Check it out - update!

Fixed: Menu overlays (when playercontrol is active, without cover) wasn't working, moved the includes over the individual XMLs.
Added: "Custom Background Folder" skin option + new multiimage to includes/Startup.xml.

for those who can't or won't do SVN builds, here's Revision 219 of this skin, which is current as of this post time.

probably a basic question - tomatok - 2007-01-08 16:20

Hi. Having problems viewing this skin properly and not sure what I am doing wrong.

I am using the latest files fro Clearity and a 1/1/07 build of XBMC. The skin works partially but in any of the graphical views (eg Pics/Album Art) the main centre image just isn't there. I can see the smaller faded background images along the top and bottom but the middle third of the screen is just black.

Am I doing something simple wrong?

The pics of the skin look fantastic and what I can see looks very impressive on screen, however I am using a CRT tv and the text across the top menu isn't especially clear. Otherwise very impressive.

Hope someone can point me in the direction of getting it working properly.

Nice but.. - Zapata - 2007-01-08 20:51

It doesn't work for me, the skin loads and i can play around with all setting but as soon as i go into any media menus i.e My Music, My Pictures etc... the screen goes gray.

The xbox seems to live cuz i can eject the DVD tray but it's othervise dead and does not respond to any pressed keys, rebbot is the only way out.

Too bad, it looks really nice!!!!

PS I'm using the latest compiled version in this thread. DS

if doing a svn update of this and pdm is it ok to build the new version over the old one or should i delete the build folder (or at least the contents of the build folder)?

Thanks for the reply - I must remember never to try and explain anything when my two year old daughter is within fifty feet - mind goes to mush.

Anyway, this is what I can see in the Big Icons view of Music. I get the same on all the different views (big/small/list in music/videos/pictures etc)

Any ideas?
