RE: [ALPHA4 Release] metroTV - Bkam - 2013-09-10

A Request, i use the i Info button to see my current time and ending time of the movies/tv shows, i kind of miss that in your skin

other then that i like metroTV alot Smile
good work

RE: [ALPHA4 Release] metroTV - locomot1f - 2013-09-10

my personal request:

condition based fanart for weather
thumbnail or poster view for videos
the purple font is TOO purple, make it hard to read... maybe something lighter.
ability to add specific add-ons to "custom" panel.

RE: [ALPHA4 Release] metroTV - relyter - 2013-09-10

- icon view
- bind favorite to a tile
- i still think that posters group in panel view should be shifted a little left Smile

RE: [ALPHA4 Release] metroTV - buymeapc - 2013-09-10

Love the skin!!

The one thing I would love to see is the ability to choose a specific add-on for the tiles.

For example, I'd like to add a Steam Launcher tile to my Games menu - as opposed to going to the games menu, selecting program add-ons, and browsing for the add-on.

Link to the add-on: http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid=157499



Thanks and keep up the great work!!!

Is planned a multilanguage Version of this skin?

I wish a german version!

and i like the lower case. :-)

Just unzip the file into the Addons directory under XMBC.

Not under Raspberry Pi - openelec -
a folder addon_data exists, when i copy in this folder it has no effect.

Please make a functionally .zip file

On my windows pc it is running.

RE: [ALPHA4 Release] metroTV - butchabay - 2013-09-11

In OpenELEC that path would be:
/storage/.xbmc/addons/

RE: [ALPHA4 Release] metroTV - Koloss - 2013-09-11

Ok, i see it! I cannot copy the files with putty, readonly!

RE: [ALPHA4 Release] metroTV - Koloss - 2013-09-11

\\xxx.xxx.xxx.xx\Configfiles\samba.conf

[.xbmc]
path = /storage/.xbmc
available = yes
browsable = yes
public = yes
writable = yes
root preexec = mkdir -p /storage/.xbmc


Next problem, the skin settings property is disabled, why?

In "All Movies" mode "view list" I missing the runtime from Movie
The MenuItem Music show no music(missing "All Music") - in other skins i see the music
I did't see recently movies etc.

Edit: The main problem is this, the skin settings property is disabled, why?
On Windows PC is enabled and on Raspberry Pi is disabled this option.

- i still think that posters group in panel view should be shifted a little left Smile While I understand what you are saying, I disagree. It is shifted to the right to show that a piece of the previous column.

In "All Movies" mode "view list" I missing the runtime from Movie I am not quite sure what you are looking for here
The MenuItem Music show no music(missing "All Music") - in other skins i see the music Which Music menu item? There are several (artists, albums, songs).
I did't see recently movies etc. The recent movies view is under the "more views" tile or you can add a dedicated tile for "recently added"


RE: [ALPHA4 Release] metroTV - buymeapc - 2013-09-12

I was playing with the latest release tonight and I noticed that the Rom Collection Browser "Most Played" widget wasn't displaying properly in the games section. It was displaying a black box and if I clicked it, it would say the script failed.

I'm going to test with it a bit more since it might just be my setup. I was curious if anyone else experienced this as well.

1. I use a Openelec Gotham Alpha build on Pi, i cannot setup the skin, when the settings disabled!
Which property set diabled or enabled it?

2. On the Pi i can see the Skin propertys in guisettings.xml save, on windows which file include the skin propertys?

3. In "All Movies" mode "view list" I missing the runtime from Movie I am not quite sure what you are looking for here
You show, genre, description, year, but not runtime! Why not? In another views it is included.

Sorry, i just meant the same as locomot1f "thumbnail or poster view". Something like current panel view in video and music, but only posters on the screen, without fanart/info group.

RE: [ALPHA4 Release] metroTV - rd1979 - 2013-09-12

Is there any way to 'reset' this skin back to its default without affecting other skins' settings? Many of the icons haven't been appearing since the previous 4.0 alpha, I just haven't had the time to say anything about this until now.

RE: [ALPHA4 Release] metroTV - locomot1f - 2013-09-12

@Koloss -- have you read about Gotham having tierd level settings?
I'm not using Gotham, so I have no idea, but it sounds like this might be what you're looking for -- http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid=163867
