Edit:

I ran through and renamed my iso files to "name.1080p.bluray.iso" and they are atill not showing up as 1080p or HD. So is there another flag I am missing? I am really starting to get confused.

First, BD is a storage medium and that's the only definition, it has nothign to do with 1080p or anything, the things in the storage medium are whatever.

About the second, I was wrong, Resolution is taken only from the information contained by the file, so you are out of luck here. To show it as 1080p you will have to code it into the skin files as well as name the files 1080p as I told, later I'll tell you how.

Well, This is not a skin issue. I Have done some testing just to find out if in fact XBMC is working as a full on "Blu-Ray Player". And at this time with the current "Nighty build". It is not. You are confusing the fact that XBMC will play .m2ts stream files for a Bur-ray player. And as XBMC has no real idea what a Blu-Ray disk ISO file is or what to do with it. It can't display the flagging info. Now if you was to take your .m2ts files from your .iso's and place them in the right folders for your library. You will get the flaggings that you are looking for.

IE:

x:\Movies\Avatar\ExtraFanArt\lotsofimages1.jpg
x:\Movies\Avatar\ExtraFanArt\lotsofimages2.jpg
x:\Movies\Avatar\ExtraFanArt\lotsofimages3.jpg
x:\Movies\Avatar\ExtraFanArt\lotsofimages4.jpg
x:\Movies\Avatar\ExtraThumbs\thumb1.jpg
x:\Movies\Avatar\ExtraThumbs\thumb3.jpg
x:\Movies\Avatar\ExtraThumbs\thumb3.jpg
x:\Movies\Avatar\ExtraThumbs\thumb4.jpg
x:\Movies\Avatar\Avatar.m2ts
x:\Movies\Avatar\Avatar.nfo
x:\Movies\Avatar\Avatar.tbn
x:\Movies\Avatar\Avatar-fanart.jpg

Then you would see the flaggins that you are looking for.

Again. This is not a skin issue. It is a XBMC issue

Sorry if this disappoints you.

Open IncludesCodecFlagging.xml located at C:\Users\User Name\AppData\Roaming\XBMC\addons\skin.night\720p

and add this:

Code:

<includes>

    <include name="VideoCodecFlaggingConditions"><!--Custom Flags-->

        <control type="image">

            <description>Video rez Image</description>

            <width>54</width>

            <height>40</height>

            <aspectratio>keep</aspectratio>

            <texture>$INFO[ListItem.VideoResolution,flagging/video/custom/,.png]</texture>

            <visible>!IsEmpty(ListItem.VideoResolution)</visible>

        </control>
