In Coverflow view all my movie posters look "wider" than they should be and from that new screenshot up there it looks to be continuing in that tradition. I'm not complaining cause I still love the skin, just inquiring.

The same problem seems to exists in chi3f's new screenshot. Dimensions/ ratio should be 1000x1500, what is being used?

An idea, btw, what about making nice backgrounds for the homescreen รก la Apple TV?
It could work similar to AEON with different backgrounds for different sections, but with some nice looking covers instead.

In xTV, how do you bring up the "favorites" menu using the dvd remote from the home screen? In PM3, this is the blue icon next to the red power icon, and usually I just arrow over to it.

You don't. The button for it is in the shutdown menu.

You can customize the buttons if you want.

I mapped the "0" button on the dvd remote to bring up the shutdown menu when I'm at the home screen.

Cool. Thanks!

When playing a movie, could you add some alternative so you can exit/skip dvd-movies?

Here's what I meant by backgrounds in homescreen:

Inspired by the new xTV-version I thought I could "help" some with the player controls. It's a bit Iphone-inspired, the apple tv approuch doesn't leave much room for extra controls.

The highlighted backwards-button is a hover effect. I've also add back to main menu-button (arrow), on top of the normal playlist, favorites, sound and video buttons.

Thoughts?

It remains even when I turn off "use watched state overlays".

Any idea why this would be happening?

I just updated to the latest build and got the same problem, anyone found a solution?

When you say two separate releases do you mean you're still going to update the old style xTV for things like fanart?

I really like it. I will have to talk to Mbezik about it.

Yes. All in due time.

We have been working on it. Slowly but surely. We still have all the dialogs to do and maybe some reworking of some of the list views.
