You should play some music. Then you should press "X" and you should have your "Now Playing" stuff... Well me thinks that is the case anyway!! Worked for me..

The thing is..this isnt the PM3 Skin its something totally different... It may be a good idea to display the title of the song and a mini icon for those that dont want to press the X button when in blade mode... Im not really fussed, the X button works fine for me when I need Bling!!

The MUSIC and VIDEO overlays where removed. They are not used by the 360 and when we tried to emulate it, it fucked up because of our vis in the background.

You can press start and see the track, or go to now playing, dont forget anywhere in the skin you press the start button and see the track info, so dont dissppair.

I understand the video overlay isn't possible, but what about just the music album art icon with the track info? It would be cool if it appeared on the "file browser" screens at the bottom left, just like the "golden ticket" version... I'm not talking about the main blades... I really miss that...

well you can press start at any time to see the now playing stuff, but adding the stuff to the main home pages, nope. Won't happen in the near future.

Maybe we will revampe the start MC360 Guide soon and have better no Playing featurs on there.

File browser screen?, take a pick of it in PM3 for me so I know what you mean.

You mean something like this? Made myself..sorry for removing the MC360 Icon, but i need the space

No, not that at all, as Blackbolt said, the main blades will not be modified (and I agree).

Besides, as Blackbolt also already explained, that visualisation overlay wouldn't be possible.

I was just talking about the album art and track info on the browser screens.

Oops..now i get it..you want the media infos directly in the file browser..sry,i misunderstood you ^^ just edit the MyMusicSongs.XML file as you want it..mine looks like that :

[Blackbolt]

OH, now i understand, FileBrowser is NOT this, the filebrowser is when you choose where your screenshots directory is or pic a custom wallpaper, thats just the main music section.

We are adding the album info box to the bottom left yes, but not a mini visualisation, just the album art.
