Following a research on xbmc forum and not understanding too well the xml file, I ask your help,

I would like the first photo edit what is circled in red, remove the black tape dark style, reduce the size posters (I used a template for the size I would like)

You need to learn about skinning if you want to make this sort of mod.

Check the wiki out. It has lots of info to get you started.

hello,
i read the xml I learned a little,
I find a poster xml :

<include name="ShowCasePoster">
<posx>49</posx>
<posy>8</posy>
<width>123</width>
<height>154</height>
<aspectratio align="center" aligny="bottom">stretch</aspectratio>
</include>

but now I want to make skin transparency as to poster



but i no found tape black in xml, marcosqui help me ^^

Remember that any changes you make to the code will be flushed every time the skin gets updated, so better keep a copy of these.
To simply remove the black shadow, open MyVideoNav.xml, find and delete the following (probably around lines 288-296):

Code:

    <control type="image">
    <posx>0</posx>
    <posy>0</posy>
    <width>1280</width>
    <height>300</height>
    <texture flipy="true">shadow_mask.png</texture>
    <colordiffuse>F9000000</colordiffuse>
    <animation effect="fade" end="75" condition="true">Conditional</animation>
    </control>

Changing the size of the posters is a bit more difficult to achieve.

omg thank you, thank you

and poster idea ?

[CutSickAss]

As I said, changing the poster size is harder. First of all you should open ViewsShowCase.xml, and find the following around line 60:

Code:

    <include name="ShowCaseCase">
    <posx>56</posx>
    <posy>43</posy>
    <width>152</width>
    <height>212</height>
    <aspectratio align="center" aligny="bottom">stretch</aspectratio>
    </include>

If you edit the values of width/height you can change the size of the poster, and posx/posy changes the position. But this is only the beginning... all the similar values of width/height, posx/posy between lines 5-128 must be edited accordingly (don't just copy them over, it will take you a while to get them just right). Also, you'll probably have to change several other posx/posy in other parts of the code, such as in lines 170-171, 356, 528, etc., but I could be wrong about this.
