Installed xbmc eden beta, saw the metropolis skin on add-ons, wow, this skin is freaking awesome, i have tried them all and this is my fav.

Noticed the weather temp is missing on the homepage until i go into weather, then when i come back to homepage, weather temp is there until i restart xbmc and then the same thing happens.

Also noticed that even though I have 800 music albums which metropolis reports correctly when I am in the music albums page, back at the home page via totals it reports only 742 albums, whats with that?

Bunch of Metropolis Screenies I took : http://home.xnet.com/~tclark/XBMC%20Metroplis%20Skin/

I too noticed that the weather doesn't auto update..
Also still not sure how to enable shuffle for music
Best skin available though, this makes XBMC even better

Weather should be fixed.

There are still quite a few dialogs and views to be updated/fixed/created. Keep in mind it's still alpha and not an official release yet.

Is the apple trailers section behaving a bit odd for anyone else? The first time I select trailers the posters of the trailers load but I can't navigate to select anything. I have to go back to the home screen and select trailers a 2nd time, this time navigation works as expected.

The cdart animation is out of focus with respect to Album art in Music OSD. Also, in the library, the cdart is not round, rotates uneven.

Yep, Does that to me as well, haven't said anything though as this is still pre official release, isn't it an awsome skin though.. Big Grin

What is you screen resolution and dimensions?

I have noticed that when disabling Home Screen items (in the Home Screen Icon layout) ..like Photos AddOns a etc that the scrolling becomes a bit wonky..navigation slows down and the icons when you scroll to the left and go past the Shutdown icon ...the icons no longer magnify..however when you scroll back to the rigt and go past the Shutdown icon.. they start magnifying again...bizarre. However if you dont disable any the scrolling is fine.
