I have not come across a 16:10 screen, but if the demand is high enough I will look into this further once the 16:9 is further developed....


Please Note that version 1.0.2 is available for download..

regards

Richard

Hi Richard,

I can't wait to install this update!

Would you be able to provide a changelog on the first post and/or on the main download page?

Thanks!

Hi Natrlhy,

I'm sorry I have been a bit disorganised with this release.... the main changes have been on the progress bars, there are a few new icons and also included a new font for the headers (athough I have not implemented the headers through out the skin yet... the 2 home pages now are correct)......

Please expect a more detailed change log for version 1.0.3

Richard

Also with v1.0.3 I am hoping to include an update feature in the installer, so that you won't have to uninstaller any previous versions... (I've not tested this yet but in theory it should work)...

Both replies sound good I'll post my findings when I get this updated skin installed.

Regarding the update feature, typically if I install a new skin or an update to an existing one, i just delete the old directory and extract the updated skin in it's entirety to the skin folder. You are correct, in theory it should work

Hi,

Would it be possible to implement fast forward and rewind buttons on the TV OSD popup, currently there is only a pause button there.

Hi Elorentz,

Currently alot of the screens haven't really been "designed" they have just been ported in from blue two and then "themed". When we get on to tidying up the TV OSD I will look at it then..

regards

Richard

Superb skin.

BTW: 16:10 screens are basically for those who use PC monitors - e.g. my Dell 2405

I just use 16:9 skins and let it stretch a bit
