In any skin, is it possible to have the Remix field information also displayed next to the Artist - Title section above the decks? I used to have it after the title but now Remix has it's own field. I getRemixWhenParsingFilenames set to YES so it can fill the Remix field from the file name

Some of my skins offer this. Check in the skin downloads section.

Got the answer from Dan Batchelor from the VDJ Official Group on Facebook:

You will need to edit the XML as Wayne says. To do this you will need to unzip the skin file. Then open "4 Decks.xml" in Notepad. Once open use CTRL+F to open find and search for "%title" - you should then see this:

<text size="24" color="#E1E1E1" weight="bold" scroll="yes" format="%Title"/>

You will need to change this to:

<text size="24" color="#E1E1E1" weight="bold" scroll="yes" format="%Title - `get loaded_song 'remix'`"/>

You will need to repeat this for every instance of %title. (I think about 8-12 times).
Then save the XML again. You will then need to Re-Zip ALL the files again. Name the ZIP file as "EDIT" or whatever you like to distinguish it. The ensure the zip file is in the skins directory.

Relaunch VDJ and you should see the new skin in the Interface menu,
