    Ow, I'm sory.. I have allready add it on my roadmap as you can see in this post https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/threads/avallonis-an-avalon-mod.102366/page-72#post-894476
    But that one doesn't have priority for me, so if you can make one by yourself, it would be great!


    I'm working on my own skin file for MediaSlayer and want it to be similar to the LastFM layout......

    Capture.PNG

    ......I'm using the LastFM skin file as a template and so far have changed the button layout to suit the MediaSlayer plugin......

    Capture2.PNG

    ......but when viewed in MP I don't have the "hidden menu" visible although I have only changed the button layout on the Group eelement and deleted entries in the LastFM skin file not applicable to MediaSlayer......

    Capture1.PNG

    ......what have I missed?

    Also, in community members opinion, what would look better....text box for the movie / music info on the left or the right? When I get it sorted I will upload for others to use if they want it.

    If I can get my head around this one then I am going to have a go at a skin file for the HTPCInfo plugin.

    MediaSlayer.xml attached.

    Any help appreciated.

    After playing around with xml files for the last couple of days I'm finally getting the hang of it! :)

    I've created an xml for Media Slayer and pretty pleased with it so far......

    ......maybe you would like to include this in your next update?

    Regards.

    ......but now I can't get HTPC Info and Sleep Control to work :(
    HTPC Info is unreadably and I can't downgrade from 1.5.2 to 1.4.2 as suggested before in this thread, as it does not work with MP 1.3
    And for SleepControl there is no xml sadly.
    Does someone perhaps have those files? I can't do them myself, as I have absolutely no idea in skinning etc.
    Thanks in advance!
    ......I'm looking for skinfiles for HTPCInfo and Power Control! Could you please help?
    Best regards

    Skin files for HTPC Info ver 1.5.4......

    Capture.PNG.....Capture1.PNG.....Capture2.PNG.....Capture3.PNG.....Capture4.PNG.....Capture5.PNG.....

    .....they don't yet include support for the "Progressbar.xml" extra info on the "Summary" page but this is next on my to-do list along with some "custom" gauges.

    Regards.

    Good start - three things I would change:

    - Background for the Detailwindow - should be not that "present" - maybe you can create a Pic which has less colouring so the text is better to read - personally I would use a pic of a mainboard - as the info's are Mainboardinfos ;)
    - Textcolour - hard to read
    - some of teh fields tend to overlap with the right pane (as also seen in your screenshot)

    for whatever reason the gauge in your last screenshot is on my screen streched to placed in the middle without text

    Attached the Pic I'm using - so the Text is also readanble

    This is probably not the place to ask, but will these HTPCInfo files work for Avalon 1.2.0 Beta for MediaPortal 1.3.0A?

    I have the problem where all the info is overlapped on one screen.
