Another One

First let me just say thanks to mcborzu for a great skin and eckstheory for providing the inspiration for my little mod. I made a sort of clone of the original Diamond theme in Media Browser.

I know this style is not strictly the same as the other views in Night but let me know what you think anyway. Night has been and will be for the foreseeable future, my skin of choice and my favorite sandbox. This is my first attempt so be gentle. Add the following download to your skin.night folder.

Movie Poster with info


Movie Poster view after selecting "Hide Info" and "Dark View"

I do like it, one thing I always think is hard to come up with is a good idea for Poster covers. I really like those poster covers! The covers seem a little too tall vertically though, unless that was taken on a 16:10 moniter, those screen ratios always stretch things vertically...

I cannot take credit for those covers. I just tried to get as close to that Diamond theme as possible because I liked that look.

Yes to the 16:10 monitor but I don't think that I changed your original fixed list height. I do remember tweaking the Focus height and width though. I'll take another look. This is trial and error for me but I'm starting to get addicted.

ohh good one. never seen diamond so no clue how close it is. i would love to see that with maybe runtime, year and imdb rating as numbers under the title. maybe smaller covers for more fanartview and covers a bit closer maybe. what u reckon?

The runtime should be ok to do. Do you have an example of a skin or view that does the imdb rating the way you like?

Would be nice to see this view in Music section too ...

hmm xbmc just take the imdb rating from imdb. think it still does? aeon had options for displaying them as star or numbers.

LOVE IT just the way it is nice fanart view big poster and not filled with loads of useless data Really who cares what the IMDB rating is....
any chance of a tester any time soon ?

I should be able to post it in the next couple of days. I am tidying up some of the code as I made a mess when I started changing things.
