Yet Another Confluence Mod

Would like some feedback on the support for SimplePlaylists (WatchItLater) which is now in the official repo but version-1.1.0 is the latest and I think most stable.

To use the script right click while browsing media (Context Manu) and select the "Watch Later" option to add to the playlist. Or you could follow the directions in the script readme for binding to a keypress.

To watch the stuff in the playlist add the "Addon" to your main or sub menu, or select it from the addons browser.

I was having problems with it a few days ago when it came to adding hulu videos,
will look into it in a little bit.. doing a bit of system cleaning right now, Ubuntu had
seriously updated one of my systems this past week. The menu system is looking
really good.. thumbs up for the hardwork you have put into it.. the decrease from
10 to 9 on the videos balances it out, and in a way it cuts a little off resources too
so its a bit of a win win there.

EDIT: though at the time i was attempting to use the simpleplaylists I noticed I had
2 versions installed somehow.

Problem was the author changed the plugin name, so ATM it looks like there's 2 installed. You can remove the "v1.0.7" version. The latest release v1.1.0, (which is also on Mudisle Repo so may have atuo updated) is working alot better, well for me anyway.

Another addon I have fun with and was wondering how many users would like to see support for is Add-on Metadata Actors. Wife is well into actors birthdays and that sort of info. If I let her she'll spend more time going through the actors metadata than it takes to watch the movie

I added the metadata actors before and it worked great.. I wouldn't mind seeing it added
i think it would be a step in the right direction. the nice thing is finding out what movies
someone has been in easily and knowing what one might not have seen or have in
their collection yet, helping with purchasing decisions..

the issue i posted earlier was some conflict with moviesets plugin, after removing it the problem disappeared, as for narrowing down what it was conflicting with is another issue all together.

Hi!

I've just updated the skin to 1.1.2, but I can't see any background in the main menu. it is black. And when I play a music file I can't see the cdart spinning. Have I done something wrong?

Probably more my fault than yours Just fixed an issue like this a few days ago on my system. Just out of interest how did you do your update, through the repo or manually. Big problem with repo is it doesn't include the themes so if you had a theme selected and update to v1.1.2 you get a black background (fixed in next version).

You'll have to download your favourite theme files from wilson.joe's github You'll need a background.jpg, a colors.xml and a media.xbt Do not rename them but they have to be copied into the skin's background, colors and media folders as found on github. even if you don't use a theme it would be a good idea to copy the Textures.xbt from github (Actually just seen it's got a capital "T" - should be a small "t" as in textures.xbt)

there was few images like the default cd image missing from the /media subdirectory for the default blue theme to show it, I don't know how long those images where not there or what caused them to end up removed, but I added the missing ones back. If one was using the xbt files they would of been present and would of gone unnoticed as missing. If you re'git' the skin the problem maybe fixed now.

Ahh did I do a no no. that might explain why everything ended up black screen,
especially if they only had the xbt files in the folder.. One could possibly merge
there skin download with the theme git and they should place all the files where
they should go, I used the correct directory structure on the git for the colors, backgrounds,
media but either a merging the 2 or copy the one over the other.

EDIT: ok all themes contain the new images added to them for the new view
and i renamed the Textures.xbt to textures.xbt , I don't think I was having any
problem on my end, but see it fixes things for others.

@wilson.joe, hey Joe how big are all the themes added together, I could check but off to PM shift. If we don't push updates through too often - could probably get away with a 100meg skin. Would make it easier if themes were included - maybe favourite themes - I vote for trans series
