adding cover flow/poster view for games in Confluence?

Post by Emperor Bohe »

is there anyway to add a "cover flow"/poster view for games in Confluence? something similar to the current games view on Xbox 360 would be amazing:

if it's not possible to add this view for games in Confluence, are there any other XBMC skins that offers something similar for games?

if i remember, download your font, go inside your 720p folder or pal folder which ever its located at, now open and see what it says

it will say like <font>arial.ttf</font> you can either rename this area the whole font.xml or just rename your font you want to arial.ttf and send it to your font folder Skin/Confluence/font

besure you back up your font folder and your font.xml before you start moving/replacing :)

Is it possible to do this in any skin or does it have to be a specific skin. I currently use (and love) xbox-classic

This wiki page might give you the technical info to make more sense when you look at how other skins did it.
