will do wyrmSmile
A picture is worth a thousand words, right mateLaugh

yes, i try it the other day it still show screenshot of the epsLaugh
hope you can add clearart suport fo next release

anyway..some sugesstion

  1. something i just noticed, when i'm using custom background, fanart doesnt appear
    could you change it so that custom background doesnt override fanart suport ?
  2. any plan to change dvd case design?
    its hard to noticed any difference if i enabled dvd case with default theme

    maybe you can change it like this

Just moved my dev system from Win XP to Win7 and am currently having issues with my SVN client. When I sort them out I have a number of changes ready to go into the google SVN. Main change that you would be interested in is the clearart support. Stay tuned.

Thinking about it that seems like a sensible sugestion, will look into it.

Sorry I have never seen a DVD sold in a case anything like that. I really don't like the in your face nature of that type of dvd case, so to this suggestion I would probably say no.

Ok guys, figured out what the issue was with googlecode (and no I'm not telling, but pretty stupid).

Have successfully made a commit to googlecode SVN, so if you pull straight from the google SVN latest update is available now. Otherwise will be available from Passion repo in the next few hours when Passion does it's nightly update check.

As well as the Clearart update to OSD the custom background image is now working correctly (only show custom background image if no fanart image available). Please post here if this is NOT the case.

Still more work on horizontal home menu needs to happen, so sorry still no XBox updates at this stage. Will advise when XBox build is updated.

Geeba,

Will support the old girl as long as I can. I actually think being constrained by memory usage and processor speed is helpful for reducing clutter in the skin. Trying to code the skin to run on the XBox has only make the skin better.

I'm still working towards getting v1.1.2 onto the XBox, just a little away yet.

Yep, fully agree Big Grin the memory constraint saves the usual 'code lob' that generally happens as hardware gets more powerful.

Getting close now, most of setting menu now looked after. Mainly the new horizontal home menu to pin down, still not happy with the code and the layout still needs some work.

OK, will take a look at it and see what I can do.

Not sure what you are trying to show me here sport?

BTW I think I have fixed the scrollbar issue with the visualisation setting menu but not sure. Could you please post me a screengrab / debug log of a session where you see the scrollbar problem (you first posted about this issue a couple of pages ago) so that I can make sure I am looking at the correct source file.

NB - Lipo, fixed scrollbar issue on non xbox build. Will appear on next push to Googlecode SVN

First off, thanks so much for the work you've put into this skin. I recently migrated our TV's off of ATV1's to ATV2's and didn't want to have to re-teach my wife too much (moving from ATVFiles -> XBMC). Not to mention this skin is very light on the ATV2. It has proven to work well for us and she has yet to complain about things being too confusing (which says alot) Smile So, thanks for this

One thing I really like the text output (on the left side) in "Banner" view (it shows how many unwatched episodes, name, date, etc), but I like the selection display on "List2" (on right where it lists the names of the episodes).

So, I added the function to give me # of unwatched episodes from Banner xml to List2 and thought I'd share it: http://www.pastie.org/2666963. The file to modify is skin.xtv-saf/pal/View-List2.xml. Not sure if this is the right way to do it, but it seems to work.

Thanks again for the work and I look forward to the coming updates.

Thanks,
Bubba

Your welcome. Funny enough I use the don't confuse the missus metric on anything that I do to the skin.

Looks fine to me. I'm really surprised that I have not seen more mods come thru for the skin. Watched/unwatched does not really figure in my kids minds, thus I have not really done much with this. Might have to take a look and see if I can squeeze unwatched info into the display.

Yep, still working on things, although not much getting done at the moment as the kids are on school holidays and I can't get near MY computer.

NB - Bubba, just added unwatched count to List and List2 views. Will appear next time I do a push to my Googlecode SVN
