XBMC4Xbox

Hey guys,

I've written a script in python, which ports 1080p Gotham skins to XBMC4XBOX. At least it should because some things aren't implemented yet,
but I'll implement all things I come across.

Changelog:

v0.1.1
- unicode fix
- non int value fix
- keyword fix for "-"

Here is a list about what I know is missing and will be implemented soon:

- Autocreate right folder structure and skin.xml file, remove addon.xml
- Autoresize (if needed) textures and maybe autocreate xpr
- Autodelete xml files which are for gotham version
- also change font size proper
- recognize align parameters (e.g. r,s)
- also work for not gotham skin

For now you have to delete addon.xml by yourself and create skin.xml with following content: and the folder name of xml files should be named "720p" similar like in the following picture:


Easily place the py file and skin folder in same folder eg. both on desktop than change the name of skin in py file. Now run via "python.exe Path\to\file.py"

Here is an example of script result

Im sorry but i cant get this to work i tired a skin but not luck

Can you please tell me what is not working for you and which skin did you use?

This sounds very cool, watching with interest

Thx mate, I would like to improve this very much. unfortunaly I dont know which things unless what I mentioned have to be implemented and their algorithms
If someone knows things that aren't already on the list pls post

Great work....!! keep us posted

hi tim!

zum downgraden eines Skins von 1080p to 720p gibt es eine bessere Solution als deinen Python script!
Mir geht es vor allen Dingen darum das, das gegebene Programm dann den Skin xbox komptibel macht .
Es ist ja schließlich einiges unterschiedlch von main xbmc zu xbmc4xbox.

to downgrad a Skin from 1080 p to 720p give it better Solutions as your python script.
i want a program that make the Skin compatible then it give many different from main xbmc to xbmc4xbox.

For Downgrading Skins is xbmcconvertgui nice you can it search on the xbmc.org forum.
Minimal Installation solution is Win XP service Pack 3 to test the skin or work on the skin use the win 32 Xbmc4xbox Build .
You find the Downloads for the xbmc4xbox Builds on the development sektion.

Yes this do not macking a skin xbmc4xbox compatible but it help a lot when you Downgrad a skin from 1080 p to 720p.

So we want on the xbox a python script what look for what Version from main -xbmc the skin is.
I mean frodo , Gotham but i think frodo is the beta option to make a skin compatible.
And create a mainly xbox compatible skin!
