Hi Dachkennel, nice work! Would be better if you attach the rar directly here in the thread (edit your post and choose "Erweitert". There you find "Anhänge verwalten" to attach your file). I don´t like to be taken to websites with obscure content (got WOT warning about bad site), and it´s easier for you and all thread readers to DL your patch direct from here

Hi,

thanks for your positive resonance! So I edited my post and now the file is directly attached to the thread. (Didn't know things could be so easy )

Hi Dachkennel,

Looks intresting - to make this compatible with MP1.2a onwards you should replace all occurances of VisibleChange to Visible. This will not effect it running on MP1.1.1.

Cheers

Thanks trevor for this usefull tip . I changed it. Now it should run under MP1.2a

Hi Dachkennel, good work.

Don't know if someone else have same issue with the position of recently watched movies on Basic Home screen.

If it's a common problem, did some tweaking with the position of the posters as in the attached xml and displayed in attached images.

Dam - forgot about sorting that for the graphical menu.

Thanks for pointing it out the updated xml - will port into the editor

Thanks
