Ghostlines Posted November 26, 2018 Share Posted November 26, 2018 Here's another batch of addon themes. I added a folder named the same as the default Unified Refried folder with the same structure that includes the background and video border as well. You'll have to move those two files into the base theme. Unified Refried - Blizzard.zip Unified Refried - Nintendo DSiWare.zip Unified Refried - Nintendo e-shop.zip Unified Refried - Nintendo Wii Virtual Console.zip Unified Refried - Sony PlayStation 4.zip Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yelever Posted November 27, 2018 Share Posted November 27, 2018 (edited) I was wondering if there was a way to change the main platforms to static images instead of videos and have a video playing in a box on image. I was thinking something like this and have a video play in the box frame. A bit like the nostalgia theme.

You can run any main theme you want really...as long as you have the Unified Refried default theme in your theme folder for the addons to reference..the game info screen will take on the properties of the main theme though Edited November 27, 2018 by RetroHumanoid Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've tried putting the image in different places on different themes and still get a video playing the fullscreen and no image if that makes sense.

You can have a static image with no video at all. just place the image in the video platforms folder and delete the video for that platform. 2. If you want a video playing inside the tv frame, you need to create a video of the whole thing. You can use Adobe Premier and import your static image and then import the video and place it inside the frame. then save the video of the whole thing.

On the Nostalgia theme it has the static images for each system and separate videos play in the TV frames so I'm guessing it can be done some how.

The Refried theme is not set up that way...in order to do what you are asking,it requires a rewrite of the Platform view xaml. You can feel free to browse through the default Refried menu artwork..it's in the Images folder inside the theme...and you can replace them with the ones you want to use...but,you will still need to alter the location and size of the video,as well as remove alot of stuff you don't want from it or it will still show. This will also only change the default artwork,so it will be the same across the whole theme for all platforms. If you want different art for each system,while it is possible,that's just not possible with this theme. I did mess around with different images for each system in the platform view,but,it was not the direction I wanted to go in the end with the theme,so I abandoned the idea and scratched the code.

Fellow Posted November 27, 2018 Share Posted November 27, 2018 I normally lurk, but just wanted to drop a note giving huge kudos to you for the TON of work you're putting in on your theme. I can tell it's a passion project, and the amount of hours/days/weeks/months that you're dedicating to it is inspiring. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
angelobodetti Posted November 27, 2018 Share Posted November 27, 2018 @RetroHumanoid all the new sub categories look great. I look forward to adding to my build. Do we need to wait for an updated refried or will it all work now? I know i saw some random threads with issues and I see that a new official release came out.

I have to update the Default theme...as well as the Collections/Genres/Developer/Favorites packages...the platform addons should technically not need any changes. I will make that a priority today. 3 hours ago, zetec-s-joe said: Love all the updates to this theme, so much work done!
