Emulator Info In Skin: A Quick Question
« on: March 23, 2008, 11:45:00 AM »

I was revising my xtv skin mod and I got an idea. I would like to have my emulators section set up with info, similiar to the info you would get from a scrapper. However, since there is no scrapper for such a thing I was wondering how I could get certain text to show up and possibly scroll just like the episode/movie info. I was thinking of creating a view similiar to the basic-vision media info 2 view, having wide emulator icons on the left and the info of the system on the right. For example zsnexbox would have info pertaining to the snes... also in the view i would probably put icons for of the actual systems themselves, similiar to a tv episode icon.

After modding a few of my skins for my own personal use I have become semi familiar with the basic skin structure for xbmc. However I am definitely no skinner, please keep this in mind when trying to help me... that said ANY and ALL help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
