Hi,

I just installed XBMC and was recommended Transperency skin. And must say i LOVE it Smile It's really sweet.

But an issue arised.
I'm on XBMC 11 Beta 2
Transperency skin is 3.1.1.7

Actually it's a friend, which used this skin for several month, that saw the issue. when having an movie it should be possible to press right arrow to get more options. But when doing this it goes to the slidebar and nothing more happens.
tried influence skin and worked flawlessly there.

It is not possible to update the skin to 4.0.4 (latest release ?) Update is greyed out.

Tried reinstalling XBMC, and skins and mostly everything but no luck.

PS. Keep in mind im a xbmc noob Smile

Transparency! 3.1.7 is not compatible with xbmc pre-eden,
so you need to update the skin indeed.

it should happen automatically, but in case it fails try this:
Settings > Add-ons > Get Add-ons

now, right-click on 'XBMC.org add-ons' and select 'Force refresh'.

try pushing 'left' once or twice.
that should do the trick.

oh, and in some views, you need to use 'up' instead.

Hi,

Cant seem to get this right.

Just to verify. Under movies -> *selected movie* -> pressing "->" will give me an menu where i can choose other search criterias ? Like IMDB rating and stuff ?

I cant get this menu at all.

since it works Influence, why not post a screenshot of the menu you're looking for?
