MiniMeedia Release - v0.75 (18/05/2009)

Awesome skin, I am loving it so far. Just played around with it on my test system.

I noticed the link in the first post for power images doesn't work, it just takes me to the default mediafire page, no download link.

Quick question. For multi season tv shows, what thumbnail filename is being used for season thumbs. Currently I have Season##.tbn but the skin doesn't seem to be picking that up. This seemed to work ok with other skins. I don't mind changing the filename but just need to know what it should look like.

Thanks, this is my new skin. :-)

Thanks, I have fixed the link to the power images (damn typos!).

As for the season images, the skin should just display the season thumb as provided by the skinning engine. It's the engine itself that should work out the name and scraping of that image. I don't actually have any season images on my file system but they are scraped and they seem to show up fine for me.

Anyone else have a problem seeing their season thumbs?

That's something I probably should have mentioned in the first post - the skin was designed primarily for 720p and will probably look pretty naff in 4x3. I'm not planning on doing any 4x3 support at the moment (I don't really have the time) but it may happen at some point in the future.

As for the xbox, I've been running this skin on my xbox at home since January (80 percent of the skin has been written for about 4 or 5 months now) and haven't really had any issues.

I've tried to space the skin away from the edges of the screen but I guess I haven't left enough for all screens. I think I left about 10 to 20 pixels at the edges of the screen.

The weather and system backgrounds show up for me as soon as I move to the items in the menu? Strange



Me too

I'm using a 82cm 16:9 PAL TV. It all looks very nice, except for the text not always fitting on the screen. I understand I'm probably a minority in using a old SD television. So no harm done if this is something that you won't change. I'd completely understand. I thought you'd still like to know

No probs, post any screenshots of screens or views which are cut off and I'll see what I can do.

Hi.

First of all.....thanks skunkm0nkee , amazing skin.

Im testing it on my htpc , but i see a problem on Configure settings for Home.
When i select "Disable Weather" , automatically its select also "Disable System Menu" , and if i disable weather on home it disable the two things , weather and system menu bottom.

Can u check it please? i want remove the damn it Weather bottom , i hate this option

And its possible Disable Videos botton on home and add Filemanager? its a good idea for when anyone want watch somthing in a pendrive usb for example.

Oh , and another thing , add a option on on/off menu for close xbmc please , sometine i need only close xbmc , and not off the computer.

Yeah , i know , my english sucks , sorry for it

Doh! Thanks for spotting that. I've fixed it for the next version and for those that want to have the fix now then you need to change lines 307 - 208 in 720p/Custom1001_SkinSettings.xml to be the following:

You can already disable videos but if you want to add File Manager as a root item them you'll need to mod it yourself for that. (For me it's a media centre skin so functionality like File Manager should be hidden further down)

There's a shutdown option already and what it does is based on how you've setup XBMC. It gets too confusing to add too many Shutdown PC/Hibernate/Shutdown XBMC options so I've to keep it plain and simple.

Ok , thanks m8!

One last question , im newbie on this of mediacenters , maybe xbmc have any option to add or to see pendrives on home menu?

Im waiting for a "final" release for translate to my language all the skin

oh , and anyone have a HD backgrounds for pictures , music , tv shows and movies? all my backgrounds looks crappy on the lcd.

Thanks for all you work/support mate.

Try going into Videos and see if you can see it there? If not you'll have to add a source for it.

I'll be uploading some backgrounds for movies, tv shows, pictures and music sometime soon but I can't do it at the moment as it'll blast my mobile broadband limit (have to wait until I'm at home)

I won't swear to i have never been wrong about a skin before this is far far better than i ever thought possible and i have only tried it on the pc. how on earth did you manage to make so darn small. this has to be your best work ever and did not think it would be out quite quite so soon. will of course let ya know if there are any issues if any. let this skin be an inspiration to all other skinners who mange to produce over bloated skins. WoW indeed

This one wont need a lite version from you paul
