You're using banners instead of posters.

Just a quick thing I have noticed...

Star Rating
Looking at the image it makes you think this film only has a 1 star rating when infact it has a 4 star rating... Should it not be that the stars light white with the ratings rather than black and it being backwards? Look at Avatar in your image for instance too, should that not be 5 white stars?

Also is there just currently the one view, with that being the list view? If not how to I choose other views as per screenshots I have seen in the other thread?

^^ Scrap this I have seen how to get to the options now... Press left then press up for those who wondered how too!

Great work, love it. My new default skin. Here's some feedback:

[Home Screen Navigation Unintuitiveness]
You press "Down" to get to the "Latest <whatever>", and then you press "Down" again to return to the main menu. This feel unintuitive, my instinct was to press "Up" to return to the menu since it's located above the "Latest".

[Consistency]
In the skin settings, I suggest changing "Hide Programs" to "Hide Apps" so it matches what it's called on the Home Screen.

[Shutdown Menu]
Not mentioned in the missing features section of the first post but the Shutdown Menu (Is that what it's called?) is missing.

[Missing Setting]
A "Hide Settings" option in the settings (I don't trust anyone but myself to mess with the settings). This of course require the Shutdown menu to be implemented on the Home Screen first and have the Settings option available there.

[Star Rating]
I agree with DazNoonan above that the Star Ratings looks inverted.

[Scrolling Text]
In the Movie Details in the bottom right corner, the scrolling text doesn't stop when it reach the end of the text, it starts over immediatly. I suggest it stops for a brief period of time before starting over.

[On-screen Keyboard]
The On-screen Keyboard doesn't have a background when editing movie titles, making it very hard to see.

[Videos Section]
The Videos section is either not implemented yet (not mentioned in the missing features section of the first post) or not working.

[Missing Arrows]
In the "Latest <Whatever>" part of the Home Screen there are >> arrows indicating there are more titles if you scroll to the right. There are however no << arrows.

Not needed.

DazNoonan Wrote:TV Show Order
Not sure if you are aware but episodes are ordered A-Z instead of by the episode number, below is an example for Episode 8 of NCIS: Los Angeles

That's nothing to do with the skin, you've changed it to sort by Name instead of Episode.

Realised that straight after I posted, so removed my post... Sorry for the error.
