I would also like to thank you for keeping this skin alive. I have been out of the game for a long time and I was really surprised to see the xTV section of the forum still alive. I have just started using XBMC again and since I just recently lost my family I have been thinking of dabbling again since I have alot of free time on my hands once more.

Hi love the skin looks and feels really nice thanks. Problem I have is its difficult to us the apple remote to stop currently playing media mainly music, in the new confluence vertical eden skin there is a little bar with all the relevant buttons required is there anyway for me to get that in this skin. Its not in any other skins either so I don't know if thats an easy option. Any way if someone could help me with this that would be great. I have a mac mini i7, and lion with remote buddy running.
Cheers

I recently upgraded from xbmc-20111011 to xbmc-20111017 and am now missing the ".." at the top of the "TV Shows" menu. This isn't that bad, but I can't figure out how to get to "Files" to see things that didn't get added to the Library. Anyone know? Perhaps an advanced option I'm missing?
Thanks!

Thanks for the response, its the only thing that holds me back from using this skin over the confluence skin - modded. I hear your issue over the skin flowing smoothly I thought that it could be an option that individual users could turn on or off and that the bar could just sit at the centre of either top or bottom of screen whether your in home screen, full screen view or party mode etc. Its really only for music when playing a movie you just hold the okay button an the options pop up. I too have a wife to please and a pregnant one at that. Anyway I know squat about creating my own skin and just enjoy the work of others who have more ability so thanks for everything all you guys do!
Cheers

Cheers I really love the fact that people like yourself can be assed to help me out with my problems, almost makes me feel important lol. Anyway I adjusted remote budy to activate the osd with the play button instead of play/pause/. It works but not on all screens as for your idea about pressing left to bring up a controls that sounds ideal and look forward to seeing it. Your a champ.
Cheers

Hi again I'm such and idiot I should have just played around a bit more before bugging you. The letter "M" brings up the player control menu in all skins including xTV. So I just told Remote Buddy to map the key "m" to my play/pause button on the Apple Remote and its works perfectly in all skins. I'm now a happy guy I have your skin with controls an applescript to launch eyetv successfully and the wife can't really screw it up. Its going to be a good day. Thanks again for your help and keep up the good work.
Cheers David.
