Another potential idea, you will notice the screeen only displays the currently active lrc lyric lines, similar to karaoke. I'm posting here as well because maybe a community member who can code might take up this idea for a mod.

Please post any discussion in the below thread, so as not to clutter this thread with a mod that has not been created yet, thanks.

Use tvminiguide.xml as an entry point for the tv screen?

I used the basic home editor to have tvminiguide.xml as an entry point for watching tv, instead of the main tv screen. This is because it's easier to just choose a channel and start watching tv (much less clicks). So when i click watch tv i get the screenshot below. When I click on a channel the tv starts streaming and i get audio but no video. If I go back to the main menu i can see the TV in the preview window, then click enter on the preview window, however... Is there a simple modification to this file that i can make to let me use this as an entry point for watching tv, so that when I click on a channel it starts fullscreen tv on that particular channel?

Thanks
Kiwi

EDIT: If I link to mytvguide.xml it works fine, just not tvminiguide.xml

I also tried to do this, with no luck. I don't remember if I had same or similar problem...

I'd love to have this option available.

Thanks.

if you remove the comments <!-- , --> around the video control, and then change visibility to has video and make the window full screen size, then it kinda works, but after the tv goes fullscreen you can't use any of the regular tv controls to change channels etc..

Mod for basic home screen

This will allow you too see more of the fanart in the basic home screen by changing the menu blade. I found the current blade image obscured too much of the fanart, which is why I did this mod.

Close mediaportal
Browse to \skin\streamedmp\media folder
Rename the original file basichome.menu.overlay.png -> basichome.menu.overlay (old).png
Download one of the images below (right click, save as)
Place the new file in the same folder, save the new file as basichome.menu.overlay.png
Then run the streamedmp basic home editor and click "clear skin cache" button, now restart mediaportal

Original for comparison

Version 1

Version 2 - My preferred version

Version 2b

Version 3

Version 4

layout suggestion(s)

Based on the above screenshot first two are achievable, not sure if 3rd one is acheivable because i am not sure if you can put text/image ontop of the vizualization.

You are right the 3rd one is not acheivable but the other two can be done while keeping existing functionality, have rough working versions here but requires an update to the config plugin...

time allowing may make it into the next release...

cheers

Ok, will it be in the next release ? Would be great, because my tries are horrible

Sorry, this one took a back seat as had some issues and we were preparing for the last release, will start on it again - if I can do it to my satifaction it will be released as a patch.

thx

Hi @all...

...i want to see the "last 3 added" Movies of MovingPictures under the Weather Overlay in TV (!) Menu, not only in MovingPictures. How to do that?
