The way they're launched needs a major overhaul but that wont happen for Revisited.

Hitcher,

Ok, thank you for the information.

Well, as the items do get launched when added into submenus in Alaska I can live pretty fine with that situation.

As I am not a programmer guy I was just wondering that is there a certain reason that the launching procedure fails when adding the item as a home menu item.

I thank you once more for the information and close my mouth now on this one Smile.

Thank you for making this nice looking skin. Will stick with it. Thanks!

Hey all,

Another small bug in this skin Hitcher... When using the plugin TVCatchup and selecting a tv channel, the channel will play as expected. However when you exit out of the channel by pressing stop or back out of the channel so that it's p,acing in a window, you are unable to control xbmc.

It's impossible to scroll up or down or navigate through the menus?

This seems similar to what happens with the inability to move when using navi-x when the popup menu appears?

Any ideas on this?

It can be replicated every time by installing tv catchup 144 and then selecting any channel, then either close that channel or minimise it into a small video window. The skin will not allow you to navigate through your list/menus?

Hope you get a chance to look into it,

Cheers,
Pat~

Edit
Bug:
When listening to music and CD art is enabled and the milk drop screen saver kicks in (or you manually switch to it) the spinning CD falls outside the Album picture.

It appears that the Album picture is being squished down to perfect square when Infact in the home screen view of the Album picture is more rectangular in shape (taller than they are wide).

Hey,

One thing I've noticed is the following, don't know if this is the intended behavior or not.

Under the "Movies" home screen item, I have 2 custom sub-menu items that point to Smart Playlists, so I have Movies/English/Hindi (by pressing down on the remote when on the Movies item).

Now, for example, If I go into "English" and I navigate around (lets say I pressed Right on my remote 5 times), then if I go back to the home screen and now select "Hindi" sub menu item, it has also moved right 5 times from the last item I left it at.

Is it possible to have the selection remain independent for each smart playlist so when you navigate it one and go to the other, it has not shifted positions from where you left it last?

Thanks

Hitcher, lovin' this skin. It's become my default, coming from a longtime use of the Aeon MQ series.

About movie sets, in the Lovefilm library view, is there a way to manually add info and stars to the movie set in the Lovefilm view? It's just blank and I can't figure out how to edit this. Each of the three movies in the set are in their own individual folders with self titled .nfo files linking to their TMDb page. I'm hoping there's a way to edit the set info without having that transposed onto the info of one of the films inside the set.

Here's what I'm talking about:

I truly appreciate all of your hard work on this, looks fantastic. Happy Holidays to you and everybody else!

Hi. I'm in need of two things:

1. Button/Icon for keyboard presses of "C" and "I"
2. How can I get it to show runtime of the movie in the list?

Awesome skin by the way!! Smile

Hi!

Some fanart in movies are not showing. Under info and fanart, the fanart shows, but not when browsing movies. About 10% of the movies have this issue.

I've tried with landscape.jpg and fanart.jpg manually in the folder, but nothing happens.

I'm using the panel tall view.

Some thoughs?

Anyone having issues with Eden and tv clearlogo's not working in panel view? They work for me in logo view and they also work on other skins, but they're no longer working on Alaska (options are all checked in the settings etc.)

I downloaded this skin last night and LOVE it so far. I'm not sure why you say "for nightlies only" though. I'm using it with Beta 3 and haven't had a problem yet. Please though tell me that there is a pinkish purple hue in the lower left so I don't think my TV is screwed up lol.
