Thanks for the comments here is a small update
i have now completely changed the osd, controls, fixed the animation & snap button,
i have fixed the notification problem in the alarm section,
Added option to switch to the alternative osd in the settings
added option to disable splash screen & appbar
i will upload it tommorow as i am still changing around the music & gamertag section.
here are some images of the changes :
& senna99 Thanks, you could use this to view the video :
<control type="videowindow" id="2">
<description>My first video control</description>
<posx>80</posx>
<posy>60</posy>
<width>250</width>
<height>200</height>
<visible>true</visible>
</control>
and then to activate the video you could have something like this on another control :
<onleft>Playmedia(yourvideo.mp4,1)</onleft>
<onright>playercontrol(stop)</onright>
<onclick>Fullscreen</onclick>
or you could convert the video into a load of pictures and use a multiimage control to view it like a video, something like this :
<control type="multiimage" id="1">
<description>My first slideshow control</description>
<posx>80</posx>
<posy>60</posy>
<width>250</width>
<height>200</height>
<visible>true</visible>
<imagepath>myimagepath</imagepath>
<info></info>
<timeperimage>50</timeperimage>
<loop>yes</loop>
<aspectratio>stretch</aspectratio>
</control>
, hope that helps
