Hi guys, i´m a brazilian guy and this is my first thread here and i hope that u can help me with a configuration in XBMC lastest beta version running in my AppleTV2.

In the music player interface when i press and hold the center button of remote control the app goes to the full screen interface when we can select Lyrics, change the audio visualisations and configure the interface.

When i go to this interface in the first 10 seconds in the screen appears the CD running the artist information, album information, the time elapsed and remaining, but after 10 seconds this information desapear.

My question is: where i can change it to not disapear. I already change every single configuration option and i cant find it.

If some expert provide any help it will be very much apreciated.

I suspect that there's no button available for it on the apple remote. It's normally the I key on the keyboard I think.

You can change it via an advancedsetting though - check the wiki page on advancedsettings.xml:

Is there any way that this feature can be made to operate using a Harmony?

Also, is there any quicker way to bring up the lyrics? Two long button presses, scroll to the right, another button press...all seems a little unnecessary. (Certainly the second long press seems unnecessary - why don't the little icons under the "progress" bar show by default?)

Finally, if I may, is there any way to get the lyrics to automatically scroll in time to the music?

Thanks

You have to set it in the keymap. Take a look at

http://wiki.xbmc.org/index.php?title=Alt...l_for_ATV2

You can set a spesific key for this. I would say it is ok if you put it in the sort press of the "select" key. Tell me if you have any questions ( I am busy right now to be more specific. Tomorrow it will be fine)

I don't think it can be done in ATV2 with less presses. It is the apple remote that can't be "programmed" with more "functions"
