Hello,
I want to create my own skin. I have no idea where to start. I have tried to download a few creator/builder apps but can't figure them out. Is there any videos that I can watch to figure out how to use these apps. Are there videos on how to write my own xml file and create my own png images to use in the skin or is a creator app the only way?
Thanks for your help.

You can skin from scratch.
you won't find any vdj videos on making .png as that's just making a picture in photoshop or gimp.
I don't think you'll find video on writing skin.xml, as that's more text based teaching.

IMO the best way to learn is to study existing skins, and start by doing a few small modifications to them, to see how the coding works.
Don't try to start from scratch now. It'll be overwhelming for you.
The skin creator by djdad is also useful for studying the concept of XML and PNG interaction, and for getting your own project off the ground once you've learned enough to do so.

Hello, I want to modify the default video skin for broadcast ...Is there a way to edit the .xml file in the directory \\DESKTOP\Users\rouss\Documents\VirtualDJ\VideoSkins\for Broadcast, so that I remove de bottom bar that is showing a spectral view of the played sound and tha t has too much opacity and hiding a part of my video (specially when undertittles).
The codes when openning .xml file with notepad is :

....I'm sure there is a way to set what I want to display (or not) in the video skin for broadcast.
So that you can easily figure out what part of the video skin I don't want to see anymore (because it hides the video rectangle with to much opacity), I join a file of the videoskin preview where I draw a yellow rectangle around the bar that is showing a spectral view of the sound that is playing, and that I don't want to show (rather see at first). Thank you for your help. Yves
The codes when openning .xml file with notepad is :

....I'm sure there is a way to set what I want to display (or not) in the video skin for broadcast.
So that you can easily figure out what part of the video skin I don't want to see anymore (because it hides the video rectangle with to much opacity), I join a file of the videoskin preview where I draw a yellow rectangle around the bar that is showing a spectral view of the sound that is playing, and that I don't want to show (rather see at first). Thank you for your help. Yves

no need to post the full skin script
comment out the <square ... /equalizer> from the end of the skin & you're done
<:!--square...

It would be nice if these elements were switchable from either the skin window itself, the main skin, or a keyboard /controller shortcut.
Having to manually edit XML is not very user friendly for most people.
