    What file(s) are changed for 2.1?
    Submenus (here were some IDs wrong) and backgrounds (conditional visibility was missing for some backgrounds of submenus)
    Just did a quick fix and only little testing. If anything is still wrong please report and I will check later this evening.

    It works now! Would be cool if the submenu backgrounds had three different sizes depending on how many submenu items are active, but hey, Rome wasn't built in one day. :)

    Done ;)


    V2.2
    Added: Two new graphics for submenu background. Will fit now number of items in submenu.
    Fixed: Visibility of LatestMedia for movies and series when submenu is visible
    Fixed: Navigation in submenu won't focus invisible items anymore
    Minor fixes


    Changed Files:
    • 2 new files in Media
    • BasicHome.LatestMovingPictures.xml
    • BasicHome.LatestTVSeries.xml
    • BasicHome.submenus.xml
    Changes does not affect the "configuration part" in the upper part of BasicHome.submenus.xml, so you can copy-paste your own submenus from version 2.1

    How do I get the new submenu background images to work? I get the "three menu tall" ones even if I only input two submenu items. Shouldn't this work even if they are set to "false" or do I have to delete the lines for the third one from the xml?

    It should work right away, there is no need to delete anything. In my tests it works without problems; just enter your submenus as before.
    Code:
    <!--	SUBMENU of LABEL5	-->
    <define property="true">#submenu5.label1.hastext:True</define>
    <define property="true">#submenu5.label1:TEST</define>
    <define>#submenu5.hyperlink1:531646542</define>
    <define>#submenu5.hyperlinkparameter1:</define>
     
    <define property="true">#submenu5.label2.hastext:False</define>
    <define property="true">#submenu5.label2:</define>
    <define>#submenu5.hyperlink2:</define>
    <define>#submenu5.hyperlinkparameter2:</define>
     
    <define property="true">#submenu5.label3.hastext:False</define>
    <define property="true">#submenu5.label3:</define>
    <define>#submenu5.hyperlink3:</define>
    <define>#submenu5.hyperlinkparameter3:</define>
    results in 22-37-42.jpg

    and
    Code:
    <!--	SUBMENU of LABEL2	-->
    <define property="true">#submenu2.label1.hastext:True</define>
    <define property="true">#submenu2.label1:TEST</define>
    <define>#submenu2.hyperlink1:161613213</define>
    <define>#submenu2.hyperlinkparameter1:</define>
     
    <define property="true">#submenu2.label2.hastext:True</define>
    <define property="true">#submenu2.label2:TEST2</define>
    <define>#submenu2.hyperlink2:5341643541</define>
    <define>#submenu2.hyperlinkparameter2:</define>
     
    <define property="true">#submenu2.label3.hastext:False</define>
    <define property="true">#submenu2.label3:</define>
    <define>#submenu2.hyperlink3:</define>
    <define>#submenu2.hyperlinkparameter3:</define>
    in 22-37-31.jpg

    If it doesn't work for you, please upload your submenu.xml and I will have a look. Or maybe you will have to delete the skin cache?

    Works now, must have been some memory/cache thing (I switched to another skin, installed the update, deleted the cache for TITAN, then switched back to TITAN - all this with MediaPortal running :) ).

    Where do you define what item in the BasicHome is the default one? It's TV (item #3), I'd like to change it to item #2 (Series).

    In BasicHome.xml right in the beginning is
    Code:
    <defaultcontrol>1903</defaultcontrol>
    change it to
    Code:
    <defaultcontrol>1902</defaultcontrol>

    So am I correct in assuming that the last digit corresponds to each main item then? If I'd wanted to have FILM as #1, I'd set the defaultcontrol to 1904? Perhaps you should add a comment about this in the Basichome.xml. :)

    Sadly, I can't use this mod for TITAN, as it somehow eats up all of my free Video memory. :( Maybe it's the FanArt defines in two places, I don't know, but with the built-in TITAN themes, MediaPortal works just fine.
