Adding I.P., Partitions, Temp to Start Screen in XBMC4X 3.5?

[Leijonasisu]

Hey guys. I modded my Xbox a month ago and gosh, it's taken me at least that long to dig through countless archives of content to find the latest versions of dashboards, plugins and other apps and what-have-you.

I am pretty sure I am running the latest version of XBMC4BOX (3.5 r32977) [If this isn't the latest version please show me where the latest version is, so I may compile it]
So far I love it when compared to my default launcher. XBMC4XBOX runs my CPU and Mobo temps at 10C lower than the default Mobo.

However I want to know how to add I.P. Address info, HDD Partition info and Temperatures to the home screen. I can't find the option anywhere. I know that this dash is supposed to be more of a 'Media Centre' related dash. However I really want to use it for debugging, power use also. I like that it runs cooler than the other dashes, I like the available layouts and customisable backgrounds etc. But I want this info. I know I can go to System > System Info. To see it, but I want to see it by default on my Home Screen so I can track all of that information.

Is there a way to do this? If so, how? If not, why not?

Thanks.

This is dependent on the skin you are using / want to use. Those who know about skinning will be able to answer more fully about necessary modifications to your preferred skin, you may wish to advise first which skin you want to use.

In the PMIIIHD skin it is in the skin settings. It is listed clearly as to what will be displayed and yes or no. Your IP address is only displayed when you move down to "Settings" however. F and G usage is displayed all the time but you have the choice of this being E and F or F and G. That is a setting in itself as is whether it will be displayed at all. Temp is displayed if you select it as well. I use this feature, more the F and G usage and IP address than the temp but that is up to you. A quick way to access all this info and more is simply to push the right thumb stick and that will bring up the shut down menu, move to the "I" and select. This will get you to all this info from any page in XBMC irrespective of the skin you are using. To get back out of it you simply push in the thumb stick again and it will return you back to the page you were previously on. You can do this at any time within XBMC including movie play back or music play. This is a good way to view your unused Mb to prove if you are running out of memory with movie play back.

mosaic has this in the settings which could just be replaced with the rss, then move rss maybe some where else a lot of room in this skin for thoses types of stuff,t hen move the temp, ip, partitions to the buttom, even to the top, but depends on what skin you want and which skin youw ant this to show?

is this the way you wanted the setup, I coudnt fit more then that, but if something you want removed let me know, since the music player is in the way, I can remove dvd or hd temp cpu gpu free ram internet and ip or did you also want something else? I only copied what unleash X shows, I think the only thing I need to fit in their is the hd c,e,f and g.

also I couldn't fit it anywhere else, almost everything is taken up like when ram comes down or debug is in the top middle to the left the weather, to the top right is the time and date, so this was the best place don't worry about recent movies it seems they wont be in the way of the system info, im not done since I need y ou to point out what else you wanted and also maybe I can have a tight fit for just one more thing like all drives free


please reply back and let me know what you want and if I can do it ill try my best, but I cant promise you exactly what you want.

edited : I saw that when playing a movie I had to remove the ip sorry but ill find another place for them don't worry maybe to the buttom is a lot of room to the sides.
