i'm not satisfied with my mod. and most of it is the way the tvshow part. since i still don't understand the coding concept in depth i just hack away and try to get it acceptable to my selfish needs Smile. so my question is this; i'm thinking about splitting up tvshow and movie part to different files. basicly use poster for movies and fanart for tvshow. since both looks gonna use the same myvideonav options, can i give both skins the same id (55) or will that cause problems?

Cause problems...

It's real easy to spilt a view.
Ctrl+f the phrase "Control.IsVisible(55)" and do a 'replace all' with "Control.IsVisible(9999 or whatever)"

Then change the
<control type="fixedlist" id="55">
to
<control type="fixedlist" id="9999 or whatever">

Then change the name - <viewtype label="$LOCALIZE[31052]">list</viewtype>


And then I assume you know how to add a new Viewtype.xml?

yea that can be done, but part of my goal is to not edit too many files for making it easier to keep up with your updates.

question, while playing a movie and pressing I on the keyboard to bring up info, where is the image file that changes the poster there, it is too big for some mods i made and covering up the text no matter how small i make it(the text that is). and also i have tried changing the watched overlay, and not only will it not change, but disabling it in the menu doesn't work. thanks.

take a look at ~/.xbmc/addons/skin.night/720p/DialogFullScreenInfo.xml
on second thought maybe its in http://github.com/bartowski/skin.night/b...eoInfo.xml
not sure what needs changing in there but thats where I would look

love this skin..

just a quick question regarding the addition of the "HD Movies" entry on the home page, after it scans my library for the fist time - Great feature, but is it possible to add another one ie: kids movies.

I assuming it just reading the flags for HD and adds them into one category. I think in order for me to get the kids movies entry I will have to add a custom genre (kids movies) to make this work? Correct?

Yes making a custom genre "Kids" would give you total control over whats in and whats not.

Maybe just adding the genre "Animation" or creating a playlist of only pixar and disney movies would be close enough.

But you can add whatever you want to Home via Settings->Skin->Custom Home items

thanks - One more thing.. not sure if this is skin related - but do you know if there is a "update library" action, where I can make a button on my remote called Update Library? So it can update ALL library's at the touch of a button

I remember someone saying its possible, but the skin has to have this function
