#4 - XBMC Backup does not appear to save the Quartz Skin settings. All other XBMC configuration settings (including add-on settings, favourites, thumbs, etc) are stored correctly within the backup file, however any custom menu changes, changes to the shelf, and other Quartz-specific settings are not restored when recovering the backup. (Not a major issue for me, just a bit of a pain... I use XMBC Backup to "duplicate" my lounge ATV over to my bedroom ATV, otherwise I'd never have noticed).

Is this likely to be a tricky fix? (I'm thinking that it could be more of a hassle for others that use XMBC Backup to recover their installation in the event of an Apple Software Update/Restore).

And you are sure XBMC backup is backing up skin settings as well? Smile Anyway, this has nothing to do with a skin Smile

I figured that might be the case. I'll raise this on the XBMC Backup board.

Regarding the crash I mentioned earlier (clicking stream buttons in shelf)... After duplicating my settings onto a 2nd atv, those buttons work perfectly every time. The 1st atv still crashes 75% of the time. Looks like it might be an isolated problem after all!

Keep up the great work! This skin is excellent!!

You mean like in Glass skin?

Hehehe... Yeah, I'm jonesing for a new skin. I was on QUARTZ for so long. Recently I confess I have moved *shame on me* to a different skin, but only because I was feeling QUARTZ was getting a bit "old". With the revamp, I'm pretty sure I'll be running back to it Smile

Skins are a bit like women - Always different, always the same.

EDIT: Of course, same holds true for men, if you are a woman.

Hi,

I almost only use Watchlist now, when watching TV shows. It still bugs me that the Watchlist is unstable on ATV2. It doesn't always update to the next episode when I have watched one. I have to manually refresh the whole list too often. Also, a slightly less annoying problem is the occasional missing thumb and poster graphic for some items in the Watchlist. Any solution for this in the horizon? (I asked this a few months back too)

Another thing, is it possible to make a shortcut to the TV show folder of a selected item in the Watchlist (i.e. in the context menu)?

BT :)

Yup, I remember. Unfortunately (or thank god from where I standSmile those problems have nothing to do with a skin. Sorry Sad
