BTW about the repo icons, some of the repositories does not have one, but in this case we will display the default one, that's not a big deal.
anarchintosh Wrote:i updated the wiki pageThanks a lot, we will just need to add the icons now, recently I also have added all the repo I could find
anarchintosh Wrote:also, i was thinking that it should auto-install the passion xbmc repo, because thats where it gets it's updates from.I can add it as a default option, so we won't force anybody to have passion-XBMC repo
anarchintosh Wrote:perhaps there should also be an 'Install all repositories' item as well?That's a great idea, especially that doesn't heart since XBMC allow to enable/disable the installed repositories
anarchintosh Wrote:this thread should really get stickied, and the old '[Collection] Additional Addons Repositories (Unofficial/Third-Party/Developers Repos)' unstickied.Yes, that would avoid too much repetitive questions in the future
hudo Wrote:A small suggestion.Thanks hudo for updating the wiki.
I've noticed there are a lot of repos out there. Python section as a few. Skins a few more, etc.
Shouldn't we try to organize the wiki to reflect that? I mean organize repos by category.
Something like:
General repos (contains a lot of things)
Skins
Plugins
Video
etc
Also a link in the wiki to the forum thread, if available, would be nice.
What do you guys think?

Why not one 'unofficial' repository?

Temhil Wrote:- Since it is a progam addon, it does not work as a video addon so when I set the addon item info such as plot and title, it does not display when I press info (I am usually setting the info for a video addon) .
I asked on the developer section, and apparently it is like that for the program addon.
The only way to display the info is either like I did or I have to create a WindowXML that will be called and display the info (like nuka did with the SVN Repo Installer). The only problem with this option is that won't match to the design of the skin (little bit like a script if you want).
But if you know another way, please let me know I would love to do it.
What I can do for not is:
- removing the bold on the title
- making optional the description as part of the title
- making optional the color on the description in the title
- set the item info in case some skin supports it (if it is the case please let me know which one so I can test)
- add KiSUAN's fanart, is it the one you post earlier?
- I can totally add the icon if the URL is available in the wiki, it could be embedded in a image tag, in order to be displayed in html, it shouldn't be an issue to retrieve it.
I will probably to do that over the weekend, earlier if I can (or part of it)
Any other suggestion?
