Would it be possible to change the volume control color without affecting other colors within the skin?

Hi microbrew.

Thanks for the support. Glad you like the skin.

It's only possible changing that color by editing the xml files manually.
I can guide you through it, but you should note that all custom edits are overwritten each time the skin updates.


Please let me know if you have any other questions or suggestions.

Hi Gade,

That would great.

I’ve done some editing before in the colors default.xml. I looked in the DialogVolumeBar.xml also, but didn’t see any color settings.

Go to Skin Settings > Media > General > Select rating (and choose My Rating).

Please let me know if everything works as expected.

 Hum, there's something wrong yet, I choose My Rating in Media, as you said, I still don't see the stars... BUT... if I disable Star Rating from the View Options menu, then I see raw numbers for My Rating. Those numbers are correct, but not particularly nice to see compared to stars. I was expecting the View Option to actually either show the stars or show nothing.
I also had some problem installing the dev version from the 2.0.3 repository, it was only suggesting version 10.x.x... I had to install the older 2.0.2 repo and then I got the new version of the skin.

I only have one minor usability concern, when a row is selected it's really hard to distinguish on/off stars. Maybe the non active stars should just have an outline, rather than a grey fill.

The volume control is an image.

So the only way to achieve this is to add a colordiffuse to the image.

Colors are hex colors.
The first 2 letters control the transparency (ff is full visible).

DialogVolumeBar.xml:
add "colordiffuse="ffxxxxxx" somewhere in line 33 and 34.
Example:

Code:

<texturebg border="5" colordiffuse="ff777777">controls/volume-slider-background.png</texturebg>
<midtexture border="5" colordiffuse="ff777777">controls/volume-slider.png</midtexture>

includes_StatusBar.xml:
add "colordiffuse="ffxxxxxx" somewhere in line 140 and 141.
Example:

Code:

<texturebg border="5" colordiffuse="ff777777">controls/volume-slider-background.png</texturebg>
<midtexture border="5" colordiffuse="ff777777">controls/volume-slider.png</midtexture>

It's a minor detail anyway and it's your design, so I'll take whatever you think makes sense. (Sorry this is an horrible edit, but I only had Paint available)

Thanks

(2019-01-04, 12:45)Maboz Wrote: I use TV Shows, but most of the "aired" info (Wday, NextDate, Status, LatestXXX, TodayTotal) is a bit pointless outside of the US (some seasons are not even ported to other countries, or ported much later). The only useful field seems to be Genre, but I usually know what I'm looking at, so I'd not care.

You can localize a lot of stuff and also disable any background actions in the section 
"Download TV information"
Set both settings to off.

I have TV Show - Next Aired 7.0.1, if I open its settings I only see a Program section, and it doesn't have options to disable anything... I guess it's because I have MarcelVedt beta repo installed. I'll see how things evolve, many of these add-ons (like Artwork Downloader) look a bit unmaintained (for obvious life reasons).
