First off let me say that I am totally impressed with this skin, and it has quickly, even in beta form, become my default.

My suggestion: I use XBMC for music a LOT and would like to see some improvements in the interface of the music infopanels. Namely, I think it would be innovative and awesome of your music views more closely resembled the InfoView for tv shows.

I'm not sure what you guys had in mind going foreward, but would gladly do some mock-ups of what i was thinking if that would help in the least (and not over-step my bounds).

Thanks for all the hard work that has gone into this!

But not for the channels he said. There are flags for the common audio channels but not for 3,4,5 and 7 channels. It's rare but some files might have it, I have one file with 5 channels for example. Smile

Ok, sounds nice so far. Thees one thing I don't see in the list and that can be annoying, in the last release the debug info for scripts(right click on the script) didn't have a scrollbar but autoscrolled. That can be annoying while debugging a script. However, if thats included, just ignore my comment.
What do you think when will the update come? This week?(I know that sounds somehow like sarcasm but it isnt).

Thanks again for this wonderful skin.

no its not been done will add it though i got lost when people kept putting up the same bug over and over and over.

So any i missed please put them here and please read the thread to make sure your not double posting a bug thank you.

Release date: not sure if there is more stuff I have missed, since I am not working on the skin every day, but hopefully it will be by the end of the week, maybe sooner.
