Also, please find time to fix the font issues as mentioned earlier in the posts (sansation rocks):

T:2376 ERROR: Couldn't load font name: font50caps_title(Sansation_Regular-Caps.ttf), trying to substitute arial.ttf

Cheers.

- I delete all color Themes from the Skin.zip download Link and add xyz.xpr to the "media" Joggler Skin Folder

- Sansation_Regular-Caps.ttf -> I check this

PS: Themes are not UpToDate Smile

Here are the specs http://m.bestbuy.com/m/e/product/detail....8476995241

What is planned on next release? I can tell so much planning and thought has gone into this. Also buttons are very well placed and views are great. Overall a great experience and even my 6 yr old can go thru menus.

One question though... how can i remove some of the menu items on metro view? Like appearance, configure video, configure system, etc... i am going to make a profile for my kids and want it simple and only a couple of selections like tvshows, movies, music and addons...thats it. How do u add profiles btw... cant find it in settings.

Thanks

Can you not make toggle settings for on/off for these sections also for this metro home view?

So what is the question? Which section? Please explain more precisely.

rflores2323 · 2012-03-26 20:07

ok on the metro homescreen. Is there a way to hide the sections that a user does not want or customize it. For instance you have two colums and three rows currently on the skin. If I only wanted to have one colums with two rows that only had the section. Movies, TV Shows, Music, Show Weather, Favorites.

Do you get what I am asking for now?

Also love the teasers pics and the kid section with fanart/icons as great! cant wait as that would be great for my little girls.

anyway you can integrate the grooveshark script into the skin. I cant use it since there really is not any buttons or menus due to it being remote control only for menus etc.. like to play the song I click on it and a menu comes up on the right but goes right away so I cant click on Play. Also no volume controls or osd to control the script to go back to main menu or show fanart etc... Its a really nice script for grooveshark.

Grooveshark Script

- Boahhh, so I did not plan. I need more time with me, then once a closer look. and try out. Then you want the bottom line or off the top line? Or you delete the code blocks out yourself ... and see what happens.
<control type="panel" id="8900"> Blue
<control type="panel" id="9500"> Green
<control type="panel" id="9100"> Purple
<control type="panel" id="9200"> Orange
<control type="panel" id="9300"> Weather
<control type="panel" id="9400"> Red
<control type="panel" id="9600"> Settings

- I wanted to, but even got started no matter what I edited the xml. 's resulted in no change in xbmc/grooveshark.script. Now that grooveshark in Germany is no longer I can do with today's new skining unfortunately no attempt to start the script for touch rebuild. Perhaps there is indeed a different xbmc avid user in the forum.
