I do like the top view. One of the advantages of banner views is being able to see several shows at once and scroll through a large collection rather easily vertically. Showing 6 at a time seems like a good idea vs the 4.

Two good banner views to get ideas from are Night and Rapier. Tho Big_Noid just put a nice one into Nox.

As far as scrolling animation for a banner view, I think Xperience and Presence have the smoothest animations which match the smoothness of Aeon's Poster view, which I've always thought was the smoothest. They kinda look like their scrolling along a big wheel ala Price is Right's big wheel money wheel.

Next aired addon pulls information from TV-rage online to get currently aired shows next episode air time. Where some of the TV Guides that some skins are using are getting their information from. So, if Eureka's next episode airs next week, it'll show the date. There are a few skins that put this to good use are The Carmicheal, Nox, Night, T! etc.

One thing I'd like to also toss in as a request/suggestion. A Now Playing window for various views. One thing I love about Nox that seems to be the only Aeon version that does it. Let's you browse around while having a window of the currently playing video you're watching in view.

Sorry for the big post. Do like what you're showing though!

ZombieRobot Wrote:OK i am getting heaps done today, I was lucky to get the day off work and have been working on Showmix most of the morning i have been talking about banner views for some time but haven't had any opportunity to include any.

Here is what i have done so far what i want to know is what kind of banner view do you guys want, i have this one already coded into Showmix this morning needs some Aeon flare and is obviously the same as one of the banner views from my woody skin, i have used the code as a base but have to say i like the look, The whole thing could change very easily so that its not the same as woody but for now its what i got also needs borders,glass overlays,shadows in background and some other finishing touches.

Thoughts?? Not showmix material??

Should i scrap this view and make it look more showmix like??

any input on this would be awesome as well any of my posts above Wink

You could use a lot of my code from Shade. The views are similar. That may save you some time.

hey Zombie any chance of Anime being added as an actual menu button instead of a playlist or intergrated into tv shows?

Why not add your anime to your favorites and then create a new button with it within the favorite shortcut?

Can you use banner view with that in 3.1? And the reason I haven't before is the fact I have over 700 series 2tb worth it'd take quite awhile to do

ZombieRobot Wrote:OK now i have put this off for some time because Andy blac didn't want cases added to Showmix he thought it would slow things down too much but htpc's have gotten much more powerful in the last few years so figure its time to add them.

I need your input Showmix has always been clean and i have tried to keep it that way so if the majority of people want to keep things like cases out of showmix i will, covers will be disabled by default so i think its safe to say people wont mind if added.

I need some input on what to use below is a image of the different bluray cases if you could tell me what cover you would prefer to see in showmix

Thanks guys!
