Well, i´m sure that like i, find the Night skin one of the top skins for XBMC.

As my default skin, i like to add somethings, but no idea How to do it.

First, i know that we have Movies & HD Movies, but HD Movies, show me what i ready have in to Movies. I mean, i have dvd and bluray, in the movies section show me both, and in the HD section show me bluray. I can have in the Movies section only SD content(dvd) and in the HD(bluray)? that would be better. Or just deactivate HD section, but, in the movies section, can i have the possibility to show the DVD/Bluray icon?

Second, Movie info. Some movies have just one thumbnails, and when i call Info-Movie(pressing "i") the description go over the thumbnail, and that´s not good. There is a way to fix that?

Third, Now playing. It´s a litle to small in my screen, how can i make it a litle bigger? and How can i show the next 5 songs?

Hope somebody can help..

Thanks

1. I believe you were asking can a user have a Library of HD content and a Library of SD content, but not have them mixed together. Yes create a playlist of movies below 700, add that to home, then disable the regular Movie item on Home. You can disable any home item in Settings->Skin->Home Window options

2. I can't image people going the extra mile and using extarthumbs yet only having one? Have time today to fix 'Info' overlap and cast issues.

3. Can't change size now, Videoplayer(1).Label

1.-I know that i can disable <Movies-HD Movies> just, when i activate HD Movies, i was thinking, maybe now i see my Movies(SD) and HDMovies(bluray), and yep, HDMovies just showme the bluray files, and the normal Movies show me both.. and well that make none sense... Maybe there´s a way to make in the Movies something like, if the file its a dvd movie show a dvd icon, if it a Bluray a bluray icon.

2.-Well EMM sometimes show me one fanart, and i pick up.

in ember you tell it how many extrathumbs your want it to get, you also tell it if you want it to take a snap shot from your source file.

not sure why your thumbs are hidden behind your text though thats strange.

I have it coded to automatically adjust if 2 extrathumbs empty, again I never thought people would have just one...

I can't see any "Cast" when viewing episode/movie info. Is this configurable somewhere?

Otherwise excellent skin.
