the help so far and keep this great mod up!

You might introduce a black background that is visiible if ArtistSlideshow is active and lay it under the slideshow itself...
