Thanks again guys... since being a squeaky wheel requesting this feature years ago, to Ronie developing an existing script to this with Eden now... the main reason why I was very happy to donate $50 to xbmc...
I struggled to make this add on work with Eden, as I thought it would be as easy as to go to Settings > Add-Ons > Program Add-Ons > Artist Slideshow and then to download and enable that.
This did not work in Confluence skin.
I then went to the wiki, and found, under "How to use this addon in your skin" a bunch of very technical detals which were not expaining how to use the addon... but has Changes to MusicVisualisation.xml, To run the script: <onload>RunScript(script.artistslideshow)</onload> etc...
Nowhere on the wiki that I could see is there an explanation of how to add this addon, and to me its a pity cos its an uber-fantastic thing of great joy... next best thing to holding a real album cover in your hands...
Please add on the Ops, fist post, that to make this work with the default xbmc skin, you must download the zip file in post 2, then unzip those files and copy them to C:\Program Files (x86)\XBMC\addons\skin.confluence\720p (or equivalent) replacing the existing ones.
At the moment I am trying to figure if this will work with Transparency! which is my skin of choice... is it compatible, how do I make that work?
Thanks again for the fantastic work...
Mark.
Thanks,
Mark
