Just started using Amber with Frodo 12.3 on my win 7 64 bit computer. I'm having a few problems with this:
1) I'm using vertical main menu on home screen. I find that the the scrolling with the mouse between the menus is too fast and takes a lot of effort to click on the desired menu which is very inconvenient. Is there any way to slow it down?
2) I've added a few channels on the main menu so that they can be accessed right away and also added their logos in the background using settings/backgrounds. But none of these backgrounds automatically adjust to the screen resolution. If the background resolution is bigger than the screen, then part of it is clipped. But if the resolution is lower then the background is stretched to the full resolution. I was using Ace skin before Amber & didn't have any such problems.
Thanks!

Hi,
I've got a problem with Amber on Frodo 12.3 running on a Macbook Air. For some reason when the library updates on startup the new movie posters don't show up on the shelf for (recent items). Anyone know why this might be?

This is what I currently have. The problem is that before, instead of numbers, there were round icon indicating the seasons 'seen or unseen' which was much more convenient.
I still have version 1.3.2 patched to redisplay the scrollbar and I do not know if it is a non-editable aesthetic choice or if there is an option to show them again.

I did not need to know how many episodes I still have to see, just that I have not seen everything yet and I find the little icon more aesthetics. It would be nice if we can choose the appearance of the indicator (figure or icon) in preference of skin ...

I prefer the numbers. It communicates two things instead of one, ergo is the better UX in my opinion

Great skin, thanks for all your hard work Pecinko. I was setting up a second profile the other day and noticed that all of the artwork on the shelf items (i.e. recommended, random, recent) was being duplicated in the second profile. So all the movies I have on the main profile basically garble up the second profile. I only have 3 movies in the second profile, so only those three should appear. I did setup the profile to copy settings from default, but start fresh for sources, not sure if that helps. Is this expected behavior?

After switching profiles choose reload skin from the sub menu below settings - does that fix it temporarily ?

Hi there
I love this skin am I do apologise if this had been discussed I couldn't see it although I didn't read all 60 odd pages ha ha the view types. I was wondering how to set them permanently for movies and TV shows I like fan art and general menu I use icon I don't mind just having fanart all around but is there a way to make it stay on the setting without having to change it every menu that would be great. Any help would be appreciated.
Regards
