Moving Pictures Skin...
Allright i changed a little here and there... And ended up with the result i like...
It's an compound between HulleBulle's Skin and the Original StreamedMP skin... :D

- Info Box in the right lower corner, with moviedescription... Looks best if you use the IMDB smal plot download. But else there is scroll on...
- Genre is current set to scrool vertical... Because i couldnt find a command for scrolling it horizontal? :/ (Usefull if you have a movie tagged with ex. 5 genres)
- Lesser fading of covers than the original one...

Have not played with the details view screen, only the front front page view...

Awesome skin, thank you. I have one question i want instead of the writer, i want the actors on the movie detail page. How can i do this?

    anyone know why I would lose all images and text in this theme ?
    basically when I load MP with StreamedMP theme it starts to the main menu but all black apart from the side menu and no images or text showing.

    If I change to another theme all is ok

    It is weird it has been running fine for a few months now and I have not changed anything and it has just gone all funny.

    With streamed mp you cant use a mouse. I imagine thats your issue as what you describe is exactly like what happens when you use mouse on basic-home screen

    Guess I could upload the mod I made for myself for the ultimate homescreen :p

    Basically its a merge of pilehaves homescreen and mattsk's basichome. I encourage you to grab pilehaves mediastream.dll as well for this to behave like it should.

    This does not replace basichome, but your standard home. So remember to untick "start with basichome screen" in mp config.


    Thx goes out to both team StreamedMP and pilehave for amazing work =)

    ! Please let me know if somethings not working, I think it should work for a standard setup, but I'm not 100% certain. !
    ! And please backup your fonts.xml and myhome.xml before applying this "patch" !

    Can you tell me why pilehaves mediastream.dll is needed? Also pilehave states that the skin directory name must include the string "mediastream" otherwise the plugin doesn't start. I tried copy the 2 files into my StreamedMP skin dir, and it doesn't work properly. When i load myhome.xml the screen is black, no amount of arrow keys can bring up the menu, but if i move the mouse the menu becomes visible and then i can scroll up + down. If i use mediastream.dll to create a new menu then the mapping is incorrect, and it doesn't seem to create a new myhome.xml

    As I like myhome.xml better than bascihome.xml (no need to sort the plugins again, labels are shown, it returns to the plugin last used in menu, no crashes anymore, ...) here's my attempt to align the menu in myhome.xml to the left.

    Thanks, how do i set it up so that the currently selected menu item stays in the middle. Currently with your mod there are 3 possible positions in the vertical list before scrolling occurs. ie. I have to press up/down off the edge of the screen for it to scroll.

    I modified the music part a bit.

    Do you have a matching mod for mymusicgenres.xml and also can you change mymusicplayingnow.xml to be consistent with the other screenshots?
