Recently Added infolabels now available in xbmc

hi, sorry if this is a newb question but I got the below info from a different thread -I want this to show the total movie count including movies in sets, if i add to home.xml it shows on main menu, but not in the movie menu. please tell me where to put this as i am completely stumped!!!!

<control type="label">
<posx>1273</posx>
<posy>655</posy>
<width>300</width>
<height>20</height>
<align>right</align>
<aligny>center</aligny>
<font>Font_KeyboardKeys</font>
<shadowcolor>black</shadowcolor>
<label>[COLOR white]Total Movies:[COLOR mainblue] $INFO[Window.Property(Movies.Count)][/COLOR]</label>
</control>

$INFO[Window(Home).Property(Movies.Count)

thanks for replying, but to be honest I am not sure what to do with the info that you gave me! :o

In the movies sub menu as standard it displays a total count of all movies stored. As an example, for my Indiana Jones movieset I have four movies. These are only counted as one movie in the total count on the movies sub menu box.

Please can anyone give me an easy to follow, idiot-proof guide as to what I need to change, and which .xml file I need to change it in?

Please?

(using eden beta 2 on windows 7 if it matters!)

Hi, can you describe a bit better exactly where you want the info and which skin, a screenshot would be brilliant.

I am using Neon, and want to replace the moviecount found at the top left of the screenshot so that it includes the movies contained withing movie sets as well.

Thanks for your quick reply!!

@thechinmaster: this has nothing to do with the topic of this thread so please create your own thread and don't just post in another thread about something totally irrelevant to it's discussion. Furthermore what you are asking for is not easily possible for a skin as it will require an extra script to get that information for you. Please see http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid=124419

thank you for redirecting me to a correct thread, I had actually posted it elsewhere prior but had not got an answer I could understand. then I posted it here as i thought "<label>[COLOR white]Total Movies:[COLOR mainblue] $INFO[Window.Property(Movies.Count)][/COLOR]</label>" was an info label. this would have meant that my post was perfectly relevant.

As i am clearly not as skilled as you are when it comes to all aspects of XBMC programming, I humbly apologize for angering you.

I was looking into the code because I missed the feature were you were able to hide watched episodes. Isn't this possible by using the playcount variable? I noticed it isn't available for movies but at least it's something.

I don't have any knowledge of C++, so I could be completely wrong.

[EDIT] nevermind, this was posted in wrong thread. Sorry

Just run into a bug with LatestEpisode.[1-10].Fanart (although this might cover other/all labels) where the label isn't empty even if there's no fanart available, this in turn results in the fallback not kicking in.

Thanks.
