Any way you can put a button on default skin to turn on/off the VideoSkin feature instead of having to go into options every time?

Its not every time though, if you turn it off, this is remembered :)
Only have to do that once.

I want to be able to keep it off during certain songs or parts of songs and then turn it back on. If I turn it off in options then it stays off the rest of the night unless I go back into options and turn it back on.
I just want a quick way to turn it on/off frequently during the night.

Is that exactly how it is with the double quotes in those spaces?

Yes..it looked wrong to me but it works. All the quotes seemed to much.

I did get this working; but have since edited the For Live to remove the jog wheels and the new version shows as for Live (edit) in the video skin list. When I change the script to for Live (edit):Live and click the button I get the fowling error in a pop up window:
Skin Variation not found (for Live.zip \ Live (edit))
I think the new concept of the Video and Broadcast skins are awesome; but need some more documentation on how to use and modify. Thanks.

It might be easier to just download new videoskins. They are simply .zip files which can easily be edited. I'm doubtful over the back slash.
The DJ in Norway often puts 4 skin variants in one zip file so it's interesting to see the script needed to toggle one of these. Hm..no back slash ! Just : in between the folder and relevant xml file. The default skin is unique but still should be easy.
I'll post a working non default script a little later in the day. Its simple !
(I've already done that but it was deleted by the development team)
Editing the videoskins is very similar to editing a webpage using html. OK so there are different tags but it is more or less the same. I'd recommend creating a simple webpage with images to get the idea. There are plenty of helpful tutorials.

download.. install_minimalistux4.exe
setting "videoSkin" '' ? setting "videoSkin" 'Minimalist UX 4:Titler EQ Black [light overlay]' : setting "videoSkin" ''
The thing is that you can easly modify a videoskin using webpage design techniques to create your own unique videoskin overlay (maybe promoting yourself !)
Hence this is a unique and vastly superior method of doing things when compared to the simple title addon just produced by the developement team.
I get the feeling there are a lot of people about who think dj's are too stupid to deal with technical issues.

There are a lot of people who expect software to work with a minimal interface, and feel they don't need to be programmers to change something simple.
For example you should be able to change the elements that display and possibly text size in any video skin wiothout having to modify an XML file.
that's just my thoughts.

" minimal interface, and feel they don't need to be programmers"
Hm..thats heading towards being an obsolete dj. We must embrace new technology. VDJ 2018 has the latest and greatest ideas. It is a highly scriptable software which enhances creativity.
The thing is that VDJ provides a simple interface for those that don't want to be challenged. However for those who look under the hood almost anything is possible.

Thanks guys the toggle option is now working I will have a play around customising more buttons on my Hercules MK2 (don't laugh!)
Is there a way to make the left and right buttons do different functions for example use the left "Master tempo" button for the video skin and the right "Master tempo" to toggle a video effect ?
