I must agree that the background is a bit dark and that some selections are hard to see/read. Especially the menus on the left side. The original Razor is brighter so maybe you could find a compromise?

Some minor issues:
  • In My Music - Artist - View: Big Icon List the artist description overlaps the folder icon.
  • The Artist/Actor view (F3) does not use the space it could. Is it possible to improve this view changing the skin?
  • The playlist in My Music shows nothing althoug the songs seem to be in the list and are also playing. Using BlueTwoWide all songs are shown.
Please see the attached screenshots, pictures tell more than words.

Tested with
  • MediaPortal-svn--12-20-2006--02-11-Rev12270.exe
  • SpinSafe_Skin_061219_2053.rar
Will look at it right away.

Go to My Music, then change view to Artists, select any artist folder and hit F3. It will download the artist information just like movie, album, etc information and then show it.
Hope that helps.

Hello again
So here we go:
- TV-series - working fine!
- No back-button - my fault, working fine!
- Animation - we will se if there will be an solution. In the meantime - am I the only one thinking its some time not intuitive witch direction it spins. Not saying the opposit would be better, im just some times rotating the basichome the wrong way......
- Darknes of the buttons - Im sure you find something out!
- And a new bug - I dont get any videos at all in the video section. If Im switching to another skin they are all there (running version 19 dec).
Regards
Oscar

I want to tanks all users that have taking there time to post the bugs they have encountered. Becorse i dont use all of the functons in MP, some of the bugs reported whould not been fund if someone did´t report them.

New update will be uploaded in a few days.
Some of the biggest changes are.
  • New focus background for the buttons in the sidebar menus.
  • Fixed playlist and PlayNow screens
  • And alot of other small chages

to everybody who downloaded this skin.

1. When I started mediaportal today and was listening to some music I noticed a strange thing when entering MyTV. The album art that normally is located in the corner is now displayed in the TV window (take a look at screen shot). First I thought that this was not skin-related but then I cam to the conclusion that I did not update the main program only the skin files. So I am NOT running 0.2.2.0, maybe that is the problem I don't know.

2. When I was looking around to find some more bugs in the skin I looked at the settings section, didn't go there until today actually, I saw that most of this is still to be worked on. Mostly small things but still not a pretty sight and sometimes even not usable.

Many thanks, your skin rules!!!!

This is not a skin problem.
When you go to a screen that uses a viszulation window, the small viszulation window that used to be in the right corner will disapear and the viszulation will continue in the other window. I dont think i can do something about it.
Correct me if i´m wrong.

Well, It is the first time this happened, maybe I did update with SVN and I just forgot about it...Maybe a dev could help us out here, cause as it is right now it is not really the way it should be.
