Theme: BasicHome goes Classic with Backdrops | NEW: Editor available (4 Viewers)

Ehm...one question (sorry to decrease the level of the thread... ): After having extracted the .zip file, what Am I supposed to do? Just copy all the files in the Titan skin folder overwriting the existing ones?

Thanks a lot for your help!

Put the contents in Skin\TITAN\Themes\Basichome Goes Classic (or whatever name you like to use).

Would it be possible to release a specific version of this theme for Titanius using the bigger Now Playing overlay on Basic Home + the extended shutdown menu, please?

Edit: Getting the extended exit menu was easy, I just deleted the BasicHome.exitmenu.skinupdate.xml and BasicHome.exitmenu.xml from the theme's folder.

Edit2: Getting the bigger Now Playing window wasn't too hard either. I just changed the include line at the end of BasicHome.xml from

<include>common.overlay.xml</include>

to

<include>common.overlay.basichome.xml</include>

Getting the extended exit menu was easy, I just deleted the BasicHome.exitmenu.skinupdate.xml and BasicHome.exitmenu.xml from the theme's folder.

Then you'll probably have navigation issues when you try to leave the exit menu. Can be resolved by copying the two exitmenu xml to themes folder and change all <onup> and <ondown> to

<onup>1903</onup>
<ondown>1903</ondown>

Should be no problem at all

I did have an issue, yes. I was a bit too quick. Is there a way of navigating up to the Now Playing window's Fullscreen and Play/Pause controls too?

Edit: There are three exitmenu xmls, which ones do I need to edit?

Edit2: Attached the edited xml files for anyone wanting to use them.

Hi, I had a look a on it and I'm sorry to say that this is rather complicated (for my limited skills). It's no big problem to keep the menu and backgrounds visible while the focus is on Now Playings controls, but I can't manage the navigation from the main menu or submenu to the controls.
Right now I use this for <onup> from the main menu:

<define evaluateNow="true">#menu0.onup:#(iif(#submenu0.label1.hastext, 10001, 1900))</define>

And now this would need to be something like this:

<define evaluateNow="true">#menu0.onup:#(iif(#submenu0.label1.hastext, 10001, #(iif(#control.IsVisible(222), 222, 1900))))</define>

because the skin engine has to decide what to do when user navigates up: show submenu if available, focus on Now Playing controls if available or do nothing at all. But my quick try with a nested "iif" won't work and I have no idea how to do this an easy way...

Hi,

I have an issue with the Series overview on the homescreen. My recently added series are not displayed on the right side. I see 3 empty places and onlye "SE" as label. For moving pictures, recently added movies are shon correctly with covers and names.

The next issue is that when I enter the series/movies overview, where the backgrounds for the selected movie/series is shown, the pictures show the original titan background, so it seems that the series/movie pictures is transparent.

Does anyone know a solution for this?
