QUARTZ - support thread

You want to replace skin textures with the Apple originals?

Thx pecinko!

I'm only talking about the video player part of it (screenshot below), that's all... if I know what to do, I'd give it a shot, if it doesn't require that much of deep coding knowledge, that is...

Sorry if I post this reply in the wrong thread - I have to start somewhere...

I've finally managed to install Openelec XBMC v3.0.3 together with Quartz v4.1.2. Great package.

But I am trying to find out why my home menu in Quartz is not auto populating movies as I add them on my NAS (after I do a "update library")?

Is this skin related or XBMC related? Can anyone tell me?

The movies I add are in the movies section (after I do a "update library") and are playable.

It worked on my old installation with Openelec v2.0 and Quartz v3.3.9.

Thanks.

Auto populating shelf above Movies section? Double check you did not turn it off in skin settings. Also, check if it works on your PC (windows, os x, linux)

I believe nothing changed in this regard between 3.3.9 and 4.1.2.

When viewing TV Shows or Movies in the Icons view, scrolling through the posters vertically is really slow and laggy for me. Does anyone else experience this? I think you need to have at least 3-4 rows of titles to experience the stutter.
I've tried deleting my MyVideos#.db & Textures#.db and re-scanning all my videos again but this didn't help the problem.

Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

Working nicely here and nobody else reported any problems.

I fixed this. I changed the Vertical Blank Sync setting from 'Enabled during video playback' to 'Always enabled' and now they scroll smoothly.
Also, I found that my CPU runs at lower usage with this setting.
