Community Skin and Music Player / Jukebox

soccerdad · 2006-11-25, 08:57 PM

Forgive me if this is a known issue. I searched but could not find it. I just started using the Community Skin (way too cool!) but found a small problem. I am using the Hi Vis Contour main menu along with the TransAM background. If I use Music Player plugin, all is well until I go to the jukebox. The jukebox then overlays on top of the music player text. The jukebox background is transparent so it looks like a jumbled mess. Is there a way to fix this?

I have a fix. I'll try to post it later this weekend.

That was a lightning fast reply Smile

Whenever you get around to it, I am in no hurry. Thanks for the help.

Jeff,

My wife has been bugging me (tuns out she is in more of a hurry than I am)so I would love to see your fix when you get a chance.

I quickly changed the image it was looking for to a large popup background.

Hope this helps in the meantime (maybe Jeff had a different/better solution like the plugin background?).

Extract the xml file to the "GBPVR\Skin\Community\Music Player\" folder

Works great! Thanks

I have posted my version at http://gbpvr.com/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Plugin/VideoArchive along with a new version of the video archive plug-in.

I have updated the skins for the video archive plug-in, show search, music player, common dialogs, and weather. I have also added the theme I use at home (which I call Green Orb). You might want to backup your community skin folder before installing this since it overwrites the skin files for all of the things I mentioned above.

With respect to the video archive plug-in, I have been using the community skin as my test bed for new skinning options in the new video archive plug-in. If you don't upgrade the VA plug-in, you will need to delete the the files List View skin 3.xml, Preview View skin 2.xml, Preview View skin 3.xml, and Preview View skin 4.xml since they use new skinning options not supported by the older version. You can also delete any of these list and preview skins that you don't like (or add new ones if you'd like). The plug-in can handle any number of skin files. it cycles through List View Skin.xml, List View, Skin 2.xml etc until it can't find any more and then it starts looking for Preview View Skin.xml, Preview View, Skin 2.xml etc until it can't find any more, at which point it wraps back to List View skin.xml.

Fantastic, thanks Jeff.
