This looks beautiful Smile

Just curious, are you developing it on an ATV2 by any chance? Would be terrific if this ran well on one Smile

I mainly test on my PC which has an i7 cpu and Radeon HD6900 card and my HTPC (intel E8200 / Nvidia 9400GT) so I have absolutely no idea how it performs on ATV2, sorry. When it's released you can always give feedback and i'll see what I can do performance wise Smile

Just found this thread, and watched the video, this looks to be head and shoulders above the other skins to date. Great work, hope it makes it to full release.

It was a small success as it looked a bit different than most skins. It was also one of the first skins to be developed for 720p and make use of fanart & colors.
More info about the old version in this thread.

Some differences compared to the old Vinci:
A consistent flow, the skin works more as a whole.
Simple navigation. No hidden dialogboxes. It will make full use of two main changing buttons per window.
1080p graphics.

Early preview at youtube The compression doesn't do the graphics justice though.

While development has stalled a bit for a few weeks, I can say almost all important features are implemented.
I still need to add the pictures and weather window. Besides that there are just some annoying bugs that need to be fixed.

Just saw the video : quite impressive. I'll try Vinci as soon as you get it finished.
