    Is there a way to tweak the volume indicator? It's so small in the top. Can it be a bit bigger and at the bottom?

    I'm using avallonis.

    Just to add to this, one of the things I'd like to see with the volume indicator, is when it is at maximum volume, and you press the volume up button (just to check that it is at max), nothing shows up.

    to change the MP volume OSD would require manually editing the xml files and creating new png images for the osd.

    there are 3rd party volume OSDs if you can disable the inbuilt MP volume OSD then you can use a standalone volume osd. or you can use both.

    yes, this could be, but i'm looking for a way not to implement 1000 3th party tools, i'd like to see this stuff in the skin if its possible. I understand it has something to do with .png pictures, i'll try to look into this.

    find the volume osd images and change them to desired ones.
    then look through all the xml files and find the references to the volume osd image, and adjust the x,y position and width/height tags as needed. To find which xml to edit you either educated guess, or just search all xml files for the png image filename string.

Also when I wake up the HTPC MP closes or crashes (not sure which) as per the example in...
