Re: How can I use my MediaMVP better ?

Hi Rob

Not sure if this helps but Tony T  has been doing some dev work regarding
MVP..

Heres a copy of one of hie emails

********************************************************************

Hi all,

Have published another update at www.xplhal.com

MVP again:

1) can now replace main menu completely with own screens (use files
menumusic.bmp, menuvideos.bmp and menupictures.bmp). You must create all 3
files to use this function and ideally they'll be 600 wide and up to 480
high.

2) you can now control whether the main menu displays the cover art and/or
artist/album/track of a playing mp3 and position them and size the coverart
by adding a line to xplrionet.xml

<mvpmenu coverart="Y" left="389" top="9"
width="200" height="200"
details="Y" margin="32" artist="220"
album="250" track="280" />

To just turn everything off on the main menu <mvpmenu
coverart="N"
details="N" /> is sufficient

If you don't add the line (or some items), then the above values are the
defaults.

I'll look at the issue with music stopping after one track, and andy's
problems skinning, if i get the files ;-), in the morning. Then i start on
the kitchen...

To upgrade from versions f or g you only require xplrionet.exe

Regards
Tony
