Because different TV sets look different from each other. A 54" 1080p or 720p set will display text perfectly, but a 1080i set will make it a little fuzzy. As a result, those of us with 1080i sets enjoy skins that have a "OMG that's HUGE" (that's what she said?) option. I personally think the Massive font solves the issue pretty well, but my TV might be calibrated better than some other people's.

As I've mentioned on a few occasions I can't just increase font sizes across the board as there are a number of areas where increasing font sizes would need design decisions and compromises as the text just wouldn't fit in. I need pointing towards specific areas and screenshots (or very detailed descriptions) will give me something to work from and will also help me understand where the font sizes aren't sufficient.

i'll make you screenshot of the zone where fonts needs to be bigger or style changed...thx !!

because we use 32" 16/9 (or less) and not LCD perhaps.... and that PM3 is fully ok about fonts. for me Mediastream is better than PM3 i want to keep it.. but for this i need to read correctly all text.. than not the case for the momment...

I have had MediaStream install for a while and recently tried to update to the new one. For some reason when I move the folder into my /skin folder it shows up fine in the folder but I don't see it in XBMC. I don't understand why. Is anyone out having this issue? I use the PPA install of XBMC and have SVN 15111.
