First of all this is the best skin I have ever seen.. Keep up the good work.

Then I would like to make a suggestion to this non supported skin Big Grin I love this skin but I thing all the icons makes it all messy in homescreen. I use the view horizontal and have deleted all the icons in that directory to make it lock clean and simple when using backdrops. Could you add an option to hide icons from homescreen?

By the way, you should rely consider making this skin official. Maybe the XBMC developers then could add it to the official repository like they did Original Alaska.

@ hitcher just found a bug in your skin

if you have the word Web in any of the episodes it brings up the HDTV logo when you select that episode

eg.

S03E09 The Tholian Web x264 will show the HDTV logo
S03E09 The Tholian x264 will show the H264 logo

this episode is in H264 for me but the word Web is bringing up the HDTV logo, Try putting Web in any episode naming and you will see it remove sthe H264 logo and puts the HDTV logo instead.

your older alaska skin works and so does others its only the revisited that does this.

can you please fix this as i have more than 1 episode named like this and all show HDTV and there not.

cheers

That's by design to indicate it's an HDTV episode (the same will happen if you have 'hdtv' in the file name). If you don't like the HDTV flag then simply rename your files.

thanks, but i know files which are named with HDTV in the name of the file the HDTV flag will show but this flag should not show when you do not have HDTV in the file name and have (web) in the name which it does as having the word (web) in the file name also makes the HDTV flag show.

When having (web) in the name of the files can not be by design to indicate it's an HDTV ? Web is a word Should have nothing to do with te flag HDTV

I dont want to have to rename my files to remove (web) in the file name to stop the HDTV flag coming on this is a bug as other skins do not do this.

I don't have HDTV in my file name at all but I found out it was the word (web) that also makes the HDTV flag show.

So what happens if I have lots of files with the word (web) in it I will have to remove it so the flag shows right, this can not be done as this is the correct file name for that show.

Somthing in your skin is making the HDTV logo flag to come on whn u use the word (web) in the file names.

I only use the HDTV in my names when I need to but remove it when I don't want it

try it put web in any file name Without HDTV in the file name and the HDTV flag will show even if there HDTV name is not in the file name.

Like I say other skins don't do this as well as your older skin

cheers

Sorry, I didn't read the file name properly before and I can see the problem now.

It was added because lots of TV shows downloads are also web based and have WEB-DL in the name instead of HDTV.

What I'll do is change it to look for web-dl and not simply web.

Hey Hitcher,

First off, great skin.... i'm loving it

I have just one question/request.

Is it possible to have your fanart appear on the "Movies" & "TV Shows" individual windows on the homepage?

I know you can select a folder for the images to rotate through, but i wondered if it could just rotate through my fanart by default?

You may have already considered this and written it off, but i just wondered.

Thanks

Just select the fanart folder but note that XBMC doesn't separate Movies and TV Shows.
