[Theme] Core

I also have 3 more Skins in the works, all at various points of completion.

Here is somewhat of a general theme question: Can video snaps and box art/screenshot be displayed at the same time? Or can only one be on screen at a time?
-
@lilbud It's set up so the marquee tag is for logos, that sit over the top of the videos. The image tag shows whatever you have for an image (box-art or screenshot or whatever) for a second or 2, then disappears and the video starts playing.
The Detailed views show logo, box-art and screenshot because they are MIX images that have all 3.

@mattrixk So I'd have to set up a theme to display like this?

I'm sorry mate, I don't understand the question.
If you wanted a theme with that layout, you'd have to make it yourself.

@mattrixk No, I am making a theme with this layout, this is just a mockup. I was asking about how elements would be placed.

you can use 2 additional pictures while using video snaps. md_marquee and md_image. i had no idea that md_image works when video is active, but i noticed that when i was working on compressing the code for my theme template.
So if you want to use the same position/size for your cover for both views, just use something like that:<view name="detailed, video"> <image name="md_image"> <origin>1 0</origin> <pos>1 0</pos> <maxSize>0.4 0.4</maxSize> </image> </view>
Otherwise reposition your cover according to your video with a new
<image name="md_image">
block in your video section. -
@mattrixk Is there a chance for a 3.5" version as the IO offers?
It's good to see one of the old thememakers still alive ;) -
Ahh bugger, sorry @lilbud, I misread your original question. Thanks @EctoOne, it wasn't until I read your response that I realised what @lilbud was asking.
I thought the answer to the question was: "No, you can't have them both because once
md_video
starts playing,md_image
disappears" but I haven't tested that since Video Previews were first being tested, so it may have changed since then (as Ecto's answer seems to state).Bugger, I wrote this like 2 days ago and never hit submit. Oh well.

@cyperghost I'll have a look into it when I get the chance. It depends how much new artwork I'll need to do.
