mce 1280x720 (updated for MP 0.2.3 RC3) (4 Viewers)

[Boilermaker]

thanks for the detailed description....i have some time tonight i'll take a look into it. I have every conceivable plugin enabled on my testbed for skinning, so i wasn't going to catch that on my own.

EDIT:;
Found the problem, this will be added to the next release, but in the mean time here is how to fix it.. this code needs to be added to myvideo.xml near the end of the file (make sure you save a copy of the file before editing in case you make any huge errors).
<control>
<type>button</type>
<id>7</id>
<hyperlink>5900</hyperlink>
<label>5906</label>
<onleft>6</onleft>
<onright>50</onright>
<onup>6</onup>
<ondown>2</ondown>
</control>

Add the code after this control:
<control>
<description>Play DVD</description>
<type>button</type>
<id>6</id>
<label>341</label>
<onleft>6</onleft>
<onright>50</onright>
<onup>20</onup>
<ondown>2</ondown>
</control>

And before this set of code:
</control>
<import>common.facade.default.xml</import>
</controls>
</window>

Downloaded this skin and it looks awsom
Added the code in Myvideo and all videos are now listed.
Only two things:
In MyTV - Teletext, I cannot navigate.
And I cannot hit exit button with MCE remote.

Really nice work Boilermaker

In MyTV - Teletext, I cannot navigate.
And I cannot hit exit button with MCE remote.

hopefully i can still get to the teletext screen, with some versions of mp i have the button in mytv, in some i don't. I may have to take a stab in the dark at the problem, post the xml file and have you try it out.

 

[petteram]

I`ll try it, no problem.

 

[Boilermaker]

ok, give this a try...
ftp://www.knwd.net/pub/mediaportal/skin/updates/myteletext.xml

server is a bit slow. I know i made a change or two, one of which should help the navigation problem, if not solve it. I may have also created more errors, i try not to skin blind, but i didn't have much of a choice. Let me know how it works.

 

[petteram]

Almost there dude...
Can navigate up and down with subpages kicking in.
But hitting fullscreen button makes tv to come fullscreen and not teletext.

But hitting fullscreen button makes tv to come fullscreen and not teletext.

That's an action i don't think the skinner has any control over. You can check this by using one of the default skins and seeing if it does the same thing.

Thank you for posting the screenshot, i've corrected (i think) the hidden button and the double mini tv displays. New file uploaded, let me know how it works.

Since I`ve used this function in standard Bluetwo for some time
I checked and found it only works in B2 and not in MCE standard.

Well, almost fullscreen anyway.

So I copied the Myteletext from B2 standard in here for you to see if there is any difference.
(tried to look myself but my brain collapsed)

Also checked wether I could reach the exit buttons in both B2 and MCE standard
with remote and this seemed fine.
In MCE 1280x720 I can only hit exit button with mouse, not remote or keyboard.
In Bluetwo 1280x720 this works fine.....

My guess is that the problem actually lies in the topbar.xml. The exit button you are trying to get to is in the topbar, right? I'll have to go back and check my id tags in that to make sure they are consistent. Not too many people use the topbar in mce, so if this is the problem, its why it hasn't been caught before.

I looked over the file you linked, and all the tags other than ones that have to do with position and size are basically the same. This is a whole 'nother problem. Anything that works in one default skin and not another means that i'm going to have to compare them file by file. Last time i had a problem like this, i needed to include a file that was never directly displayed, but needed to be there. (actually it was the solution to the problem from your first post, why the music visualization would hang up my music, the solution was a missing file).

Basically i'm going to have to get in front of my htpc and hope that i can get into the teletxt section while running mp for some good old fashion trial and error. I'll try searching the boards first, but i'm not optomistic. For right now, i hope what is there will do for a bit.

 

[petteram]

This is just a small issue for me anyway since everything else works.
I really wish I could help with the codes, but I guess this isnt learned in a couple of days :-(
Thanks for your help so far.
