No, Please don't do that.

Some movie titles do have silly capitalized letters in the tiles just so as to make the movie title stand out/Look different. If you make the defult that all letters are capitalized. Then said movie titles will not read as they are meant too.

Well I updated my MOD to this, didn't update GIT yet. Still from all the code reading and testing so far I detected a few lines of text that get overlapped and some other that are not aligned, will try to report with the changes necessary to the BUGS topic asap, but I have a lot of other projects going on in my MOD now, so can't promise anything, except for some missing text in jukebox in list mode they are little things, I can live with it for some days.

Some text seems a little odd at first but I'm getting used to them anyway.

Thought Jukebox was good, both Library and Files, but yea there probably will be a few places here and there that need correcting...And no rush, if you find something let me know, thx...

OMG!!!!!!!

All night trying every font available in Unicode that's "free" and they are all the same crap, the ones that are a little different doesn't look good with the skin. Cant believe this crap.

Well, seems we are stuck with this ones.

On the Whole, Love the change. Much easier on the eyes then the previous font.

Only Problem, You used the XBMC Repo version of Night instead of the last Dharma Update (6 June 2011) of Night. I personally use the playlist option for Movies, because I keep both Stand Up comedies and Movies. I Use 2 Smart Playlists to separate them. Selecting Movies, usually goes to the Movies Only Playlist, and A Sub-Menu for Stand Up.

It Would Be Nice If You Could Update This To The Latest Dharma Update From The Git.
