RE: Confluence Customizable Mod - sandriekus - 2013-07-23
I want to make the following modification.. is that possible with this mod?
on the home screen, I see the following tabs (weather, movies, tvshows, music, programs and settings). when I go to (highlight) movies, there will drop down a submenu with options (recently added, sets, files .. etc etc). This submenu is also shown at tvshows, music, programs and settings. How can I disable this submenu?
thanks in advice

Welcome to the forums
I don't want to jump over your first post, but please at least try to do this with the Mod. It is possible & I've answered that question on how to add stuff to the menu a couple of times now.If you then get stuck, come back & tell us what you've tried and what's wrong and someone will try help

Thanks
I just tested the toggle to disable the animation and I now see that you have still allowed a static 'working' image to be shown.
All I was suggesting was to retain some form of notification, and you have already done that. Great work as usual

Adding items to Favourites no longer seems to produce a DialogInfoScreen - maybe there are other Dialogs that are no longer showing up as well ?I also just thought I would bump this, not to push you, but just so that it doesn't get missed
Bump Again
Actually I did see it, been checking against default Confluence & (I think) I've got all the dialogs. Confluence didn't display a dialog on adding a favourite either.
Looks like someone needs to do a compiled bug/request list again

Fair enough. Ill try and get to it later today
I also note that unfortunately my In Progress Movies definitely do not work (In Progress TV Shows DO work).
However, the Movie Bookmarks are definitely being saved. I always get the prompt to Resume on the same device, and since Im running MySQL I can also Resume on another separate device, as well as pull up the Bookmarks view from the OSD showing where the Movie was paused/stopped, etc.

That topic talks about an animated gift with 2fps as beat option. There is an example which is nicer than static.

Here is 2fps busy animation if anyone wants to test. (It goes .xbmc/addons/skin.amber/media/busy/Loading.gif):
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/3669512/temp/Loading.gif
Is the static 'Working...' image that CCM still displays when 'disable animation' is set to on equivalent to '<animation> disabled' as above?
If yes, that is a huge difference (10.1 down to 6.3). Certainly I notice less lag on my iPad1 after setting this option.
Perhaps if you make some changes here 'disable animation ON' can stay as it is (static image for truly best performance), and 'disable animation OFF' can be with the 2fps animated gif (still an improvement over the 60fps spinner)? Just a suggestion
RE: Confluence Customizable Mod - Mudislander - 2013-07-23
In this Mod if "Disable Animation" is set then no graphic is shown, only a label that says "Working....."
Edit Small problem - I don't like the suggested "Amber" image
RE: Confluence Customizable Mod - popcornmix - 2013-07-23
Here are changes required for normal Confluence to use the 2 fps spinner:

Pretty similar, if you guys want to change that in the Mod just edit "DialogBusy.xml" change the

Hi Mudislander!
I hope I'm not pestering you
; but I have two requests regarding view modes:In wide view, would it be possible to show the title of the the show; either at the top or at the bottom?
Also, would it be possible to add a new view showing ClearArt or Logo?
Thank you for your time, and keep up the good work

Blast from the past
(2013-07-01, 14:06)jmh2002 Wrote: I have a few questions which can be requests if it is not too much work:
- I dont know about everyone else but I have always found the stock xbmc weather to be quite clumsy and inconvenient when it comes to quickly viewing different weather locations. What do you think about adding some arrows (maybe either side of the location text) on the new weather widget that you just made?
Next update - if you click on weather widget, it'll refresh weather conditions & advance to next location.
I actually like the idea of side buttons, since the other widgets can show them - But not working from my own PC is a bit difficult & only doing small bits of code & bugfixes

You're not pestering
Some good ideas have come because of users suggesting stuff.I like the idea of titles across the top (Hybrid has them in every view). Will look at it when I've repaired/replaced my laptop - Actually there's an old request back some pages to make that view cover the whole screen which I think looks better with titles across the top rather than in panels as most the views are now
Re 2nd request would a toggle on Fanart view to switch between the thumbs presently shown & logos be OK, or ClearArt which would everyone prefer ?
RE: Confluence Customizable Mod - whufclee - 2013-07-24
(2013-07-12, 23:31)thebearnecessit Wrote: whufclee - can you tell me how you managed to setup guisettings.xml to show a specific backgrounds folder? also what kind of backgrounds are you using out of interest?
Sorry I've just got back off holiday so don't know if this has been answered already but here goes...
Open guisettings.xml with a text editor like notepad++ and search for "weather.jpg"
In that section you'll find lots of different preset background paths, I changed them to:
special://profile/whufclee_art/backgrounds/<background_name>.jpg (change <background_name> to whatever your background is called, e.g. weather.jpg).
I created a folder in my userdata directory called "whufclee_art" and my backgrounds are in a subfolder called "backgrounds".
If you want to see what it looks like I have a youtube video
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RRPsJWj8FGw
By the way, these backgrounds really kill the performance on r-pi so I just use the global one which makes it nice and quick. As you can see in the video it works fine on HTPC though.
EDIT: If anyone knows what resolution or any tricks of the trade I should be using to optimise the background art for r-pi that would be much appreciated.
RE: Confluence Customizable Mod - Mudislander - 2013-07-24
Just out of interest, you should be able to point to alternate directories on the same machine using skin settings --> background. If there's a problem there - let me know.
