Relection af of music art and video covers in monochrome

oesterballe · 2008-05-11, 16:44

Hi

When I downloaded the monochrome skin, i could see a small preview image of how the skin would look like. Here the album art and movie covers were shown with reflections and on a row, a bit like apples coverflow, but i can't seem to activate this setting anywere.

I've changed the view and that gave me a bigger view of the covers but no reflection. Im running the latest build of MP, downloaded yesterday, but it still doesn't work. Any ideas?

thanks

/Peter

Hi Peter,

I am using the latest Monochrome version and I do see reflections in the cover view. I assume you mean the cover view (see attachmanent)?. Can you select this view? Does it look the same?

Regards
Stefan

Yes precisely, but i don't get the reflection and im using monochrome 1.5.700.

Mine looks like this

Could it be a fault with the skin or MP?

Am i the only one with this problem. What could i be missing? Anyone?

HTPC specs would be helpful. Some gfx cards/chipsets have problems displaying reflections...

I found the culprit. It was my onboard ATI Radeon X1200.

I changed it to a newer ATI card and now the reflections works as it should.

Man i've had problems with the onboard X1200 and i thought i was a good choice. Well not for MP anyways

.

Thanks for the input. and Thanks for a very nice skin Psycho Reptile. Keep up the good work mate.

And btw...Your Screenshot is from "Indigo"-Skin and not Monochrome

(And yes i know Indigo is a Monochrome-Mod

)

hehe... Yeah i found that out. Download the "real" monochrome skin afterwards but had the same probs. Though now its working after changing the video card.

Still a great skin.
