New View request!

branlr Wrote:Okay, this is a really cool view, and while I don't use neon or aeon, I am thinking about bringing it to Cirrus Extended.

But, before I do, I will look into putting it in neon---what version of aeon was this for? Stark?

I believe it was for Auriga..

See the Thread where it is discussed linked to in my first post.

In anybody wants to make a mod for NEON with this view, I will help in any way I can, testing etc.. I have used this view for a long time, so i know it pretty well...

Especially the playing of trailers is very cool, with the trailer zooming out to the small window in the middle when you press down.

Also the IMDB look, with stars etc.. looks Nice I think..

I realise that you have a very clean and stylistic style Stoli, and I respect that, and your skin is BY FAR the best atm.. but some of us also like to have all the movie information in one view, and the scrolling of the PLOT in the middle window also is a cool feature... plus the THUMB slideshow on the left.. I've yet to come across another view in any skin that does thumb slideshow atm...

Hello oleroc, I just ported this view to Neon as requested.

@anoobie - nice work, thank you! I'll get that included in the git builds. Are the fonts you included distributable?

Thanks,

@stoli - thanks for considering adding this to your awesome skin. I'm not too sure if the fonts are distributable, but they were used in original Aeon.

@oleroc - you're welcome. glad to help.

Stoli, you mentioned you'd be adding new features to the Eden builds only, is that the case with this too?

The view is awesome!

that's what I thought... I'll use the current font when I integrate your work for consistency and to avoid any license issues.

@adytum - haven't decided yet, but it will definitely be nightlies at first.

Thanks,

Edit: I do remember that view and being impressed by it...

Agreed on the jump the shark comment. Just way to busy for my taste. I like the clean simple lines of Neon.

Anyway u can put this view in the stable version?

Maybe, but I only update the stable every couple of months. BUT... I may need to do it sooner since the tvtunes script changed and does not work now.
