For those of you who like the MCE colour scheme, or are having problems displaying the graphics correctly, I have a reworked version of Monochrome in the works.

I don't know what the interest would be, but here are some screenies...

Version 1.6 Changes:

You can now choose between 8 and 12 lines in the TV Guide.
Removed IMDB info from myvideo.xml when not using Zeflash or Boelshit's modified dll files (oops).
Fixed a bug in TV series - not showing series info.
Updated TV settings to include LATM AAC Audio Codecs.
Added support for MyMinesweeper v0.1, MyConnect4 v0.3, MySimonSay v0.5, MyClickMania v1.1, MyMastermind v2.10.
Updated MyTetris and MySudoku so all games use the same layout.
Added games menu.
Minor change to TV guide gfx.
Removed some unneccassary menu slide backgrounds from some screens (Indigo).
Fixed hp_selectionbar.png (Indigo).
Fixed a problem with 4 dialogs (Indigo).
A few other things that I can't remember just now ;-).

2. Go to this video folder, and as soon as you are there press the right button (both remote or keyboard) scrolling about 15 videos.

If it doesn't happen to you first time, keep doing step 2.

As soon as you go left, it fixes itself.

My screen res is 1920x1080.

Thank you for this great skin.

Yes, I have the exact same bug as well with 1920x1080 screen res. In fact, I have this bug with the Xface skin as well, so I suspect it's probably a MediaPortal bug and not specific to the Monochrome/Indigo skins. If it has any bearing here, I'm using an ATI Radeon HD 2600 Pro and also had this bug with my on-board ATI Radeon X1250.

Btw, I must commend Psycho Reptile for the awesome work he is doing. He is always providing excellent updates and fixes to his skins, and packages his skins with excellent installation instructions! He also takes user feedback and incorporates it into future revisions of his skins! Thanks!!! You're doing an awesome job for the MP community and I wish more and more of us contributors would follow in your steps!
This bug is now fixed in svn 19453

I spoke to early, it's not fixed

But I found out how it's caused. In a new installation if you don't modify screen calibration, then there is no problem, but if you modify screen calibration for overscan, then you get this problem. It's a MediaPortal bug.

Hi Psycho Reptile.

Did you see the SVN changes from Gibman regarding the recording indicators? SVN Changes are 19405, 19418-19420, 19423 & 19430.
It would be nice to see these changes for Indigo as well. And it would especially nice if you can post the changed files here so we can update our skin directly


Thanks
Lars

I did a small hack when Gibman submitted it to SVN. I share my file here, I prefer to have quite large fonts and few channels in the miniEpg but you guys can change that with ease. Remeber to copy the relevant icons (tvguide_button*) from Bluetwo.

I have an error with the MyTVSeries plugin - the Season image doesn't show...
I get nothing in Indigo and a "No Season Image Found" in Monochrome.
If I select a series with multiple seasons, then the images work fine...

skin or plugin issue?


#Edit
Fix found Installed the latest SVN release (From Here)

Hi,
how i could include title of thumbnails in the myMusic section? Indeed i don't have cover arts for all my albums and it's difficult to identify blank ones.

Thanks
Fabien

If you upgraded from an old build of the TVSeries plugin then the 'Download episode thumbnail' option may be disabled in the configuration...check that. Clean installs are enabled by default.
