Hi!

Im new here, and have installed Mediaportal and been using it for a few weeks now. And now im trying to write my own plugin.

The plugin shows up in the main menu, so it must be okei. And I have created a skin from the "Guide". And now i try to load the skin, but it spit out a errormessage: File invalid or missing.

Im using VB.NET instead of C#, it shouldn't be any problems there.

Im trying to call my skin with: [CODE] Public Overloads Function Init() As Boolean
Return Load(GUIGraphicsContext.Skin + "\SearchPlugin.xml")
End Function[/CODE]

But all i get is the error of invalid file or missing file.

The skin file: [CODE]<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" standalone="yes"?>
<window>
 <id>300000</id>
 <defaultcontrol>2</defaultcontrol>
 <allowoverlay>yes</allowoverlay>
