Listview mode in Moving Pictures (1 Viewer)

[JuanC2]

Well I'm trying to get a longer list of movies in the fanart listview window of Moving Pictures (only 6 visible movies in the list are very few to my collection of movies). But I can't find which of the skin files of Moving Pictures has the corresponding control(s) of this list.

Can somebody tell me which skin file sould I modify? And which control(s)?

Thanks in advance

It's in movingpictures.fanart.facade.xml or movingpictures.default.facade.xml. Depends on your view.

Check for:

<control>
      <type>facadeview</type>
      <id>50</id>
      <animation effect="fade" time="250" delay="0">WindowClose</animation>
      <control>
        <visible>control.isvisible(50)</visible>
        <description>Movie List</description>
        <type>listcontrol</type>
        <id>50</id>
        <onleft>3</onleft>
        <onright>3</onright>
        <width>490</width>
        <posX>786</posX>
        <posY>317</posY>
        <height>390</height>
        <textXOff>0</textXOff>
                <textXOff2>480</textXOff2>
        <!-- List Control Popup -->
        <explicitlyEnableScrollLabel>yes</explicitlyEnableScrollLabel>
        <!-- Spin Controls -->
        <spinWidth>50</spinWidth>
        <spinHeight>37</spinHeight>
        <spinPosX>1175</spinPosX>
        <spinPosY>681</spinPosY>
        <spinAlign>Right</spinAlign>
        <spinColor>ff006698</spinColor>
        <textureUp>arrow_round_up_nofocus.png</textureUp>
        <textureDown>arrow_round_down_nofocus.png</textureDown>
        <textureUpFocus>arrow_round_up_focus.png</textureUpFocus>
        <textureDownFocus>arrow_round_down_focus.png</textureDownFocus>
      </control>

and play with the <height> and <posY> value.

OK it really seems to be this one. I'll try with it.

Thank you very much

 

[JuanC2]

Well I'm trying but I believe I'm doing something wrong.

First tryed reducing the <posY> value from 420 to 120 to get the list up, and icreasing the <height> from 300 to 600 to make it longer. Firts time MediaPortal sowed a message "error when loading the skin file" when trying to see the change. Going back and returning to the movies list it appeared as before modifying movingpictures.fanart.facade.xml, as if it took the values from a backup file.

Now I can modify movingpictures.fanart.facade.xml as I want, and MediaPortal ignores it: always has the old appearence.

How can I change it?

 

[Holzi]

Could you attach your movingpictures.fanart.facade.xml?

 

[JuanC2]

That's how I have it now.

At the end I modified all the controls with Id 50 or 51 to see if there was some change in Mediaportal (put in bold, with the original values marked as comment) with same result.MediaPortal shows as if I changed nothing.

Thanks again for the help

Sorry I forgot upload the file itself If you want to try it.

Here is the first version (modifyed Ypos to 120 and height to 600 only the control you told me). With this I had the issue the first time.

Redards

Keep on trying to change the size of the movies list in the MovingPictures listview, but I fail doing it via modifying the movingpictures.fanart.facade.xml.

MediaPortal seems to skip this file, because even after removing it from the \skin\StreamedMP\ folder MediaPortal starts the same, showing the list of movies with the usual view. The same happens with movingpictures.default.facade.xml file.

So I supose that MediaPortal loads this view settings from somewhere else. Maybe a backup file? Or maybe the list of movies appears in another skin file?

Can anybody give me an idea?

Regards

Are you sure you using StreamedMP Fanart View? (maybe a screenshot can help here)
Else there is a movingpictures.default.facade.xml.

 

[Holzi]

I can provide you my position changes:

 <control>
      <description>composite control consisting of a list control and a thumbnail panel</description>
      <type>facadeview</type>
      <id>50</id>
      <control>
        <description>Movie List</description>
        <type>listcontrol</type>
        <id>50</id>
        <posY>65</posY>
        <posX>890</posX>
        <height>680</height>
        <width>390</width>
.
.
.
</control>

I believe I'm using it. Here's the screenshot:

Anyway I've also modifyed the movingpictures.default.facade.xml withe the same result, but I'm really not sure how to change from fanart to default view.

Thank you for your help
