Not a huge fan of clear art I have to say, particularly not in the context of MiniMeedia as I don't really think that it would sit well with the rest of the skin.

I hope that it will be sometime in the next week or so but based on the way other things keep taking over my time at the moment I can't say for sure Frown

Once home and work life calms down a bit I'll have the chance to get back into skin coding. I had hoped that would have happened by now but am now hoping it will be in the next few days Oo

Hey skunk,

Arnova made a patch for media flags on the xbox.
Did some testing and seems to work good in PM3 HD ,but having problems with MiniMeedia. Flags show, skin works, but very high CPU, 100% constantly. (PM3 Only uses 30 %.)
With result that video files are hard to start, very hard !!

Please read this post.

Maybe if you find the time you could have a look at it.

Thanks for the heads up. I'll add it to my (very long) list. Wink

hi all.
Nice efficient skin. one of my favourites.
Just a quick question:
what i really like about minimeedia is the way it "outsources" most of the BG artworks.
Could this be extended to genres thumbs?

@Waffa: most clearArt pngs were made specifically for Auriga, where they are stuck on the right border of the screen. it makes them impractical (and sometimes downright ugly) on other skins where this positioning can not be implemented, because of ungainly "floating cuts". but it the clearArt concept could standardized so as to make sure they always work in ANY position, it could be a real boon.

Genre thumbs are already outsource.

Make a folder in named "genres" in the skins media folder and do place the thumbs in there as .png files.

I know about the clearart and can place the image were I like.Nod
Just wanted to know what other people think about it. Big Grin

bu outsourced, i meant "outside the skin".
My solution for now is simply symlinking my genre folder to skin/minimeedia/media but i was hoping for something more in the lines of weather fanart, or custom BGs
