i don't have sat radio here so can not test .
i know XM and Sirius skin load is hardcaoded to rr,and you can use
LOAD;XM.skin, but i'm not going that way so i need to make sure this is correct or even poss.
LOAD;SATRADIO.skin||XM
or
LOAD;SATRADIO.skin;XM
want to make sure this will call my skin file and still activate the correct sat radio func.
thankyou and enjoy

I'm pretty sure that would not work, as calling the "XM" cmd would still load the xm one. Just as "Load;MyAudio.skin||AUDIO" would still load the audio player skin....

arh ok so what can i use instead, as all my satradio stuff will be loaded under this skin file name SATRADIO, so i need to make sure that it will call the correct function to the correct skin file.
the skin file will not exsist till you select it, which in turn will load SATRADIO.skin with the correct code for your selection.

Might try this...
First delete the first three lines in your SATRADIO.skin:
Code:
MEDIACAR Skin
MEDIACAR success Skin
EMPTY.png,OFF.png,ON.png,DOWN.png
.
In the XM.skin add:
INC,SATRADIO.skin
In the SIRIUS.skin, add:
INC,SATRADIO.skin
that way, the contents of SATRADIO.skin is common to both XM and SIRIUS and the main functions will be stored in SATRADIO.skin.

yes thats sort of the way i'm going , but i still need the launch code to be correct, dose'nt matter whats in the skin, if i can not get the correct launch code to run the SATRADIO.skin and activate the correct satradio code
as rr stands now to launch you use XM or SIRIUS cmds as button cmds,which in turn will load the xm.skin or sirius.skin and activate the correct function, this is what i'm after loading my satradio.skin and the correct function started.

I know what you mean.
The way I did it was I set up a skin variable w/ a menu to let the user choose which sat radio they were using and saved that value. That way, the user didn't have to open the skin file to edit the button code. Not to mention my button codes were somewhat...complex.
So, instead of "XM" or "SIRIUS," I used:
"SATRADIO","BYVAR;xmorsirius;XM<<SIRIUS"

Yeah, "XM" or "SIRIUS" will still load their respective screens, but if you do the INC method I posted above, SATRADIO.skin will hold the bulk of your skin code.
i.e. XM.skin
Code:
MEDIACAR Skin
MEDIACAR XM Skin
MMI-04_1EMPTY.png,MMI-04_2OFF.png,MMI-04_3ON.png,MMI-02_4DOWN.png
/,INC,File
INC,SATRADIO.skin
END
