sufreak Wrote:Any thoughts on officially adding the banner view? Its really the only thing keeping me from using Night. I love it, the features, the look. Just can't look at a minimal amount of tv shows in one shot.

Otherwise, I'm stuck with Confluence. Which is also nice...

KidKiwi Wrote:I thought there was a banner view. I was using it before I switched to landscape view. Don't you have to turn it on in the skin section?

KidKiwi Wrote:One last thing - should there be a blue line under the logo in the TV landscape view. I noticed on Passion-xbmc their pic of the skin has one and I'm sure I saw mention of this somewhere among the threads. Am I missing something (I'm using 1.4.6). (I like the blue line - feels like the logo needs one to bring it to focus).

KidKiwi Wrote:Understandable.

I asked because I have a really large library - and showcase view (my favourite) just doesn't offer enough covers when browsing for a movie to watch. My problem further stems from being particularly susceptible to motion sickness - and when flying through showcase view (and others) I start feeling ill - especially with the focused cover flying in and out. And...using the scrollbar to deliver one page at a time cuts off the cover on each end of the screen - so I never get to see those covers while using the SBar.

I've come from PM3 - using the DVD ICons view (two panes of covers putting ten on the screen at the same time. PM3-HD puts 12 I think on the screen. I'd like a similar view putting two panes right across the screen - about 14 or 16 at a time. Allows you to browse a lot at one time.

Funny thing is, I've found myself switching back to PM3-HD to make a selection, then back to Night to watch it. Not sure I have the required skills to make it happen on my own.

PS - Just started work on my TV section and setting it up using Landscape with logos and fanart etc. Looks fantastic - like having a brand new system all over again.

gcash513 Wrote:In the showcase view, I fixed the problem you described by changing a couple of tags in Viewtype_Showcase.xml.

Look for <control type="wraplist" id="58"> in the file (line 49 in the latest published version).
Change the value <posx>-135</posx> to <posx>31</posx>
Change the value <width>1480</width> to <width>1218</width>
Change the value <focusposition>4</focusposition> to <focusposition>3</focusposition>

Does Night support Fanart in the programs section? (http://forum.xbmc.org/showpost.php?p=618617&postcount=787)

Didn't want to have to disassemble Night if the support was already there, just trying to make my programs section match the above concepts
