guess i've got a reason to start using the nightlies - loving the new startup animation!
noticed a couple of things with a quick play around:
slight text overlap in the title of the video playlist screen
<img src="http://i.imgur.com/UnJHH.jpg" alt="" title="Hosted by imgur.com" />

not sure if this is intentional, but on TV Show information, the pop up dialog only shows cast and browse, refresh, get thum and get fanart are missing...

Do you have this img to change it? or the psd file to addapt the + icon to this?

Thank you very much Smile
+1!

I'd prefer to keep the + but using this larger, page turning, version. That is beautiful.

If it works with nightly builds it should work with reFocus. To my knowledge there's nothing the skin needs to provide for it to work. So it´s probably best to post your issue in the script´s thread, maybe it's not compatible with nightly builds yet.

I think I still have it, if so I'll up it when I get home tonight

I'm not sure really. The latest release was a pretty big one, so the next couple of updates will probably be smaller and focused on bug fixing and finetuning. There's some issues with the PVR to be adressed, so that's going to get some more work too.
I'm also going to release a repo add-on soon to so reFocus can be updated from within XBMC.

Damn, I though I got rid of that. Cheers

Those are accessible by using the menu (press left) I chose to put the most commonly used functions in the main area, and keep the "maintenance" related functions in the left menu.

A more flat look seemed to fit with the rest of the skin more, but I still like it too. I'll give it a couple more thoughts.

Thank you very much. This version is nearly perfect (if it is not perfect yet Smile) The repo thing is a great update.

Jeroen Wrote:Do you experiences this more or less in particular viewtypes?

I of course would be willing to look into improving the load times on the ATV2, but to be honest there is not a whole lot a skin can do differently when it comes to loading fanart. It's just your typical image control.

I could try to see what delaying the fadetimes would do, but that would affect all users so I would have to find a good compromise.
I'll look into modifying some things. I can then upload the files so you can check if it makes any difference.

All viewtypes using fanart and posters are equally affected. It can sometimes take up to ten seconds for posters brought into view (say, by scrolling) to appear. As I mentioned earlier, other skins such as Quartz have no issue with this.

Thank you for looking into it. I really appreciate the way you deal with queries and suggestions.

Some great updates there, looking forward to trying it tonight, Thanks.

Any chance of adding the blue overlay for fanart to the homepage?


- Galefury - 2011-06-16

Talking about recently added sign, for those of you who liked better the old silver star sign, here's a micro mod (only 5 kB) that brings it back. Copy the star.xbt file in reFocus's media folder, then go to settings/appearance/skin/theme and choose "star." To revert to the + sign, choose "default." Enjoy.

I can confirm it's slow for me too on my ATV2 using nightlies. Was not as slow for me in version 0.8.x. It does seem like the posters are slower to load than the fanart. Tonight I will try disabling background fanart and see if that makes a difference.

ATV2 + XMBC + ReFocus - Rocks!!

Coming back on:
BigDaddyRal Wrote:2) New Movies & Episodes Indicators; The new movies and episodes listed at the bottom of the home screen used to exclude movies and episodes that are marked as watched, now the watched movies and episodes show up here.

It seems (for now at least) this is not possible. From this thread:

jmarshall Wrote:To be quite honest, no. This is a temporary solution until we have arbitrary retrieving of folders hooked up (then you can just create smartplaylists and away you go).

Can anyone recommend a relatively stable nightly build version? I know some of them are better than others and I was hoping someone had a suggestion...

As always, great great theme Jeroen!

10 seconds? Confused Wow, this has me baffled to be honest. Is Quartz on a nightly build as well?

clayfree Wrote:It does seem like the posters are slower to load than the fanart. Tonight I will try disabling background fanart and see if that makes a difference.
I'd be interested to know if it makes a difference.

I've been looking through the code and I really can't see anything out of the ordinary. If anything I expected it to be faster than in 0.8.9.6 as it's actually been simplified.

Nope, sorry

That sucks, I loved that functionality...

Oh well, quick question about the Paused OSD on videos, at present the only thing displayed when you pause a video is the silver progress bar at the bottom; any chance of displaying the info brought up by pressing 'i' when a video is paused?

Aside from being visually attractive, I enjoy being able to see all that info if I'm coming back from an extended time away. Particularly the Finish Time.

I'm having a problem with 0.9.1, I can't get browse to work in videos, forces library mode. If I switch to a different skin like neon then it's fine. Also don't see any options to add source.
