[MOD] Cirrus Extended v2

cased Wrote:Any way to do it automatically? or do I have to go in and do them all manually?

Thanks!

Yes, go to System --> Skin --> Extended Mod --> and press Logo Downloader Script ... it will scan through your library and set everything:
Banner, Poster, Logo etc. , but you won't be able to choose the artwork, it makes it automatically.

Yo dudes,

first part to reach pre-eden compatibility is done ...
ofcourse i'll keep you informed when the first TEST release is out ...

Cheers

So what will we be looking forward to in the next release (pre-eden)?

Really looking forward to this as it will save me a few clicks when im watching movies and thats always a good thing.

As for things to add, what choices do we have what are the limitations?

I would like to see these:
Trailer fullscreen
Trailer windowed
Cinema full screen
Cinema windowed
Tv tunes

And depending on limitations I could defo think of a few things to add

Amazing work though bro, and dam fast too!

OK, I'll try to do some more on this soon.

I think Trailer fullscreen, Trailer windowed, Cinema full screen, Tv tunes, Play video fullscreen, Play video windowed should all be fairly straightforward (hope I don't have to eat those words later...).

Cinema windowed - I'm not sure this is so easy as I think the script would have to have the option built in to launch video in a preview window. I'll check with the author, but (in my opinion) it seems a bit counter-intuitive: a Cinema Experience shoud be video playing on the biggest screen possible. Maybe just me...

I'll check what he says and let you know whether we can do it.

Cool,

It maybe just specific to me, but I'd like to have an option to launch cinema in a window so that I can have the trailers and features play in the window while I look for a second film etc to queue up... Once my "now its time for the feature presentation" I'd hit my full screen button and watch the movie. I really only use cinema for the trailers and the "feature presentation" clip but your right, for those who use the quiz etc a window would be no use to them.

Still loving the road map though and these options will bring a miriad of new and exciting ways to impress the other half she loves the media centre and is as astounded as I am at the work you guys have done.

Slighty off topic question... Is there anyway to disable the weather updates from xbmc altogether? I've noticed serious issues with my player when it updates weather constantly? Can it be force set to NOT refresh every time I return to the home screen? Or to refresh only when I actually click Into the weather menu?

I've posed the question to the cinema experience script developer so we'll what he comes back and says.

As for your Weather question, not sure it's possible - I don't think there's anything in settings or advancedsettings that do that, and I don't think the refresh is triggered by the skin (but I'll check).

Hey el_Paraguayo, have you had a chance to check out the weather forecast video for weather+ yet?

I tried taking a quick look, but I can't even get video to play in the Transparency skin!

I'll take a look again at the weekend but it's going to be hard for me to do if I haven't got a working video in a different skin to start from.

Hey butcha, found something else the other day. Can we please have a codec/media flag for 7.1 channel audio. The 5.1 shows fine however a 7.1 doesn't exist.
