[Skin] Skin the loading screen (1 Viewer)

[gonenb]

There are some really nice skins out there, I especially like X-factor, but there's one ugly thing in mediaportal,
the initial loading screen. Is there a way to add support so the Skin can change the loading screen graphics?
Instead of showing 'initializing plugins', showing a neat graphic sequence, or even a nice progress bar.

Not possible at in that stake the skinning engine isn't yet loaded. Would require more than minor additions to the code (anyone care to send a patch? )

But as MediaPortal is a HTPC application you shouldn't be seeing that screen in normal use.

Hopefully skinners will be able to do that in MP2?
