Holllow Stars...what are they??

Ever wondered why there were hollow stars and full stars on iTunes album rating??
The hollow stars represent suggested rating for an album based on the ratings you put on a song in the particular album.
Hollow stars rating only appears under an album, as for a song uses a full star rating.

Half star Rating in iTunes

iTunes for Windows half-star ratings

1. Make sure you are closed out of the iTunes application.

2. Navigate to your iTunesPrefs.xml file. It’s normally located in one of the locations below.
C:\Documents and Settings\username\Application Data\Apple Computer\iTunes in Windows XP
or
C:\Users\Username\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\iTunes in Vista and Windows 7.

3. Open the file using a text editor such as Notepad or Wordpad.

4. Scroll down to where is says:

< key >User Preferences< /key >
< dict >  *

5. Below that line, type the following:

< key >allow-half-stars< /key >
< data >
dHJ1ZQ==
< /data > *

6. Close and save the iTunesPrefs.xml file.
Now, the next time you open iTunes, you should be able to give songs a rating using half-stars. The new half-star rating system is even compatible with any iPod devices you sync up with.

Avenged Sevenfold - Nightmare (Deluxe Version) iTunes LP, nightmare lyric video mod.

BACK UP YOUR ITLP BEFORE DOING THIS MOD!!!!

i just downloaded this Nightmare iTunesLP with itlp files in it, but i noticed that there's a nighmare lyric video inside the itlp folder but when i load the LP to iTunes the lyric video was nowhere to be found.
so i modified the files inside the itlp folder and make the lyric video appear under the video menu. here it goes...

the files need to be modified were:
videos.css inside the css folder
videos.html inside the view folder
data.js inside the controllers folder and
video.js also inside the controllers folder

first open up videos.css and find /buttonVideo02.png); } then add this line right after it

#videos #video3  { left:563px; top:573px;  background:url(../images/videos/buttonVideo03.png); }

close and save it

next open up videos.html and find and delete it but do not delete and

close and save it

open data.js find thumb02.png then add this line after it

" }
   
{ string: "Nightmare Lyric Video",  XID : "", src : "USWBV1000357_APR-178-23-1280-720.m4v", duration: '6:16', poster: "thumb03.png" }   

close and save it

finally open video.js and find              { selector : "#video2", action : function () { bookletController.playNonLibraryContent(appData.videos[1])} }, then add after it              { selector : "#video3", action : function () { bookletController.playNonLibraryContent(appData.videos[2])} },

close and save it

then add the LP to the library
note: if you already add the LP to the library, remove it then add it again. if you dont do this the changes you made wont have any effects.

and here's how to add the duration of the videos. it'll appear at the bottom right corner just below the video box.

the files need to be modified were:
videos.css and data.js

open up video.css and find #videos #duration {
    position:absolute;
    width:100px;
    height:25px;
    left:520px;
    top:500px;
    text-align:right;
    color:#000000;
}

change the left:520px to left:861px and top:500px to top:530px
close and save it

then open data.js
the goal in editing the data.js is to make the duration displays the real duration of the videos
find

{ string: "Nightmare Music Video",            XID : "Warner:isrc:USWBV1000362", src : "", duration: '6:16', poster: "thumb01.png" },

and change the duration to 6:08
find

{ string: "The Making Of Nightmare Music Video",  XID : "", src : "USWBV1000360_APR-178-23-1280-720.m4v", duration: '8:44', poster: "thumb02.png" }

change the duration to 9:38
close and save it.

remember modifying the *.css only applies when the LP is reloaded to the library.

pics are coming really soon...
