It works with the other skins.

jalesm Wrote:I just want to add I have the same problem, but only when I use list view. The icon views view are very responsive, which is really weird since it seems like it should be other way around.

I am pretty sure I have found the cause for the bad performance in list view. Expect a fix sometime next week.

MrTourettes Wrote:Hi just read through the whole thread and have a question that was not asked ( I do not think anyway ).

In my music section I use Icon display. What I have noticed is that the main display image overlays the library images. Is there anyway to have the screen seperated so you have all the library images on one side and the actual selected image on the other. I have posted 2 screen shots showing roughly what I mean.

Hope these explain what I mean.

Also From what I have read there is currently no fanart on the main menu screen that is correct isnt it?

Actually the big selected image is not meant to be there at all, it should just display the icons. I will fix that as well. Thanks for adressing it

I actually like that big image there is there any chance of having it stay?

Hi, sorry for the delay I haven´t got around to completing it. I hope to do that this week but I´ll just say ASAP

I´m not planning to no, sorry

Unsure if this has been mentioned in this thread so sorry if it has.

Have you considered adding the movie details on the movie browsing screens? When I say movie details I mean images for 720p 1080p DTS, etc etc.

I have thought about it and I would like to, but most probably not as long as there's no official support for it in XBMC. Meaning not by adding stuff to filenames in order to make it work.

kautious Wrote:Hey Jeroen!! Thanks for the Update!! Love this skin!!
Im just having this small problem when I'm browsing my library and looking at a movie or tv show plot/info screen it goes back to the beginning of my video list, it wont stay on the selected file. Or if I'm watching a TV Season and Im on Ep 5 after the show is over it will go back to Ep1. Thats it! Other than that I think this skin is perfect!!!

is there a solution to this problem already?
didnt figure it out on my own.

please anybody
thanks alot

Sorry Still no solution to this problem.
I still think this skin is great!! I just hope it's fixed in the next update.

Jeroen,

Any updates on a possible new release?

For the rest, great skin!

I'm afraid not
I feel really bad for not releasing an update for a long time, so I won't make any promises that I'm not sure I can keep. Because of a new job and other real world stuff I don't have as much time available to work on Focus as I would like to.
I'm also kind of shifting my available time across two projects, one being Focus and one being a new skin. Contrary to said earlier the new skin will probably be released under the Focus name. Partly because I just like the name and partly because the design principles have remained the same. It will look different but the general concept and viewtypes will be reminiscent of Focus.
It will be released seperately, probably just Focus 2. So it will not be meant as a successor to Focus, I would like to keep the original Focus under development. How realistic that is to do on my own however will remain to be seen.
So again sorry for my absence as of late, I plan to make it up to you in the future
