Thanks for the info, but I have tried installing the latest ver. (which works fine with this skin for me) and the ver. you posted, yet I can't get the different views you have. What am I missing to get more options on viewing my library?!? All I have are three options, and none give me the "iTunes" layout you have.

[graphicsgod]

Also the version you posted is very sluggish compared to the latest ver., FYI.

@graphicsgod yeah i know that video is old i dont even use showmix anymore new videos coming very soon just working on them now with loads of new stuff the thing is is that i cant release any until all are done otherwise people start asking wheres part 3 or 2 when i have only made one.

[iMeAgainstTheWorldi]

@graphicsgod you have to set the movies or you will only get 3 views by pressing C on keyboard then selecting set content under videos section

Im running windows vista had xbmc installed but came across ur videos uninstalled and replaced with svn version,After installing the new xbmc wouldn't load had a d3dx 41 dll not found,so i d/l directx11 worked fine. Followed everything fine until i got to the point where you were messing with the NEW VIEW LAYOUT i applied it forced XBMC to shut down. Now i could open XBMC but once i try to enter the movie secion it shut's down any idea's went wrong?

Man i have the same problem as graphics god, i cant get the itunes style u have, ive tried everything that i know of so far

@iMeAgainstTheWorldi

I have looked everywhere, I cannot find an option to get more views. Actually I did something and now I don't even get a choice now lol. When I press right it doesn't give the menu anymore. Freakin PITA ;). Might need an idiots guide to setting just this feature up for beginners. Otherwise, everything is as I want it. Minus the plugins (ie. HULU not working properly).

ok im a mega noob. Are those the movies you already have? CUZ I HAVE NO idea how to get to that screen. So far i hate this program

Thanks for posting this for the noobs to xbmc. Quick question. What file format(s) is required/recommended so xbmc can recognize them and add them to the library? xbmc is not recognizing the avi format on my hdd. Thanks for any responses.
