I havent been browsing these forms for quite sometime when there was talk of no future builds on the XBOX so I thought I would inquire as this was definitely the skin I was looking to test out and use on a permanent basis.
Congrats to Hitcher and everyone else that helped to make this skin a reality!
I am using it on my XBOX, it works with some limitations...
The main menu will miss some icons with alska style 1 (is style the right word?) due to lack of memory, but style 3 (no main menu icons) works fine. Might be able to reduce the size of the pictures to solve this?
For movies, the poster style views use too much memory to then launch the video, the only view I can use is the FILES view. (Such a shame!).
For TV shows I think I am using the episodes view, which is fine.
Music works in any view very nicely. (Love the music views and the OSD!)
Pictures seem very slow, I can't figure that out (have 15-17mb memory free on the picture screens)
With the last version of the skin I could use the red and blue colour schemes (see colour thread), but not with this version. They load fine, everything looks good, and with debug mode on the free memory is only slightly lower than with no colour scheme, music is fine, BUT when I try and launch any video from any view the system freezes, not sure why. I am hoping I or someone else can solve this, as the skin looks much better with colour.
So, a few things not quite working but the skin is so nice/functional/breazy I am going to stick with it. Hopefully a version will be modded to work 100% with the XBOX in the future.
Oh, this is all with the latest T3CH build for the XBOX (dated 18 Jan I think).
