Hi! I'm trying to change the on-screen crossfader (the blue/red one with the song artist and title) so that instead of being synced with the volume slider, it's synced with the video crossfader. I have keys mapped on my DDJ-1000SRT to automatically fade to the left or right video, and I'd like the song artist and title to fade in/out along with that. I'm comfortable editing the XML file, what do I need to do to make this happen?

it's around the 350 to 411 region you want to be looking at

OK, it's looking like you mean these lines?

It looks like "get_crossfader_result" is the parameter that is controlling it - and links it to the volume difference between decks 1 and 2. And I don't see anything that will let me do the same but using the video crossfader :-( any suggestions?

There is nothing to get video volume
(and get_crossfader_result have some issues with more 2 decks)
you may try things like that:
param_multiply get_crossfader_result video_crossfader & param_invert
or if it's an extra crossfader just use "video_crossfader" just for the new slider
crossfader:
to change "get_crossfader_result" to new script in both action and visibility
for the text fading:
add visibility of textzones
left :
visibility="param_multiply get_crossfader_result video_crossfader & param_invert"
right :
visibility="param_multiply get_crossfader_result video_crossfader"
if you wanna make the title fix while fading , replace the <split> with a <pannel>
<panel x="+95+40+95-12+1" y="+9+15">
..you have to remove the <pos> and <left> and <right> elements in split, just keep textzones
and remove the slider
or find a way to fix the existing bug with the fader size ^^ - i fixed it to 842 here
you can try to play with
<slider action="param_multiply get_crossfader_result video_crossfader & param_invert" orientation="horizontal" visibility="param_multiply get_crossfader_result video_crossfader & param_pingpong & param_multiply 10">
<size width="842" height="100"/>
of course these are ways to explore, not a final solution ^^
