Nice version, everything looks fine. There is now just the fanart in the now playing view that is missing.

Version 4.3 is reaching the perfection, but there is still the notification window size issue, here is an example:

http://lh3.ggpht.com/_lYSvGaBCYdI/TOK3912VkvI/AAAAAAAAB5g/4ZIoALM1nkM/xbmc.png

You can reproduce the problem easily with this command:

xbmc-send --action "Notification(testing, testing12asdfasdfasdfasdfasdfasdf)"

The command is in this package: xbmc-eventclients-xbmc-send (if you are using linux)

The problem is trying to find the dialog.

FIXED - I have added an option when you are in a music list. Option is to show fanart when music playing.

Could you try this for me and see if it makes the box wider:

open the file includes_Dialogs.xml

and change this code:

Code:
<control type="image">
   <width>230</width>
   <height>70</height>
   <texture border="0">dialog-background4.png</texture>
</control>

to

Code:
<control type="image">
   <width>400</width>
   <height>70</height>
   <texture border="0">dialog-background4.png</texture>
</control>

Qualar,

Don't you think it is about time you let us update via svn or git? Kind of boring to download the whole thing for each version?

Thanks for the motivational comment.

Is anyone else having issues with this skin being VERY slow compared to earlier versions? Even the latest version I modded myself to work with Dharma, obviously missing things like addons, was a hell of a lot faster than this one.

I would imagine you are using a low powered machine such as a Revo. If so this skin may not be for you. This has lots of viewtypes and features so will use more resources than the original Rapier.

Also could you state what parts are slow for you (loading, animations, general usage)

However, it can be optimised for your setup by removing features and reducing the resolution of images. If you would like to volunteer to do this and optimise the code let me know.

Great!, notifications has now the correct width, thank you!
