TITANIUS 1.7.0.0 (18-07-2015) Now with a fresh new look! (1 Viewer)

[wizard123]

The setting does not exist at least in the standard titan control which is why your search would fail so it needs to be added. The xml file will be mytvguide.11rows.xml or mytvguide.7rows.xml depending on which one you use although you can add it in both if you like.

Thank you.

In fact it is just the command

<scrollStartDelaySec>2</scrollStartDelaySec>

that was missing. I've added this to the mytvguide.7rows.xml and now the system behaves as it should.

Alright, slightly quick and dirty I have also increased the size of the scroll text box from its original 110 to 152, which will allow the display four lines of content text. The complete section now looks like this:

<control>
<description>Description1</description>
<type>textboxscrollup</type>
<id>15</id>
<posX>850</posX>
<posY>252</posY>
<width>925</width>
<height>152</height>
<font>TitanLight12</font>
<label>#TV.Guide.Description</label>
<textcolor>ffffff</textcolor>
<scrollStartDelaySec>2</scrollStartDelaySec>
<animation effect="fade" time="250">WindowOpen</animation>
<animation effect="fade" time="250">WindowClose</animation>
</control>​

The result gives better usability of the guide. Depending on the scroll speed set, the scrollStartDelaySec might be better set to 3.

Glad you sorted it just for reference it behaves like it does because the default scroll delay is set to 10 secs in references.xml but adding the line to that control directly overrides that default.

Indeed, there is a 10 setting for textboxscrollup. I would still keep the 10 there because the value is not bad when reading large textboxes that contain many lines. The guide content with originally just three lines probably supports shorter delays.

I guess there is no perfect solution as long as we would not use an algorithm that dynamically adjusts the delay as a function of font and vertical box size.

I think you need to make the filmstrip ID longer in BasicHome.LatestMovingPicturesFacade.xml. it's now 480 width..

Cheers

I've try'ed that bevor, but with the same result. Only 3 Covers show'n

EDIT:: I have to make the number bigger. Then it works..

I need more help. I have changed the BasicHome Menu, the most things works fine, but when i focused the onlinevideos button, then i have no background image. The id from the onlinevideos button is 700 and this is the code in basichome.Backgroundselected.xml

<!--            :: Online Videos ::            -->
<control>
<description>Online videos Background</description>
<type>image</type>
<id>0</id>
<posX>0</posX>
<posY>0</posY>
<width>1920</width>
<height>1080</height>
<visible>control.hasfocus(700) + plugin.isenabled(OnlineVideos)</visible>
<texture>hover_OnlineVideos.png</texture>
<shouldCache>true</shouldCache>
<animation effect="fade" start="100" end="0" time="250" delay="0" reversible="false">Hidden</animation>
<animation effect="fade" start="0" end="100" time="250" reversible="false">Visible</animation>
<animation effect="fade" time="250">WindowOpen</animation>
<animation effect="fade" time="250">WindowClose</animation>
<animation effect="zoom" start="105,105" end="110,110" time="20000" tween="cubic" easing="inout" pulse="true" reversible="false" condition="string.equals(#skin.enable.animated.background,True)">Conditional</animation>
<animation effect="slide" start="0,0" end="-30,-30" time="10000" tween="cubic" easing="inout" pulse="true" reversible="false" condition="string.equals(#skin.enable.animated.background,True)">Conditional</animation>
</control>
<!--            :: Trakt ::            -->

But i have no background...

Hi,

the reason that the hight of that textbos is 110 and not 152 is because of the guidecolor boxes like you can see in the image bellow:

But maybe I can fint a way around it.

Ah, I see. I am not using the genre coloring because of crappy genre data quality. Some content is correctly tagged but most is not and hence I didn't see much value for myself and forgot that this coloring option exists. Of course this can be different for other providers and others may like the genre coloring.

But maybe I can fint a way around it.

I can think of many ways, all of them being a lot of work for you. If others see value in genre coloring, I would suggest to plug the color legend just under the 8/11 lines of TV programme. Not perfect, but no work involved other than changing a few xy coordinates.

Again, I would suggest to consider to open a separate "request/proposal" thread to collect ideas, mods and bug corrections from the community. If you plan on continuing supporting the skin, we could have @high setting you up with a separate thread section to allow the creation of sub-threads.
