First of all, great job! I really like this skin. It works quite good with my ATV and still looks fabulous.

I have a small suggestion by now for the home screen.
Would it be possible to make the Random/Recent Movies/Tv-Shows etc auto scroll? Would be great to configure that in the settings as well. Like setting the interval how many seconds to wait for next scroll.

The cake is a lie!

Am I correct in thinking this means support for the Movie Sets add-on? If so, need I do anything more than install the add-on itself in order to get it working?

i havent tested with the movieset add-on. only with the integrated movie set feature in eden.

give it a go and let me know!

cheers

Hey Japaja,

I did do a large poster view at one point, however dropped it and stuck with Welo's original sizing. I'll add it to the to-do list and see what it looks like.

Cheers

There were a few nightly xbmc build bugs that were showing in Welo (menu arrows not appearing correctly, and random item script error/crash). jmarshall sorted both a day or so ago, so whilst still not officially supported on nightlies, all should be fine for the time being on the most recent nightly!

Cheers

Fantastic job!! I'm using this skin now pretty much exclusivley for a while.

Feedback:

Firstly fantastic job again. Really innovative, really different, and really good looking.

1) Lack of customizability: I have cartoons/anime, and I have a separate documentaries folder, i'd love for customizability to make these home menu options
2) different colour schemes please Big Grin god + white would look amazing every once in a while...
3) full screen trailers please or an awesome animation to expand the box. that little box is too small IMO.
4) option for a bigger font/view on the home menu or atleast when scrolling / navigating lists. not everyone has a 50'' screen
5) shortcut on movies to see trailers without pressing information -> movies
6) poster view for movies - make it bigger! the way you'e done it makes them look beautiful but i can't help but feel some space has been wasted at the top.

other than that.. FANTASTIC JOB! I love the simplicity yet compexity tbh. your use of the home screen is easily the best i've seen in all honesty.

i think your video OSD is my favorite. everything very minimalistic. choice of white glow and along the bottom was very smart controls are definitley big enough,... font of the movie could be bolded or something but thats being incredibly picky.



thank you so much!

Major Props Poofy and Eskro! Check out their sigs for the best help/advice.

I have a few menu points that I would like to add to the main menu as well

I havn't looked at the XML file. Is it possible to MOD it that way?

Hey guys,

This one is on the to-do list. Didn't want to delay the initial release anymore so it got bumped!

Sit tight and it will see the light of day sooner rather than later hopefully!
