Oh and btw, as you see, Part 1 is marked. If i push left or right or what ever, it just browses to another movie. Therefor i can't select "PLAY ALL"... And i just tried just pressing play (so it plays part1) only and then i have to push "2" to see part 2, after part 1 is done. But thats problem nr 2 Smile I would like to have the first problem fixed first. Thanks in advance Smile

You need to update your version of the skin. That text should technically not be possible.

Love the skin. Just want to know how to EXIT the skin to get back to the main directory structure to pick a different directory? I am not talking about sources, I want to go back to the original GUI.

When I hit the 'menu' button, I get the 'Request cannot be processed' error. I would expect hitting the menu button would get me back to the directory structure.

Thanks!

The "Menu" button is actually reserved for myiHome users, though I suppose it would be possible to make it customizable for everyone.

However, starting with one of the latest versions, I've implemented "custom5150.exitviamenu" from 5150. If you read 7a under the Customize notes from my my skin's readme, you'll see this option and what it does:

7a. In the skin.properties file, you'll see custom5150.exitviamenu=../index.htm
From the default Wall view, this configures where you want HOME to take you.

So HOME from any other screen but the 1st Wall will take you to the 1st Wall. Then HOME from the 1st Wall will take you to wherever you set in custom5150.exitviamenu.

Hi ejp,

I have a huge HD Archive and some SD Movies in it. I used this line
Code:
# Base name of HTML page pointed to by index.htm, and for the HOME button. Default is blank.
mjb.homePage=Other_HD_1
# name of the index file generated: use index_sd.htm for SD skins
# default value is index.htm which is good for HD skins
mjb.indexFile=index.htm

# When viewing the main Wall screen (default is Other_All_1.html), you can configure where the "Home" button takes you here.
# ../index.htm acts like the above "mjb.indexFile=index.htm"
custom5150.exitviamenu=../Other_All_1.htm
to start with my HD Collection, when I start my Jukebox. For seeing my SD Colection too, I have to go to "All", in the Genre list. Can I have it that way, that I press Home in the Detail Page, and my PCH takes me to My Wall-View HD Collection (Other_HD_1), and when Im in the Wall View, I press Home again, and Im in whole collection (Other_All_1.htm), with SD Movies, too? When I use this line, and pressing Home in the Wall View, my PCH takes me everytime to my HD Collection (Other_HD_1) ;/.

I think you should just try:
custom5150.exitviamenu=Other_All_1.htm

...without the "../" in the beginning.

ejp,

Thanks for the reply. The problem I see is that this line wants to load the index.htm file, which already resides in the root directory. Where can this line of code point to in order to get back to the original GUI? From what I can figure, if the internall HDD doesn't have an index.htm, then the default GUI loads. If there is one, it will load that and only that.

I am not a coder by any means, so I maybe missing your point. Thanks for the great skin!

I think I fixed the issue, but I would like to send the modified index.xsl file so you can test it out to make sure it works how you want. Can you post or PM me your Email so I can send it directly?

Yes, you'll have to change that "../index.htm" to where you want to actually go. Now what that link should be ... therein lies the question. This is actually more of a general question as it's not specifically skin-related. The link you'll most likely want to put in there is:

http://localhost.drives:8883/HARD_DISK/?home=1

5150 actually has that link in there by default, but I felt not everyone wants to necessarily want to go back to this screen and thought it would be better to stay within YAMJ.

Keep in mind that the link I pasted above will only work if you kept "mjb.homePage=" blank (which usually defaults to Other_All_1.htm. If you're putting something in mjb.homePage, it won't work and you'll have to wait for the update (which I'm having j0k3r test out).

RE: [YAMJ] ÆON Movie Wall YAMJ *UPDATE* August 22, 2009 - Two New Features! - mhut - 08-23-2009 01:10 AM

I would like to know if there is a way to, making some kind of filter, when pressing "Movies" on the letter/genre up menu selection, it shows only 100% movie films. I mean, on my library, i have this "type" of movie files: movie films, tv shows, documentary (refered to BBC series as example), live music concerts, some sports and HD demos.
When i press "Tv shows", all ok, as the library is filtered and only tv shows are displayed on the screen. But when i press "Movies", yes Tv shows are filtered to not display them, but it displays all the rest of the movie types. So, on Movies, i don´t want to be displayed the documentary, live concerts, sports or HD Demo films. As the skin has a proper "shorcut" on the top menu, i don´t see the need to have my movies "messed" with that other kind of film material. I´ve added an aditional tag to all those files as genre "Other" and yes, pressing Other displays only that files, but it displays them anyway when pressing Movies, as i´ve said.
Is this possible on some way ?? Will it needs a lot of work on implementing code on the skin ?

To be honest with you, I can't quite grasp how that would be possible for a skin to do that. It seems like all that would be "figured out" before outputted to the skin ... which means, it seems like YAMJ should handle that for you.

You might try taking a look at this: http://code.google.com/p/moviejukebox/wiki/Genres

...you could add a and add all the subgenres of genres you actually want in there. I'm not sure it'll work, but to save some time, you can try adding an existing genre (Action) as a subgenre to Movies.

I'm not sure, to be honest, what it puts under Movies. I suppose everything but TV Shows? If it did everything, then it seems it acts the same as All.

If that Wiki page or anything else on the Wiki doesn't help, I would suggest posting a separate thread altogether. I'm not a professional coder by any means, but I can't quite grasp how to integrate that into the actual skin.

Do you know of any other skins that are able to filter it this way? Admittedly, I took the filtering coding from Robinsjexcal, which is a somewhat older skin, so I don't know if there have been any better filtering functions since then.


RE: [YAMJ] ÆON Movie Wall YAMJ *UPDATE* August 22, 2009 - Two New Features! - mhut - 08-23-2009 01:57 AM

Yes, i knew the genres and subgenres content, and i´ve edited mines from so far older versions of YAMJ. But not figured that what you are meaning, it seems a good point. But reading the rest of your answer, i bet that the "filters" are fully related to the categories.xml file, on which you can enable or disable a proper "Movies" category, as well anothers. Bad thing is the comments on the file prompt you to NOT add/remove any other category elements, and there is no "Other" category Undecided
So i have serious doubt about trying the genres "trick" and, as you´ve said, i suposse that it puts everything except tvshows under movies category.
I also was thinking on separate too the documentary shows from the proper tv shows, as i don´t like to have the Planet Earth BBC series, as example, on the same side as Lost, Dexter or Fringe tv shows. Actually i´m doing that separation defining the Planet Earth (and some other documentary tv series) as a "set" of movies on the .nfo files, but i´d like to have it with the Tv Show details page and keeping it out of the Tv Shows page.
Sorry about thinking that this can be skin related. And i have tested so many skins, and i think they not filter this, as far i can remember.
This is pointing to open (if not opened before) another issue sugestion on the YAMJ code site.
Thanks for the tips.

Two problems, using the latest version:

1) I'm getting some weird HTML in the upper part where the writers are

2) I'm not seeing any trailer information. I've named my trailers with the [Trailer-Name] convention, and they aren't listed anywhere?

Any ideas? TIA!

1) Latest YAMJ svn should fix that.

2) Not sure what naming convention that is. Follow these: http://code.google.com/p/moviejukebox/wiki/Trailers
