[quote=ronie]I don't have an xbox, but there should be a ..\skin\PM3.HD\media
and ..\skin\PM3.HD\720p folder somewhere too.

That's where I placed the files originally but when the cases didn't show up I assumed I was doing it wrong. I deleted all the cache files etc and am using the latest t3ch build but can't get either frame to show. :confused2: Thanks for all your help, and like an above poster said this deserves to be integrated into PM3HD.

Not sure what's causing the problem on the xbox. I've downloaded the latest T3CH build, extracted the skin and tested it on a linux pc. It's working fine.
Maybe there's some issue with the dvdcase image, maybe the xbox can't handle certain types of .png files? I'll check if there's anything 'wrong' with the image files.

As for other views, i've just finished 'media info', 'dvd thumbs', 'list' and 'thumbnail' view for the video library. Currently i'm working on those views for the music library.
I will look into the visualization and home views next. Maybe, just maybe, i'll have a go at the coverflow view too.

I downloaded the PM3.HD skin from the SVN and added the files and built the xpr file but I still can't get the frames to show.

I'll upload a new version in a few days. Hopefully it will give less issues on the xbox, but there's no way for me to test this.

It will have support for other views, besides fanart, too.

Besides displaying the CD & DVD case in fanart mode, many other view modes are now supported in version 2.0 of this mod.

Here are some examples of what is supported:

You can find the updated download links in the first post of this topic.

any chance of a compatible home xml for the PM3.HD_TV_Movies Mod

which includes the Movies link and TV Shows

more specifically IllumiNaughtys modded version of this which further removes videos option and replaces it with programs.

found here.

or alternativly just post lines of code and tell me where to place them in the home xml

Can someone add these to the original pmIII?

I love this mod, I would love it more if the cd and dvd cases matched better. Is it possible to make a shorter version of the dvd case for cd's. I just like across the board consistency. One of the versions of Horizons had a mod like this. Either way it is a fresh look for PMII and long overdue. I love it!

Did a quick test and it seems both home.xml as well as includes.xml need some modifications to get this to work with the PM3.HD_TV_Movies Skin.

I'll see what i can do. Shouldn't be to hard, so expect a compatible version tomorrow.
