Still the best skin to date for XBMC!!

Must be OS specific as under Windows it works fine!

I'm olso know a bit my way arond in PS so i made a few and as soon as the new fanart.tv site is up i will upload them.

It's a pithy that to make logo's look good you need in my eyes landscape cover view or banner view the that would be great Nod
And as far i have tried in the movies that's not possible with MQ3

I use lowlist at the moment, works for me Nod

Hi
I'm having a problem with extrathumbs not showing because of samba share authentication, and Marcos already told me that this problem is not skin related but xbmc related.
Also posted a trac for xbmc, but unfortunately, extrathumbs are not a supported feature.
So... what i'm going to do, is try and edit the xml files of the skin, and put my authentication credentials in the extrathumbs "function".
Can someone be so kind and tell me what files do i need to change ?

Thanks

One last thing I was wondering as well. I installed eden but for some reason it kept giving me a message under bios for artists "Fetching artists bio from allmusic some copyright infrigement", so I went back to dharma. But when using eden i could get the actors credits in other movies in my library but I cant in dharma using aeon mq3. Anyone else got this as well? If so how can i fix that?

Cheers

I think i found it... it's views.xml, but i don't quite see how i can acomplish what i need.
Is there any way that i can add my samba share authentication (username/password) to "$INFO[Container(52).ListItem.Path,,extrathumbs/thumb1.jpg" ?

Thanks for any help

Marcos

Under Settings/Skin/Media Info the option for Show Panel Base in the following tone doesn't change if you select Light. Is this a planned change in v1.2.0 or a fault?

For favorites and smart playlists if I select the showcase viewtype, the view doesn't change if I select no Coverflow, this behaviour isn't specific to this version of MQ3, is there any reason why it behaves differently when applied to playlists rather than the default movie library?

Wow this thread is moving fast. Can someone please tell me if this is possible or not?

One thing I can't find, not sure if I'm not looking correct or if it isn't there...

I like to see the next few music tracks that will play on homescreen. I now have tracks scrolling in a submenu but that is so small and because of the scrolling I can't read them. Is it possible to show next 5 tracks (in a widget?) in homescreen?

A small idea, maybe it works: can't you use pathsubstitution for the extrathumbs ? just like you can use that on normal thumbnails:

Code:
<pathsubstitution>
        <substitute>
            <from>special://masterprofile/Thumbnails/</from>
            <to>smb://yourpcname/XBMCThumbs</to>
        </substitute>
    </pathsubstitution>

the code above is what i use to share my thumbnails between an ATV2, a laptop and a desktop with xbmc eden beta 1 and a mysql database, which works fine. I'd imagine you could try putting the extra thumbs in a shared folder and use something like

Code:
<pathsubstitution>
        <substitute>
            <from>special://masterprofile/extrathumbs/</from>
            <to>smb://yourpcname/XBMCExtraThumbs</to>
        </substitute>
    </pathsubstitution>

If this is not the way it works, i'm sorry for wasting your time Smile
