[QUOTE="Dadeo, post: 508209, member: 27204"] I THINK it is because skin defined overlays use the #Play.Current.Album tag to determine if it is video or audio playing. Perhaps the TV Gemist streams include an album tag? The only way I found around it was to use MP built-in overlays (musicOverlay.xml and videoOverlay.xml) by setting allowoverlay to yes in the xml. But since I also use skin defined overlays in aMPed, it only enables the media overlay to display properly on the TV Gemist screen, nowhere else! The MP developers are looking at overlays, and at the player.hasaudio and player.hasvideo visibility conditions, as they are broken. If those worked, then skins could define video vs audio overlays properly. Currently, MP treats all media as both audio and video, I believe this was done to support visualizations (which are video) in music windows. So I doubt it will be an easy or quick fix! Maybe ask cul8er if he can figure out a solution for x-factor - he has a lot more knowledge/experience than I do! If he does, let me know :) [/QUOTE]
