[QUOTE="kiwijunglist, post: 527281, member: 76888"] [B]Last thing... Currently i only have the default skins installed. If i download a new skin do i have to reinstall the plugins so they work with the new skins? i noticed when installing certain plugins it asks me to tick support for certain skins.[/B]? If you download a new skin you do not have to reinstall the plugins. Each plugin requires a skin file. Most skins come with all the skin files for the most popular plugins. Some plugins also install skin files for some skins. So sometimes you can choose between the skin's skin file or the plugins skin file. You should use the most recent. If that confuses you, then go with the skin's skin file. ie. Choose not to install the plugins skin file when you install the plugin. If you have problems you can reinstall the plugin and install the plugin's skin file overwriting the skin's skin file. [B]My question is this. It has 4 buttons across the top that when pressed switch to the various apps i.e. videos / pictures. what i want to do is change the video and tv buttons to open TV series plugin and moving pictures but when i open the mapping config under the MCE options neither are available in the large list of options you can map... is there a simple way around this?[/B] 2 steps involved in setting this up. Step 1 - you must assign a keyboard shortcut to my TV Series/Moving Pictures plugins. You can do that using Shortcut'er plugin. The link to shortcut'er is in my signiture. Once you have setup a keyboard shortcut, try it and see if it works. eg. CTRL+SHIFT+M jumps to moving pictures. If it is working you can proceed to step 2.
