Problem with buttons in My Programs, Movies etc

[thedirtyshark]

Hi,

1) This problem has been bugging me for a while (i think since upgrading to version 2.0) and so I finally decided to upgrade to the T3CH 2006-12-17 build to try and resolve it. For some reason, a lot of my buttons in the side panel of My Programs or Movies or Music have no text and are therefore blank. I know what they're meant to say, but thats not the point. I thought it may have been where I'd edited myprograms.xml for example so just replaced the entire skin folder without keeping my alterations. It also happens in Settings and in other windows such as Appearance etc.

2) Now from replacing the entire skin folder, I've lost one of my favourite edits that I made previously. When pressing the info/white button whilst watching a movie, rather than just having the movie duration overlay come up in the top corner, I'd added a horizontal strip overlay towards the bottom of the screen that included the thumbnail of the movie and its title, year etc. i remember doing this after reading a post in this forum (i think) but cannot find it again. If anyone follows what I mean, could you point me to the correct file so I can grab the code and re-do this nifty little addition.

Cheers
Elliot

1. you didnt upgrade correctly. the xbe, skin, and strings.xml all need be from the same exact version or you'll get problems like this. if you're only missing text, then you likely have an old strings file.

Cheers, that sounds about right. I was pretty lazy on my last upgrade and just copied my old strings.xml across to keep the edits I'd made and the same again with this upgrade. I'll have a look when I get home and repost if i have no luck.

Thanks for the quick response

For (2) I found the addition I made, added this code to my VideoFullScreen.xml:

to give a sweet looking info bar on the screen showing the imdb thumbnail, the name of the movie, the duration etc, when the info/white button is pressed.
