Hitcher Wrote:That was the only thing I could think of because the actual font is lowercase in in the XBMC folder. However, Confluence lists it with a capital 'A' and you say that works so I'm still confused.

I think i know whats the problem. I deleted /use/share/xbmc/media/fonts/arial.ttf and replaced with Calibri. but later i add Arial.ttf. Maybe thats why it worked. Or u think not?

I am glad it worked Big Grin

Sounds likely.

noticed an issue recently that i believe is due to alaska. I have PsuedoTV as a custom home item. I can launch into it and exit fine, however when it exits it gets stuck on the icon and i can move. Also the label "PsudeoTV" is gone and it says "Fair" (basically like if you press down on the weather icon). i can press any direction, back, ok, esc, x, stop, everything but it stays stuck. Only way i could get it working again was by force closing xbmc. It has happened every time i have used this script and custom home item

Livin Wrote:Hitcher,
While finishing my theme I found a few more inconsistencies with Button Focus images in Pictures and Settings (I may have missed others too). Looks like they are not using listfocus.png - can you change all the XMLs for consistency, to use listfocus.png?

Hitcher Wrote:You'll have to be more specific.

It is the highlight bar used for the list menus. In Settings it is the gray bar you use. You are using multiple PNGs as markers/highlights (aka Button Focus) for your list style menus. You changed this in InfoList a while back to be the same as on the home screen... but there are other XMLs still using the other PNGs -- but they are all essentially the same exact things.

download from here (version 2.7.6 for dharma 10.1 if I remember correctly) and sftp into the box and place it in addon folder or just copy it in if you're on windows.

If you are using a nightly as of 18/4 or later, you can just grab newest version from here .

Hope that helps.

Hey hey, it's been a while. Smile

I just got an SSD, and tried to load up one of the newest nightly builds, and received a "Dependencies Not Met" when trying to load up your repository... Is this what you're talking about (as above) and if so, is there a way around it? I've tried installing nightlies from tonight, May 7 and May 1.

Ideas? (Thanks!)

EDIT: AHA! I just tried Dharma 10.1, and it worked swimmingly. Awesome, thanks!


OSX April 19th nightly build - mungki - 2011-05-24

Has anybody got a copy of OSX April 19th nightly build They could share?

cheeky question to ask, been a long-time user of the Alaska skin and couldn't really bear to use anything else, but I'm trying to get the pseudotv script to run and keep Alaska happy but I tend to just copy one nightly build over another, any help would be greatly appreciated!

I have a quick question if someone doesn't mind answering.

I love the way in which in the settings menu the icons are displayed as such...

Would it be possible to create a home menu with the same style of icons gridded and embedded looking into the background?

Edit: Amidst the themes the icons needed are already present, I just would love it to be organized in a grid like fashion as done in the settings menu on the home screen

Hello Hitcher,

looks like i found problem with Plot fadelabel in DialogFullScreenInfo, it doesn't like [cr]'s inside Plot info. When it contains one or more [cr]'s it creates multi-line fadelabel (at least i think Smile) and results are as on following pictures

Additionally scrolling is far from fluent.

Do you have idea how to force label/fadelabel to ignore [cr]'s and make whole Plot into single line?

Ok, so I installed the newest nightly XBMC, and had the existing skin of Alaska Revisited loaded fine... ...but now, when I go to my "Videos" link, it shows "Movies", but it's not letting me do anything when I press the "C" button. Instead of allowing me to configure the different subdirectories, as it used to, I get options like "Play" and "Add to Favourites". Something new I'm missing?

Where can I add my Movies, TV Shows and stuff?

[Nitpicking]
If you navigate to "Music / Music Videos / Artists" the Artists are listed as "<artist name> - <artist name>"

[Nitpicking]
When browsing Music by Artist in Panel Square, the biography use a lot less vertical height than when browsing by Album when music isn't playing.

[Panel Square Readability]
It would be nice if Panel Square had a semi-transparent dark square behind the album review / artist biography to increase readability with certain fanart backgrounds.

[Nitpicking]
After finishing watching a TV episode, the view isn't updated to take into account that the episodes watched status has changed. I'm using the Landscape view and Watched is set to Hidden.

I am using 2.7.6 on 10.1 (ubuntu minimal). I am having an issue with a custom playlist on the home screen. When I set it up as a custom icon pointing to the playlist, it fails and returns me to the generic videos window.

When I navigate to the playlist normally, it displays properly.

UPDATE: Lingering zip files from old nightly installation seemed to be overwriting the 2.7.6 installation. Went back to a copy of 2.7.6 and made my own mod to add in the home icons I needed.
