Topic: Shader - Automatic switch on/off
Hi,
is there a possibility that the shader deactivate when a Video is played, and switch on again if there is just an audio-file playing. In general I use Show Cover for only audio, but it is not possible to activate both, shader and cover. Any idea how I can solve this? Maybe this is an idea for the next update? Thanks,

For now, i suppose you could use a Video skin

Here is a very simple one...

<skin name="Shader And Cover" version="8" width="1920" height="1080" breaklineV="960" >

 	<!-- COVER -->
	<group x="95" y="800">
		<deck deck="master">
			<cover visibility="not is_video">
				<pos x="+50" y="+0"/>
				<size width="250" height="250"/>
			</cover>
		</deck>
	</group>

	<logo visibility="not has_logo 'videoskin'">
		<pos x="1920-32-172" y="32"/>
		<size width="172" height="43" />
	</logo>
</skin>


Goto /VirtualDJ/Videoskins folder, create a subfolder as "CoverSkin" or whatever you want.

Copy the code, open some Text/XML Editor, paste, save as skin.xml in the CoverSkin subfolder.
I believe you need to put some png in there too... any file would do as long as it has the same name as the xml, so once you put one in there, rename it as skin.png

Open VirtualDJ goto Settings ->Interface tab ->Video Overlay tab and select the Coverskin (edit).

In the xmL above, you can change the size and position to resize and place it where you want
