This takes out the "Media Center" text on the main menu, but it also removes the running time info of videos during playback

[zeevgrim]

you want just the time for playback or also the title in playback ?
if just the time text
go to the original "Includes_Header.xml"
and back to the original lines

<include name="GlobalTopBar">
<control type="group">
<include>GlobalLeftHeader</include>
</control>
<control type="group" description="Main Header">
<visible>!Window.IsActive(DialogButtonMenu.xml)</visible>
<include>Animation.VisibleFadeIn</include>
<include>Animation.VisibleFadeOut</include>
<control type="group">
<posx>-10</posx>
<include>HeaderMainInfo</include>
</control>
<control type="group">
<include>Animation.VisibleFadeIn</include>
<include>Animation.VisibleFadeOut</include>
<visible>!Window.IsActive(DialogKaiToast.xml)</visible>
<include>HeaderRightInfo</include>
</control>
</control>
</include>

now go to line

<include name="HeaderMainInfo">
<control type="label">
<posx>245</posx>
<posy>25</posy>
<width>1200</width>
<height>100</height>
<font>Font-Header</font>
<label>$VAR[MainHeaderLabel]</label>
<aligny>top</aligny>
<textcolor>$VAR[TopBarMainLabel]</textcolor>
</control>

and replace it for this

<include name="HeaderMainInfo">
<control type="label">
<posx>245</posx>
<posy>25</posy>
<width>1200</width>
<height>100</height>
<font>Font-Header</font>
<aligny>top</aligny>
<textcolor>$VAR[TopBarMainLabel]</textcolor>
</control>

this how the change look like in playback

Hey guys,

additionally here's a more simple hack to achieve removing the "Media Center" text but keep the main header label in general for other infos.

Remove default "Media Center" text from home screen when no header text is set by user:

1. Navigate to skin.eminence/1080i

2. Open the file Includes_Header.xml and go to:

Code:

<variable name="MainHeaderLabel">
        [...]
        <value condition="!IsEmpty(Skin.String(home.headertext)) + [Window.IsVisible(home) | IsEmpty(Container.NumItems) | Control.HasFocus(9500) | Control.HasFocus(9501)]">$INFO[Skin.String(home.headertext)]</value>
        <value condition="Window.IsVisible(home) | IsEmpty(Container.NumItems) | Control.HasFocus(9500) | Control.HasFocus(9501)">$LOCALIZE[31176]</value>
        <value>$LOCALIZE[15100]</value>
</variable>

3. Modify the last three (value)-lines like:

Code:

<variable name="MainHeaderLabel">
        [...]
        <value condition="Window.IsVisible(home) | IsEmpty(Container.NumItems) | Control.HasFocus(9500) | Control.HasFocus(9501)">$INFO[Skin.String(home.headertext)]</value>
        <value>$LOCALIZE[15100]</value>
</variable>

Using this there will be no main header label on the home screen unless you won't set a user defined
header text within the Eminence skin settings by your own. But if you want to do so, you can still set
a custom string or even change it back to "Media Center" without altering the XML file again.

3. Just replace the value on the last line with an empty string:

Code:

<variable name="MainHeaderLabel">
        [...]
        <value></value>
</variable>

cheers

Thanks but did not work for me

<variable name="MainHeaderLabel">
<value condition="Window.IsVisible(LoginScreen.xml)">$LOCALIZE[20096]</value>
<value condition="Window.IsVisible(3063)">$LOCALIZE[31164]</value>
<value condition="Window.IsVisible(script-globalsearch-main.xml)">$LOCALIZE[283]</value>
<value condition="Player.HasAudio + IsEmpty(Window(10025).Property(TvTunesIsAlive))">$INFO[Player.Title]</value>
<value condition="Player.HasVideo + !VideoPlayer.Content(livetv)">$INFO[Player.Title]</value>
<value condition="Player.HasVideo + VideoPlayer.Content(livetv)">$INFO[VideoPlayer.ChannelNumber,, ]$INFO[VideoPlayer.ChannelName]</value>
<value condition="Player.HasAudio + IsEmpty(Window(10025).Property(TvTunesIsAlive))">$INFO[Player.Artist]</value>

<value condition="substring(Container.FolderPath,plugin://,left)">$LOCALIZE[24000]</value>
<value condition="Window.IsVisible(MyPVR.xml)">$LOCALIZE[31175]</value>
<value condition="Container.Content(files) | substring(Container.FolderPath,sources://)">$LOCALIZE[1214]</value>
<value condition="!IsEmpty(Skin.String(home.headertext)) + [Window.IsVisible(home) | IsEmpty(Container.NumItems) | Control.HasFocus(9500) | Control.HasFocus(9501)]">$INFO[Skin.String(home.headertext)]</value>
<value condition="Window.IsVisible(home) | IsEmpty(Container.NumItems) | Control.HasFocus(9500) | Control.HasFocus(9501)">$LOCALIZE[31176]</value>
<value></value>
</variable>

I'm sorry - had confused the "Media Center" string with the one for "Library".

Fixed the instruction in my post.

[josch]

No problem.

I already posted my modifications around the threads when people asked for something.
Nothing big, just small tweaks like this one here.
