[RELEASE] MediaStream_Redux (My Remake)

Jezz_X Wrote:Its odd though that linux has no issues

I've been having a lot of issues on Linux, but I thought it was just the Aeon mod I was using - they seem to be happening regardless of skin though.
Lots of issues with nfo/scraper duplicate fields and XBMC crashing out to the desktop.

well you can turn that off from running in skin settings (or just delete/rename the script)

I've been renaming it and it seems to fix it, but I like using it
Actually I'm wondering if something with my Python is just borked, some of my scripts have been crashing out too.

Jezz_X: You know we love it already, but for those that haven't tried it, I'm pretty sure that skunk + JustMeD will agree with me when I say:

This is Mediastream made usable

As for what else is needed: Only 3 things spring to mind:

1. A better view for Posters for tvshows - I think only "List" works well here atm (i.e. an infolist view). Not sure how easy that'd be - it might need new stuff added to XBMC to be easy enough?

2. Remove or merge some of the other views. I felt a couple were too similar to warrant their place in this awesome skin. You know I'm all about minimizing this stuff.

3. Get Skin settings into the settings screen, and not separate.

Cheers,
Jonathan

Ok so here is one instance when I go the videos library. I use info wrap as the view. If I hold down an arrow key it will scroll fast for a few seconds then just dies or crashes to the desktop. This is the svn21248. This does not happen with the original mediastream skin.

Log here - http://pastebin.com/m6964fa02

It seems like it died while trying to make a thumbnail for an existing entry that didnt have one. <-- This is not correct. It does the same thing even with the option to make a thumbnail is not checked.

Another Edit: This does not happen in svn21223. I cant get it to crash with this subversion.

In Media Info View, I really like the Small Fanart, but it looks weird with regular fanart.
Then when I go down to Season or Episode level, I'd like fanart in the background.

Is it possible to have fanart in seasons & episodes but not TV Shows?

Is there any way to also get the HDTV logo to be added to the sources? The bluray and hddvd ones are showng up nicely BTW. Just tell me if I am pushing my luck.

I also noticed that your button for Enable Auto Scrolling For Plot And Review (Skin Setting > General) is kinda weird. It oes away and turns grey instead of beig grey and turning blue. You will see what I mean.

Jezz, this is awesome.

I tried Mediastream and loved the look of it, but being a creature of habit, I couldn't get around fast enough in it, so I went back to PMIII.

Also, I'm an xbox user, and Mediastream was a bit slower on xbox.

This seems to solve both problems, and is a beautiful skin.

Thanks a bunch.

It does, thanks Jezz_X!
