Bellow you will find 2 download links, one for official 0.9.5 reFocus and one for latest GIT version. Please, check first what version you use.
For movies it will show movie cover, for tv shows will display the network. I guess it can work even for episodes, replacing cover/network flag with episode's image. If Jeroen likes this, I'm sure he will make a better job then me.

blue_Gallery_0.9.5

blue_Gallery_latest_GIT

Galefury, can you please repost the latest GIT file?, it does not work,
blue_Gallery_latest_GIT

Thanks!

I've updated the original post with new links. Now, as suggested by PatrickBateman, the tv shows display covers in the left and network logo in the right. I hope everything is alright now.

Thanks!

Will grab and test right now

Thanks aagin,
Really appreciate this mod!

Also, while you're doing this, maybe you can do one other. Can you make it such that the chapter information will appear if I were to switch chapters?
Someone told me that'd just make it show as each chapter plays, but what I want is for it to show when you _switch_ chapters, not to show which chapter you're on as it reaches each point.

Well, I don't know if it's possible. My coding skill are limited, I usually copy/paste the code and do some minor adjustments.
As for the rest of modifications, they are intended as suggestions for Jeroen. The Gallery view need some more working, I see what I can do.

Silly me, it already works the way I want.

For movies is pretty simple to add the cover instead of network logo, but for tv shows I don't think is possible. I actually made this for me a while back, but eventually reverted to the original because the cover was distracting as I use OSD info to check the progress/finish time mostly.

I see,
Do you have a file available, I'd love to test this to see how it looks in comparison. I find the gap on the left of the movie description (when viewing info while movie is playing) to be distracting as it seems as if something has been left out or is missing.

I'd like to see the new view you've created, ported over to the OSD view so they look Identicle.

I've tested the other file and so far it looks perfect. The only minor (OCD) issue I could find was that when in TV Show gallery view, the network logo (above the rating) sometimes jump around a bit and are not quite central, some also merge or overlap with the stars on occasion.

It's a very minor (non issue)however it is noticeable with the comedy central and Channel 4 logos. Again, it's a non issue really but thought I'd mention it just in case it can easily be sorted either by a quick edit or a relocation

What a fantastic mod so far,
Truly appreciated!

Ok, updated the download links again. I made the network logos a little smaller, I hope they don't overlap now.

On it

Edit:

Great stuff.
The logos are a much better fit now, with no overlapping that I can see and they look great. The overall look of this edit is very clean and elegant. I can't see any further bugs/issues with it. I think it's great!

I for one am very appreciative of this edit. I hope you continue with more.

One thing I did notice (not bug related) some of my TV series have no logos (the killing for example) and i notcied the screen actually looks quite nice and clean without them, I wonder if a switch could possibly be added or perhaps 2 versions of this edit? One which displays the logos and one without? (or coud you post the edits I'd need to make and I'll make them and can then test/view both variations)

Obviously this will affect the resolution (480p etc) being displayed on the movie display screen, but again, I think there is a nice minimalist look when these are removed, then again they are very useful when enabled...

Overall, This is a fantastic edit and it should definetetly be considered into the main skin as its a fantastic mod and offers a cracking viewing expereice for those who dislike bright contrasty text!

Here's hoping you'll consider cloning this mod over to the OSD too

Thanks again
Pat~

One stupid question... how can I download the nightly version of reFocus?

Thanks dudes
