Yes, replace the MesFilms.xml with an older version if you want. Just make sure to include any gfx files referenced in the xml.


Thanks for your reply. Just a quick follow up question. Is there anywhere I can download the older versions of the skin? I don't have them anymore.

OK peeps, let me look into it, I haven't tried that for a while - I was ironing out some other indiscrepencies I found. Hang tight.

Edit1
Right, I've just tried it again an everything looks as it should (note date and time of screenie ;)).
Here's what I did:

1) Rename MediaPortal\plugins\Windows\WindowPlugins.dll -> WindowPlugins.dll.old
2) Rename MediaPortal\Configuration.exe -> Configuration.exe.old
3) Rename MediaPortal\Core.dll -> Core.dll.old
4) Copy the three files to thier right locations.
5) Rename MediaPortal\skin\Monochrome\myvideo.xml.old -> myvideo.xml.old
6) Rename MediaPortal\skin\Monochrome\myvideo for IMDB view.xml -> myvideo.xml
7) Run config; check "Use IMDB Data in Share view"
8) Start MP -> Screenshot

I have my file in this folder structure:

Movies\Filename.avi
Kids Movies\Filename.avi

IMDB data is only displayed when a file (movie) is highlighted.

I'm running MediaPortal-svn--01-24-2008--05-04-Rev17150.

That's about all I can do for you guys...

Edit2
I've attached the very same files I'm using.

Hello, Psycho Reptile

I just did like you said but no luck to get view like yours:



This one I got:



I`ve installed:
MediaPortal_0.2.3.0_Setup.exe
MediaPortal-svn--03-11-2008--05-05-Rev17890.exe
Fix+Features_SVN-17873.zip
Monochrome 1.6.708.rar
and made all needed changes that you wrote.

Btw, look at the screenshot, there is no space between Runtime: and minutes, the same with Watched and Year.

Sorry for my poor English.

Thank you for the great skin!

    Hey, does anyone know how I can get the movie info (like this https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/attachments/monochrome-249/17679d1204037445-indigo-untitled-8.jpg ) displayed for the My Films plugin?
    At the moment that is not possible because of the way the plugin works. I think that zebons is working on implementing that, somebody has already asked him. When he does I'll update the xml ;)

    I just did like you said but no luck to get view like yours:
    Let me look into it, I didn't know that was the screen you were after in MyVideos Shares, that was an idea that I changed. I make up a zip of the files needed to revert to the old view...
    Btw, look at the screenshot, there is no space between Runtime: and minutes, the same with Watched and Year.
    At that resolution I'm not surprised ;).
