Awesome, I want to try it! I have a remote.

I can upload it, but I wasn't really carefull when creating events, so some might be in the "not skin" part.

Give me til after lunch and I'll upload it somewhere.

EDIT: I uploaded to the ptah above:DS

I uploaded sendfocus.exe that should be located in the xlobby directory. This is neccesary for the dscaler to work properly.

Uploaded eventgroups.zip that are the default eventgroups just in case I missed to place them in the skin part.

Okay, here are the probs im having, great skin clone btw!

Although all my movies are stored on my hd, everytime i try to play one it acts like its a offline dvd saying insert the disc, etc. I messed around with zp and still couldnt get it to do anything dif.

Not experienced in the offline movie area, so I may be missing something.

2nd, When you click on a album in the album view of music, and then you go to the details (it should do this automatically, imho), if you push over on the remote, it takes you from the play buttons to the tracklist, but when you push left, you cant go back to the play buttons, it just scrolls the tracklist up and down. I believe to scroll the tracklist it should be up and down, to send focus between the tracklist and the play, etc buttons, it should be left/right.

Overall, its very close to what im looking for, the closest so far. Its set up feels similiar to myhtpc, which is known for its ease to navigate. I think a few skinners should play around with myhtpc, and see how it navigates, because its much more comfortable than the standart xlobby way.

Sorry but I don't have ANY movies on the harddrive. Only dvd:s, so I haven't tried

Music:
When u click album, it adds the album to the playlist. It does not play. it does not take u to the details. I wanted it like that so one can add alot of albums easily and just press play when u want.

I think wants wrong is the startup toggle in the event. Load the eventgroups in the zip file (backup yours first) and see if it helps.

Hmm, ill check it out, I know on mine, when you click a album, it does auto play. It doesnt take you to the details screen, but it does autoplay.

ok.
I removed autoplay. It's in the startup event group

I don't cklick the album, I press the button "Play Album"
remember I don't have a mouse. When I click "Play album" it adds the album to the playlist and stays in the music plage.

For all you Swedish people out there. I am using O2Grabber to get the TvGuide listing. It works perfect exept for the details of the program. That does not get imported into Xlobby. reported as a bug.
