[MOD] Cirrus Extended v2

But the problem is, what if you see the fanart and it's too late and jumps to the next one?

Yep, that's where I got stuck in my thinking too!

Another option could be to increase the timerperimage.
Or another idea, something like "recently fanarts"

There are multiimage controls. 1 picks for what you've choosen in the background settings, the other one randomizes the video library (tvshows and movies).
Really don't know which of your ideas is better. But maybe i think no 2 is indeed thr better one. But the problem is, what if you see the fanart and it's too late and jumps to the next one?

Exactly! The idea is nice, but you're going to have to be quick to use it.

I think it would be too much work to make a script to keep track of what the background was and then decide, based on the amount of time since the new image was displayed, which film it should play!

So, the real issue will be for Butcha to find a quick way to get the script to run! (See what I did there? I made it a problem for Butcha to solve!! )

Could we just have something like pressing down (on horizontal menu) or (left on vertical), or are these being used already?

On down or on left will bring you to the buttons, power, favorites, playdisc and global search if they are visible. But shouldn't be a problem to press down twice with a conditional control.
Now we have both a problem, haha

Good pick!
And then what? Rather than just play the movie, maybe it would be smarter to bring the info panel of the movie? This way you could decide to watch, play trailer or just read the plot.

Forget virtual Hi-5.. Xxx from me fro thadding that The fanart screens look great. Just what i wanted. Really nice option bro, looks great!

Butch, one question... Currently im getting an image appear when no fan art is available, its a "Cirrus-ex" style image and for the life of me i cant find it so that i can change it.. i have searched for jpeg, png and have searched the folders but i just want to replace it with a black image? Any ideas? Although i suppose this point is null considering there is now an option for this when i get the svns installed.

I'm on eden now, using a nightly and just configuring things as we speak... Once its all doen ill get my finder out and see how it all looks.. but so far 2.0.6 on eden is ok.. its not much faster than dharma though, ive enabled dirty regions and dds as usual but overall the speed increas is not massive between dharma and eden (imo)...

Down side is some of my plugins dont work very well.. iPlayer is well flakey lol ... only just got to watch the F1 and that was after 4 reboots lol.

Looking forward top the new movie info screen too, looks fantastic with the trailer etc being in there. Cant wait to get it all up and running and will keep you posted...

Hi Pat,
The problem now is that textures are compressed, so what you can do with the stable cev2 is to download uncompressed texture (media folder) in the first post, delete textures.xbt and replace with the files inside the downloaded media folder. The you can just delete or replace the cirrus image.
