Customized Background for new plugin? (1 Viewer)

[yhoogi]

With the Anime Plugin the standard black background gives some troubles (all too dark) so I tried to change this manually:

I tried to modify the corresponding xml-files of the plugin pointing to a different background.

from <texture>background.png</texture>
to: <texture>anime_background.png</texture>

Unfortunately this seems not to work as I get still the default black background.

Did I miss something, - maybe there is even a better way?


Thanks in advance,


yhoogi

did you put your anime_background.png in the media folder? (skins\streamedmp\media)

 

[yhoogi]

I observed this effect with a renamed Blue3Wide background.png which I copied in the ..skins\streamedmp\media folder.


I just tried to point to 1 of the SteamedMP backgrouds which is working on the other hand.


Cheers

I know I'll need to make a picutre in png format and put it in the media folder, right? but how do I tell it to use which picture for which plug in (e.g. My TV series, My Movies, Play Bluray, etc.)???

Without knowing details in how to do it:

Ever tried to check the related Menu xml's?
THere are normally the references to the backgrounds

 

[landshark]

did check out the xml file related to each of the plug in. however, some has more stuffs in it (e.g. My TV, My Video) while some only has a few lines (e.g. acrsoft player, Moving Picture, etc.). I just don't know what do I do or what should I add/edit in each of those xml file......
