Final Confusing Elements Of Xbmc

I have XBMP running just the way I like it but really want to move over to XBMC now that it's catching up and, in many areas, moving past XBMP.

I've still got to figure out some things. I keep doing the UI and Screen calibrations and nothing I do will keep the UI fully on the screen. The large counter for songs is never fully onscreen and the 1/2 v ^ dialog (that lets you move between pages) is always in the middle of something on the screen.

Regarding "large Counter" - this is not an issue with XBMC itself. The problem here is in skin config files.
You have to go through musicOverlay.xml file and edit the following section:

<control>
<description>big play time label</description>
<type>label</type>
<id>6</id>
<posX>710</posX>
<posY>470</posY>
<label>-</label>
<align>right</align>
<font>font20</font>
<textcolor>55B2D4F5</textcolor>
</control>

Numbers in <posX> and <posY> are coordinates on the screen

The musicOverlay.xml file is located under skin/[your skin] folder, i.e. I use MediaCenter skin, so the the file is in skin/MediaCenter folder.

Happy editing.
