Thanks for re-posting... I love this mod Big Grin

Hi guys I'm a noob so sorry if I'm being stupid. This is a very cool mod but I can't figure out how to apply it. I replaced the dialogseekbar.xml but nothing happens. What am I missing? Any help would be appreciated.

@reaven

Instead of having people dig into the .xml's would it just be easier to just use two blocks of code:

PHP Code:
<control type ="image"> 
                <description>tv show image</description>
                <posx>948</posx>     
                <posy>-26</posy>    
                <width>330</width>     
                <height>185</height> 
                <texture>$INFO[Player.FolderPath]../clearart.png</texture>
                <aspectratio>keep</aspectratio>
                <visible>VideoPlayer.Content(episodes) + Skin.HasSetting(clearART)</visible>
            </control>
            <control type ="image"> 
                <description>tv show image</description>
                <posx>948</posx>     
                <posy>-26</posy>    
                <width>330</width>     
                <height>185</height> 
                <texture>$INFO[Player.FolderPath]/clearart.png</texture>
                <aspectratio>keep</aspectratio>
                <visible>VideoPlayer.Content(episodes) + Skin.HasSetting(clearART)</visible>
            </control> 

*that code was from my skin not this mod

reaven · 2010-03-22, 19:40

you mean adding both condition to look for clearArts inside the folder where the episode reside and inside the folder where the folder with the episode reside(one folder back).

I don't know I don't like to much unnecessary code unless is really necessary, is just one line you have to edit depend how you episodes are organize. But is a good idea I was already using that in my music fanart slideshow mod to look for fanart inside the source music folder and for multiple images inside a local artist folder.

mcborzu · 2010-03-22, 23:10

Your call, while all this seems simple for us many new users have trouble just installing skins correctly let alone any type of mods even simple ones.

Plus all it will do is spit out a "error: texture blah blah not found"

muggi · 2010-03-27, 17:27

Hi,

nice clearart mod.....

But how i can get it in the DialogFullScreenInfo.xml (i think it is this, the screen when i hit the info button while playing) ..... that it shows clear art on th shows and the cover thumbs in the movies section....

can someone post me the modded .xml for this Huh

muggi · 2010-03-28, 15:04

Hi,

It makes the same as the Dialogseekbar but it shows clearart if you it the Info Key.

Muskyinoz · 2010-08-17, 11:26

probably a longshot but would this mod work with Alaska revisited on Dharma? I just upgraded and I miss seeing my cleararts Smile

The_Dogg · 2010-11-05, 16:32

I don't know if it's been done before, but I just modded my Alaska Revisited Mod skin to have this clearart mod. wasn't too hard

open the file DialogSeekbar.xml (in the 720p folder)
paste the following code:

Code:
<control type="largeimage">

                <posx>0</posx>

                <posy>498</posy> 

                <width>275</width>

                <height>145</height>

                <texture>$INFO[Player.FolderPath]../clearart.png</texture>

                <aspectratio>keep</aspectratio>

                <visible>VideoPlayer.Content(episodes)</visible>

            </control>

after line

Code:
<include>OSD_Player_Details</include>

you might have to adjust the path to clearart.png like mentionned in the 1st post (mine is set to clearart.png in the tv show dir.)

I had to put the clearart above the bottom bar, Here is a screen shot of it:

LindoP · 2010-11-06, 06:40

I copied and pasted the xml in the Dialogseekbar. Everything looks like the screenshots with the exception of image. No image showed. I put the png file both inside and outside the folder.

Is there any other mod other than the xml edit? i must be missing a step or this mod does not work with Dharma Beta 4?

The_Dogg · 2010-11-06, 16:00

I did that using dharma beta 4

Here is how my folder structure is:
Tv Show Name
Season 01
Season 02
Clearart.png

LindoP · 2010-11-06, 17:58

Thanks The_Dogg, I have the correct folder structure but it is as if the png is not being recognized by the program. When you pause playing a movie the poster pops up which means that XBMC recognizes the poster that is scrapped in the library. On tv shows it does not even show the tv show poster, just blank where the image (clearart or poster) should be.

The_Dogg · 2010-11-10, 16:40

Ok, I did this first one on a rush and completely forgot to add the movie poster to my file.

I was not able to get added text of the original mod in the skin (didnt try much either as I didn't like it).

So now here is what I have:
TV Shows: display Clearart.jpg on pause
Movies: Display Movie Poster on pause

here is the full content of my DialogSeekBar.xml file

Code:
<window id="115">
