Display Rating attribute icon for a movie/episode

How do you display the rating attributes icon on the descriptions screen? Previously, if setup the content-data correctly for roSpringboardScreen, the attributes were displayed correctly. But, since that has been deprecated, are you supposed to use a Poster to display the icon? If so, do you get them from 'common:/'?

Thanks.

Re: Display Rating attribute icon for a movie/episode

I just ended up using my own icons/text instead. Could not find anything else that worked.

Re: Display Rating attribute icon for a movie/episode

I created a horizontal LayoutGroup to display release date, rating and hd icon.

<component name="Details" extends="LayoutGroup" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="https://devtools.web.roku.com/schema/RokuSceneGraph.xsd">[/color]
<interface>[/color]
        <!-- Content node -->
        <field id="Content" type="node" onChange="OnContentChanged"/>[/color]
    </interface>[/color]

<script type="text/brightscript" uri="pkg:/components/screens/Description/Details.brs" />[/color]

<children>[/color]
<Label id="releaseDate" text="" />[/color]
<Label id="rating" text="" />[/color]
<!--Poster id="rating" height="24" width="48" loadDisplayMode="scaleToFit" /-->
<Poster id="isHD" height="30" width="48" loadDisplayMode="scaleToFit"/>[/color]
</children>[/color]

</component>[/color]

Then in the brs file, in OnContentChange(), I update the text/icons appropriately, I used text for rating, but you can use icons if you have them or create them.

Sub OnContentChanged()
    item = m.top.content

    spacings = [15, 15, 15]

    'release date[/color]
    if item.releaseDate <> invalid and item.releaseDate <> ""
        m.top.releaseDate.text = item.releaseDate.split("/")[2] 'year
    else
        m.top.releaseDate.text = ""
        spacings[0] = 0
    end if

    'rating[/color]
'    if item.rating = "G"
'        m.top.rating.uri = "pkg:/images/g.png"
'    else if item.rating = "NC-17"
'        m.top.rating.uri = "pkg:/images/nc17.png"
'    else if item.rating = "PG"
'        m.top.rating.uri = "pkg:/images/pg.png"
'    else if item.rating = "PG-13"
'        m.top.rating.uri = "pkg:/images/pg13.png"
'    else if item.rating = "R"
'        m.top.rating.uri = "pkg:/images/r.png"
'    else if item.rating = "NR"
'        m.top.rating.uri = "pkg:/images/nr.png"
'    else if item.rating = "TV-Y"
'        m.top.rating.uri = "pkg:/images/tvy.png"
'    else if item.rating = "TV-Y7"
'        m.top.rating.uri = "pkg:/images/tvy7.png"
'    else if item.rating = "TV-Y7-FV"
'        m.top.rating.uri = "pkg:/images/tvy7fv.png"
'    else if item.rating = "TV-G"
'        m.top.rating.uri = "pkg:/images/tvg.png"
'    else if item.rating = "TV-PG"
'        m.top.rating.uri = "pkg:/images/tvpg.png"
'    else if item.rating = "TV-14"
'        m.top.rating.uri = "pkg:/images/tv14.png"
'    else if item.rating = "TV-MA"
'        m.top.rating.uri = "pkg:/images/tvma.png"
'    else
'        m.top.rating.uri = "pkg:/images/ur.png"
'    end if
    
    if item.rating = invalid or item.rating = ""
        m.top.rating.text = "NR"
    else
        m.top.rating.text = item.rating
    end if
    
    'resolution[/color]
    m.isHD.uri= "pkg:/images/hd.png"[/color]
    
    m.top.itemSpacings = spacings
End Sub

I managed spacings between items to ensure that things were spaced correctly for ex. if the release date was missing.

Hope it helps!!!
