[RELEASE] Fusion Migma v2

This is my favourite skin. One thing that I would love to have is the postergrid view for TV shows (like the one for movies), this is basically the only thing that bugs me about the skin.

I went as far as completely deleting the skin folder. Clearing all Fusion entries in the Guisettings.xml file and reinstalling from scratch. Even with everything at default it's still doing it.

Tried downgrading to XBMC RC1, but that work either. Being I seem to be the only one having this, based on no other posts about low fps on the home screen. I'm not sure what else to do here. I have about 10 other skins installed, can't seem to replicate this on any of them.

Here's a screenshot showing the system info just to show what it does.

Different topic, but I just wanted to use the screenshot you provided. On my system the "storage space info" section just shows "unavailable" for everything. I am running xbmc in Linux, might that be the problem? Here is what mine looks like:

I can drop your wish on the request list, shouldn't be a big deal.
Concerning your screenshot, what happens if you go to system info by pressing settings? Or maybe switching to another skin and see if there's any info?

Thanks!

Here is a screenshot of what the storage screen looks like in the system info menu:

butcha, I know you are planning to add PVR in the future, what about animated backgrounds?
I am really a fan of that feature.

Yeah, PVR will be added once it will be a part of xbmc. Animated Backgrounds already mentioned that i won't add this feature, sorry.

ooops, I missed that, it's okay

Hey Butchabay, thanks for the latest update. The artist logos on the now playing screen look great!

Quick question:

Have you, or anybody else noticed that while scrolling through the movies section, it sometimes stalls or gets stuck on a movie before it gets to the next? It basically freezes XBMC for 3 - 4 seconds before I can navigate again.

It's happened ever since I started using Fusion.

I have XBMC installed on an SSD drive with an i5 processor, so I don't think my computer is too slow.

Any thoughts or suggestions?

Thanks, John

Where is your media stored? External HD or Network? I have the same problem but not only with fusion, i may think the hdd goes idle and when awaking you feel you get stuck a few seconds until it goes forward. Something you can try is to disable option to fetch metadata or everything that's stored external, artworks, extrafanart, extrathumbs, logos etc. Just try to disable everything, even fanart if it's stored locally.
You're using Ember Media Manager for scraping?
Really don't think it's a skin issue, you may try other skins supporting all the actual artwork and see if it happens too.
As said, i could reproduce it on every actual skin supporting all the extras, that may cause slowdowns by browsing.

Hey Butcha, thanks for taking the time to respond back.

All my media is stored locally on four 2TB internal hard drives, with all the scraping done by Ember Media Manager. Before I used Fusion, I was using MQ3. I never noticed it to get stuck while browsing, (Used it for about four months before switching to Fusion). I do, however, remember the same thing happening back when I used Cirrus Extended V2 though. Those are the only skins I've really used long enough to notice if it does it or not.

Just wanted to see if it was something I was doing wrong, or if anyone else experienced it too.

When I re scrape my library, I will make sure all the options to fetch artwork is disabled. If I notice it fixes the problem, I'll PM you and let you know.
