[QUOTE="Dadeo, post: 998414, member: 27204"] Yes, you are correct, there is a order of 'layers'. Afaik [B]only[/B] controls added to videoOverlayTop.xml will display on top of the videowindow control. And that only applies when allowoverlay is set (not if you use a custom mediaoverlay which IIRC Titan does sometimes). Remember all that stuff in videoOverlay and Top is hardcoded, so you cannot see the effects of any changes by exiting/reloading the window (or even using Refresh Plugin) so you have to actually reload MP to test each change. :( EDIT: P.S. the background video Mr Viggo mentioned is often a button on the topbar or on some home screens in some skins. It just uses the ACTION_BACKGROUND_TOGGLE = 101 which you can program to a remote button, or use <action>101</action> on a button control in skin. IIRC you can't actually skin it though, it is always full screen, but I may be wrong. Also it isn't perfect, some controls, like muliimages, cormerstone fanart in TVS, MovPics etc will overlay it due to the built in fade animations. [/QUOTE]
