Haha yeah I was changing some of them but it gets annoying, a good few of the movies don't have alternate taglines either, will have to get it fixed, stay tuned. Tongue


*Edit:

Ok figured it out, this seems better to me:

This should do nicely, but I'll be looking for a way to make it better.. to keep the original font size without it being clipped, but I'm starting to like it this way.

Fix:

Replace your Font.xml in Aeon's 720p folder with this, download archive on 1st page updated also.

In the meantime a workaround I have is to open your media manager like MIP or Ember Media Manager and edit the tagline for the movie to make it sorter. On IMdb they have alternate taglines for all the movies if you select "More.."

For example:

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0289879/taglines

it could be the <posy> of the plot control you have to lower it.
or edit the font size,

Yeah I changed the font size for now which I'm starting to like, I'll try changing the position for the plot control later though thanks Wink

Ok thanks, I might do one thats a combination of both, or set one as default but put the other one in the .rar for anyone that wants it.

About the thumbs slideshow for the plot view, yeah I'm going to take a look at the code because that annoys me too, it is a waste of nice thumbs !
