RE: CCM - Confluence Customizable Mod - jmh2002 - 2013-11-28

At the moment the only relevant points I can add are:

- I am using a MySQL database (this has not changed, it has always been like this)
- I dont use Artwork Downloader, only basic Art is added by TMDB/TVDB
- The Artwork IS set, if I bring up my Media Info Screen (and it shows everywhere else too - no Art is missing except in the OSD)
- It worked without issue before the skin was updated
(see screenshots on page 1 of this thread - its even the same example video/stream file - Gladiator)
- It still works if the file is played from a Library view, so the Art is there and can be seen by the Mod in this instance.

In other words, I havent changed anything on my side.

The problem occurred specifically after a Skin update, which based on my posts about this (new) problem here:
- 08 Aug: http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid=160184&pid=1480061#pid1480061 and here
- 07 Aug: http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid=160184&pid=1479302#pid1479302

seem to indicate it was v1.3.1 released on 07 Aug that caused the problem to start: http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid=160184&pid=1479157#pid1479157

Update 1.3.1 Released
  • [WIP] Added Minimum Spec Option - need more ideas for low powered systems
  • Added Suggested Media Button to Home screen
  • Added Trak.tv Button - (code still on Git, so may not work yet)
  • Adjusted OSD Button position & defaults
  • Bugfixes OSD Info, OSD Year, login Logo, Poster Floor Button, Search & FullScreen Icons, Music Viz Fanart, Volume Bar + others
  • Added More Menu Item Selections

I note that there does seem to have been various changes made to OSD related items in this release. Im not sure if that is relevant, but it would seem that it could be Smile

I appreciate your time taking a look into this problem, thank you Nod

Which basically falls back to the default image if there is no clearart, logo or thumb associated in the xbmc database with the media playing.

If there is no assciated Thumb, wouldnt this mean it is missing for me everywhere else in XBMC too? Library view, widgets, media info view, etc, etc.

This is NOT the case for me. All files have correct Art associated with them and it is correctly displayed throughout XBMC.


RE: CCM - Confluence Customizable Mod - Mudislander - 2013-11-28

The widgets get their info straight from the script that runs them & I haven't bothered to check how or where so better to discount them. However the library views mainly get their info from the database with a few exceptions.

I would suggest checking with default Confluence, because if your media is properly in the database then Confluence will be able to show them including the video OSD image.

Checked back on version 1.2.2 and the code to display the image is the same - still looks for "$INFO[Player.Art(thumb)]"

Code:
<control type="image" id="1">
    <description>cover image</description>
    <posx>20</posx>
    <posy>260r</posy>
    <width>300</width>
    <height>230</height>
    <texture fallback="DefaultVideoCover.png">$INFO[Player.Art(thumb)]</texture>
    <aspectratio aligny="bottom">keep</aspectratio>
    <bordertexture border="8">ThumbShadow.png</bordertexture>
    <bordersize>8</bordersize>
    <visible>[IsEmpty(Player.Art(tvshow.clearart)) + IsEmpty(Player.Art(tvshow.clearlogo)) + !Skin.HasSetting(OSDInfoLogo)] | [IsEmpty(Player.Art(tvshow.clearlogo)) + Skin.HasSetting(OSDInfoLogo)]</visible>
</control>

- If the Video is played from a Library view, CoverArt is displayed on the FullScreen OSD per normal.
Not quite sure what to say or do... Huh


RE: CCM - Confluence Customizable Mod - Mudislander - 2013-11-28

You could try edit VideoFullScreen.xml and use

Code:
$INFO[VideoPlayer.Cover]

as the texture, but don't think it'll help.

Other than that I'd suggest asking in a more generic thread, maybe someone else has overcome the problem.

Christmas Theme...

Love the Christmas Theme Mudislander - Thanks so much !

If it included a "Christmas Movies" filter, it would be even more perfect (I still suffer xbmc Newbie Disease, and don't have genres & smart playlists under control yet Confused).

Cheers,
Grant

Thank you, Ill give it a try. Do you think this problem is now caused by the widget? (strange that it happens from search too, and also that it used to work without this problem).

Looking forward to the next update with this new functionality Smile Cool

All my TV show Plots are marked as unavailable under my wife's profile but they are just fine under normal Confluence or any other skin i use.
Also a feature request:
Being able to change the thumbnail of the add-on Shortcut item when its a favorite.


RE: CCM - Confluence Customizable Mod - xbmckid2012 - 2013-12-02

Im using raspbmc and in system menu there is sub menu item for openelec. Can this be removed.

also I want to add live tv .... recordings to my movies menu. Can this be done.

dont want a link to the folder. I want to create the same sib menu item in a different menu.

lastly I assume thst live tv menu or system menu cant be eddited in skins screen.

Love the skin... makes my Pi an excellent device.

I'll check for you, Is your profile the Master profile.

The MOD is unable to change a favourites icon itself as it gets the info from the addon script.favourites and just uses what's given. However in theory you should be able to change the thumb with a right click on the item in the favourites window and then re-add the favourite to your menu. Not tested Smile

No the profile is the secondary, since it's my wife profile.

RE: CCM - Confluence Customizable Mod - SwedishGojira - 2013-12-05

I love this skin, but suddenly have one small problem using it with the latest versions of Gotham since they changed how the subtitle add-on works. Any chance you could make a small edit to fix the subtitle button on the OSD for the newer Gotham builds? Or I can do it myself, if you can give some nice instructions on how to do so easily (I hope).


RE: CCM - Confluence Customizable Mod - Mudislander - 2013-12-05

Still undecided about Gotham, there's a lot more changes than the subtitles button eg the update library is gone from the context menu. Might be easier just to restart the Mod from scratch.

Give me a couple of days to decide Smile


RE: CCM - Confluence Customizable Mod - mxlance - 2013-12-05

thank you so much for this mod. i have been using xbmc for nearly a year now. after tring a few skins i settled on aeon nox and then recently started using mq5. really liked the looks and the fun features but both were slow on my 2009 mac mini. by chance i came across your mod and decided to give it a try.

wow! i am amazed how much faster things are throughout the skin. i am using an eyetv hd and the eyetv parser add-on. i can for the first time watch live tv within xbmc using the eyetv parser. i am also using navi-x now. it is working faster and smother also for some reason. i am sold on using your mod from now on. the speed and smoothness is worth the loss of a few bells and whistles.

to anyone using a slower system i highly suggest taking a good look at this skin.

thanks again
