Hey everyone.

I have recently set up the apple trailers (http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Myth_Apple_Trailers) add on and it works really well. I have it creating an xml file that is used to scroll through the available trailers like a normal myth menu and when a button is selected it opens mplayer and streams the file.

What I would really like to do is simulate the video browser screen to display a list of the available trailers, as well as a picture file and some other details about the trailer before the link is clicked and the trailer is streamed.

Basically what I want to know is where to start in terms of editing the video browser screen? Is it possible? Would I have to create my own plugin and if so how would I do that?

Cheers
