KML2 Browser

isn't it the same images that always are used for the script? if so why not include them, with problems corrected, in the distro of the script? thus also giving the possibility for users/skinners to modify the looks. this until someone fixes issues with gif interpretation in xbmc? the thing with skins is that the designer has full control of the gfx so he/she can adapt to the small flaws.
secondly i'd say those downloaded gifs are pretty badly done. the person who created them either have a limited system where theyre to be displayed or don't have good knowledge of how to creat well optimized gif images.

it is all ripped from the k|i|s|s player. kml is developed by them. as i said, they will soon release a new version (that they announced at cebit 2004.) much better documented too.

i will soon update these images and add them as an update.

wow.
amazing.
i will add a webradio-button to my music.

you can use all graphics of my hifi skin, if you want.
perhaps the best way would be the default buttons.
this will be automatically changed by each skin.

must say that i am impressed with this!

very nice indeed!

i have a small suggestion/request for this though:

* record option (record button) from "within" the script so exiting it and moving to my music wouldn´t be needed.

again, very nice job!

keep it up

awesome is all i can say. a great big thumbs up to zilvershadow.

it works great when using the mediacenter skin.

i do hope you can find the issue preventing it from working in the other skins as well.

one other minor issue is that the text at the bottom always says "connecting ..." even after the stream has started playing.

at the moment i've little time to work on the project, but keep on coming with your suggestions, bugs, etc.

i tested the script with some skins now (blueblack, mediacenter, project mayham, visor) and they all seem to work with the skin so i think it's something else. the people that have this problem could tell me what skin they use and what build they have.

i'm working on this and some other things like showing the mp3 title/description and other things mentioned.


one thing i want to clear up that is that this project isn't just an webradio player, you must see it in a wider perspective. kml is a markup language. many people have designed pages for it, including imdb, tvguide, weather and games, and more, like streaming video. what i'm writing is a browser that can browse these pages and draws them correctly to screen.

thanks

i haven't been able to test this myself yet but is maybe possible that the text problem is based on missing fonts in the skin? tho i actually doubt it myself. i can't get it to work with retro and i'm using a build from the 21st and the script from 23d.
and i must say it really is an awesome script now that i've been able to run it from mediacenter skin.

what a kickass script! nice work.

my only complaint, well other than it not working on other skins, is that it does not seem to properly scale for ntsc. for me, the bottom is cutoff. would it be possible to set the boundaries smaller than the the maximum for the resolution?

that way we can try to accomodate everybody's overscan. for me, if i set the ui calibration to 0,0, i can barely see the bottom menu (red bar).

i normally have my ui calibration at -5, and even then the bottom bar is cutoff.

any chance you can take overscan into consideration?

thanks,

ps: amazing work!

so, i got the script to work with pm.

it is based on the fonts.

for example, in the script we have:

def getfont(font):
if (font == 1):
#print "font24"
return "font24"
else:
#print "font12"
return "font16"


but, pm does not have either font24 or font16. i switched it such that i now have:

def getfont(font):
if (font == 1):
#print "font24"
return "font24"
else:
#print "font12"
return "font14"

and it works with pm skin.

would better to make that fix so that the script looks for a font within a range. fex small font = 12-18 big font 19-32, or something. i'm no coder so i wouldnt know how to do this or how hard it would be to do. but my guess is it would cover more skins
