No worries mate. I can completely understand wanting to get the known bugs squashed and everything neat and tidy for a 1.0 release. I'll definitely keep track of everything I see for when you need it.
Thanks a lot for the excellent skin and all the time you've put into it!

wow, just stumbled upon this skin today. very, very well done.
small request: could you please make it possible for video plugins to show up after the first video menu item? at the moment the only way to reach them is through browse/ video plugins/addon. i think it would be nice to see the individual video plugin at the same "level" as browse.

Yes, this will be possible in the next release. This part of xbmc has been subject to many changes lately (more info). So there was a menu item for plugins, but I took it out because the part of the library it referred to was removed from xbmc (well, at least the nightly builds).
So next release there will be an add-ons entry in the submenus.

Many thanks for the skin Jeroen. Its great.
Some issues I noticed:
On the Profile login screen using the numerical keyboard you cannot see what has been pressed.
The busy dialog is very hard to see in some views and should be moved.
I get stuck sometimes and have to go forward to go back( if that makes sense)
Thanks again Jeroen, older skins do not compare.

Thanks for the feedback, the bug in the numpad totally escaped me.
I agree on the visibility of the busy dialog. I'll be keeping it it in the same place probably but take different approach to make it more visible.
Can you elaborate on the third issue a bit? It's not really clear to me what you are referring to
Thanks,
Jeroen

A couple things I'm seeing that I might change if it was me.
First:
As you can see in the below image you have some stretching going on on the corners. This IS something a lot of skins have if the images are stretched. What fixed it in xperience was images the proper size of the coding.
As you can see you have stretching on the border AND the poster diffuse. Would be really easy to make images in the proper size to fix it.

This doesn't seem to be so bad in other areas of the skin but it would be worth looking into.
Second:
An option for capital letters rather than lower case for the skins font would be awesome in my opinion.
Another thing which is probably something only really anal people care about is the aspect ratio of the posters. It seems to me your diffuse cuts some posters off a little. Only in a handful of my posters does it do this but like I said maybe it's just my picky-ness lol

I'll let you know if I see much else.

The third issue was just me not figuring about pressing the left arrow instead of back/menu. nevermind.
Another small issue, in the weather page it constantly says update in the top right hand corner above the time.

Is not a bug, it shows the last time weather was updated.

What fixed it in xperience was images the proper size of the coding.The tricky part there in files mode is that the thumbs are set to keep the aspectratio. So they are going to be stretched more in certain situations. The thumbs can be 4:3, 16:9, and everything in between. So because of that the diffuse and bordertexture are going to get stretched. In the library you can more or less know in advance what kind of thumb there's going to be in the viewtype (posters, banners, episode thumbs, landscape, potrait, etc) so you can make a diffuse and bordertexture specifically for that.
As you can see you have stretching on the border AND the poster diffuse. Would be really easy to make images in the proper size to fix it.
I don't know any coding solution for the issue in filemode, but if there is, I'll be glad to see it
The ideal solution would be if we could set border coordinates for diffuse textures but I don't think you can.

Only in a handful of my posters does it do this but like I said maybe it's just my picky-ness lolI consider myself pretty anal
So that one bugs me a bit too, but it all comes down to a compromise. I want all the posters to have the same dimensions, and because there is no real dimensions standard as far as the scrapers are concerned then some cutting is inevitable. Unless I set it to stretch, but given the choice I would rather have some cutting than distorted images. The cutting isn't cause by the diffuse in any case.Quote:I'll let you know if I see much else.Thanks

Have you considered using a border size? This way when it resizes the image, it'll keep the border the same size and only resize the interior of the image. You'd utilize it by using something like this:
Code:
<texture border="5">mytexture.png</texture>You can change out border="5" with border="[align=left], [align=right], [top], [bottom]".
