i've modded the videofullscreen.xml. (grabbed code from PDM-skin and VISION)
if you press pause or info on your remote you'll get these infos, cover, and dvd-background.
if you like it, i will upload the file.
here is a screenshot:

Nice, I was wondering why this has not been on this skin yet. Might just have to use this.

Here's my suggestion for when a dvd is inserted, the quick mockup image is self-explaining:

[spaz7986]

I don't know if anybody uses this skin with a modified keymap but I do and this is my problem. I have several custom buttons mapped in the home section. The problem is that one of these is the back button (which would normally be ok) but the "skin settings" menu must be acting as the home window because when i edit settings in it i have to restart xbmc to get out of it because under the home section i have the back button mapped to a timer (perfect for makin pizzas when watching a movie/tv show)

simply a mistake on my part... (as usual)

Here's my suggestion for when a dvd is inserted, the quick mockup image is self-explaining:

that would be so cool! this would be cool also: have the action that normally opens the shutdown menu open the dialog beneath the slider (as shown above), following this pressing the a button would open the game and pressing the b button would go back to the main menu (or you could have a yes or no dialog to launch the game; take your pick)... as a result you would have to actually hit the right thumbstick click to open the shutdown menu if there is a dvd/game in your tray

[profhalo]

I'm thinking about doing a compiled release a whole XBMC based on what i've got right now. It WON'T be available in the usual places, however.

on a side note, and i know someone will probably kill me for this one, but what is the likelyhood of support for 2 different thumbnails depending on view?

Although i like the Wide Icon format, i'm not too thrilled with a lot of the wide icons for games.....i do have a small pack of icons that use the case/box art instead, and i REALLY like using them so far....what i was wondering is, if a particular game has only one or the other, naming it Default.tbn would be fine...the only icon would show up, regardless of view...

but, say i wanted to view games in Big Icon mode or in List 2 mode, or even in DVD move, in hopes of seeing the box art. Then, later on, someone else in the family logged in, and they prefer to view in Wide Icon mode....if both types of icons are available for 1 game/app/program/move, would it be possible to have either the skin itself, or perhaps XBMC, tell the difference between the 2 by name?

for example

<-- This could be named DefaultW.tbn

<-- This could be named Default.tbn

depending on view chosen, the proper icon would show. if only 1 icon exists, that icon would be shown no matter which view.

this is probably an XBMC thing, but i was curious if this could be implimented on a skin level

I would really love to find out how to do this too, seeing as I have both tall and wide icons for hundreds of tv shows and games along with various other menus. I have tried switching between views, but renaming hundreds of files just to change views doesnt seem worth it.

If anyone has any ideas on how to go about doing this, I wouldnt mind spending some time working on it if someone could just point me in the right direction for what I need to edit, be it skin files, xbmc files, whatever.

Any chance into looking at the Anna Theme issues I posted about earlier? Just wondering.

I would have to agree... I never understood WHY the wide icons would use the same filename, because you would obviously want to have a different set of icons depending on what view you are in (Icon, DVD for the box cover, or Wide). On a side note (nothing to do with skins), there should really be a setting to define where you want to store your thumbnails (icons); pretty sure this was already requested on Sourceforge for XBMC.

Hmmm... values go above 1.0... Are they Gamma values, then?

[hXr.eXe]

sorry im a bit late...........but this is one hell of a skin!!!! keep up the good work.
one suggestion: remove fade altogether on them wide icons, i cant see the other end of it and also the home screen looks a bit well blank perhaps make the chrome circle centralised to screen and not at bottom and perhaps make it larger, sorry not good wiv graphic ideas
in all its just my opinions its your decision, but congrats on the skin, 1st skin to make me migrate from the media center edition skin to this, lol sorry hades666.....

I just join the group and would like to say hi to everyone.

I just downloaded XBMC pimped edition 04-08-07 and it comes with Vision skin. The skin looks fantastic.

Does anyone know how to display a DVD title menu when playing a DVD? With Project Mayhem skin, I can press the START button while playing the dvd to bring up the soft DVD remote screen and select DVD button to display the DVD menu.

Thanks,

bandgap

[bandgap112]
