Well I do no matter what drive the movie is on, but I'll try the XML-trick. BTW it's still in the new version, unfortunately. But besides this little bug it's a great player. Keep up the good work :D.

Note an update (still build 808 but dated 30-04-04) was released !!
:lol:
Thanks bst :!:
:wink:

Using the updated build 808, it did nothing for me in correcting this skin changing issue. But on a related issue, this bug also causes the "Directory for Captured Images" under the General configuration to lose its setting. I did however tried that XML-trick, but that too was unable to work around the issue. I would say that about every 1 out of 5 video opens is when the issue happens.

If it helps, the skin that I'm using is the nickyz DVP v3.

quick solution:
go to dir webteh/bsplayer/skins and rename default skin to default_old and then give the name "default" to skin you want.ps:extension must be bsz so it have to look like default.bsz

Good idea, though in my case there isn't any default.bsz file. The default is a folder with the label of Base. Within that folder is a configuration settings file, an DAT file, and a bunch of BMP files. I could probably rename the folder. Then maybe I'll finally get that skin transparency that I've always wanted? :lol:

yes rename the folder and then give the name "Base" to skin you want.

ps.actually i think its enough to change name of your favourite skin to Base
and then from preferences choose Base skin

sorry i was thinking default allude base...

That worked. And I know for certain as the "Directory for Captured Images" under the General configuration will change back to nothing.

I tried renaming a different skin to Ace.bsz to see if the configuration skin chooser was defaulting to the top of the list, but it remained at Base.bsz. Perhaps these two issues are related to some kind of program safe mode? :?

hi guys, can you help me out with something? I'm using build 808 on XPsp1... now, I've used BSplayer on this system before, but I installed the latest version and now the skins are going all over the place. When I try to access the skins menu in "preferances" a
