Higher number of recently added albums / films? - ventolin - 2013-06-15

Hey,

Is there any way of raising the number of items shown in the "recently added" widget? (albums or movies).

Thanks for all your work on a great skin, it's a joy to use.

Anyone?!

<recentlyaddeditems>35</recentlyaddeditems>

this is a value under advancedsettings.xml

it is a separate entry under <musiclibrary> and <videolibrary>

That's great! Unfortunately, it only seems to have an effect on the "recently added" playlist, and not on the Ace widget at the top of the screen that displays the recently added items, e.g.:

It would be perfect if this widget were to go on to another "page" of recently added items when the user scrolls past the end of what's displayed. Is this possible? Is the widget a part of the XBMC core, or is it an add-on or part of Ace which can be hacked?

@ ventolin
Thanks for your answer
I've created this .xml through NotePad.

advancedsettings>
<recentlyaddeditems>50</recentlyaddeditems>
</advancedsettings>

But i can not copy it into userdata.
How can i do it?
Can you help me?


RE: Higher number of recently added albums / films? - nokdim - 2013-07-26

what OS are you using for XBMC?

if its linux you can use winscp to copy it over ot just vi a file locally.
if its windows just create the file and save it to the directory.

Changing XBMC's advancedsettings.xml to increase the number is easy enough.... Like Ventolin above, Increasing the numbers on the Ace Widget is not set in advancedsettings.xml.

If someone can figure it out, it would be awesome....

Thanks,
