I may need some help with this one. If anyone knows a UTF 8 font which is similar to the one I've used and is open source please let me know.

Love the skin so far, runs nice and smooth.
I just noticed that there's no "exit" option under the shut down menu. Is there any possibility of adding this in the future? One of my machines runs windows and only runs XBMC when the missus is upstairs watching something. I can only imagine her not being able to exit without rebooting.

There is a pretty good list of unicode fonts in here,
http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid=119404

It would be nice for us Asian users if the skin would be able to display unicode characters.
Maybe adding an option to choose Arial fonts could be an initial approach.
The skin would not be as nice as it is, but at least, we would be able to get our media properly displayed.

@pseudo7 : Not as beautiful though, look at the 'c', 't' and 's' for example.

Look at Museo Sans : http://www.fontsquirrel.com/fonts/Museo-Sans or QuickSand : http://www.fontsquirrel.com/fonts/Quicksand
Be sure to look at Quicksand Book, as Quicksand is too thin.

@tree_jammer: I've got a question regarding the home menu. Are there any scripts running while I scroll through the items? I have the feeling, that a lot of data is loaded everytime for e.g. new movies/episodes

@tree_jammer - I know it's a alpha release and you know about the most obvious bugs, but here are some things I noticed from sections that already look pretty finished. That's why I decided to report them:

season panel
I think it would be better to display the season posters in a continous strip instead of a 5col grid, so that you can browse all seasons from left to right and don't have to also scroll up/down (one doesn't expect this seeing only one line of posters).

movie panel, music panel
browsing the poster feels a bit awkward, having to navigate left/right and up and down. Would be cool if there would be a automated "line jump" once you reach the outermost poster of a line. So that when you continously press left/right you automatically browse the posters line by line. But I think this might be a limitation in the skinning engine and would probably lead to other navigational oddities (like how to get tot he left menu again)?

grids (home screen, genres)
On the home screen you use some grids, f.e. for the recent movies or the settings. There are some visual glitches with those:
  • dummy shapes disappear suddenly when they are in the last line and you scroll up (so that they move down). They already disapper before the grid moved them out of focus.
  • it's a bit odd in the settings grid that when you scroll down to the third line (while 2 are displayed at a time), that the grid scrolls up to the third row even if it's the last one. This leads to a empty row at the bottom which looks odd. So scrolling the rows should stop once there are no more rows "hidden"

Info panel
To simplify the UI a bit, I think you can remove the buttons for "refresh", "get thumb" and "get fanart" from the info panel view and "hide" them behind a "edit" button. Gui should only show frequently used options and "hide" the advanced features from average joe. But that's just my personal taste - feel free to ignore it Smile

Open up the DialogButtonMenu.xml in notepad++. Then look for

Quote:<control type="button" id="3115">
<description>Shutdown</description>
<width>320</width>
<label>13005</label>
<onclick>ShutDown()</onclick>
<align>right</align>
<textcolor>black</textcolor>
<focusedcolor>white</focusedcolor>
</control>

Change the
Quote:<onclick>ShutDown()</onclick>
to
Quote:<onclick>XBMC.Quit()</onclick>
and then save. Reload the skin and the shutdown button will now only exit out of xbmc instead of shutting down windows.

Hope that helps

Hey Tree,

Just as a heads up the login.xml doesn't work, so you are stuck at a blank screen with no means to log in or change the skin to be able to log in.

I had to replace the login.xml another skin to get xbmc to be functional.
