Just wanted to share, if you dont like it, feel free not to use it.

BlueTwo has the sam problem maybe this should be added there too.

Like this, you can see the Spiderman movie is highlighted, and its also displaying on the far left.
After some closer looking, it looks like a bug, not intensionally.

Here is my feedback from the first tests. I am running 16:9 at 1366xsomething resolution.

- the highlight for the current selected button is not visible enough; the blue shimmery looks cool, but one has to look twice to find which button is selected. Perhaps you cold add some light to the background of the selected button.

- in cover view, the font size below the covers is a bit too small from my point of view. I am about three meters away from a 32'' screen, I can read it, but it's small.

- the clock symbol in the upper right corner is nice, but irritating since it does not show the current time.

- in cover view: the menu is only reachable when I am at the very start of the list and I'm pressing "left" again. This is ok so far, but what if I'm somewhere in the middle of the list? Then I have to press "left", hold some seconds until I'm at the start again, then the menu shows up. In lists with many items this can need 10 seconds or more.
Can you show the menu when I'm pressing "up" or "down", too?

- in "now playing" the coverart should have some border around it, would make it even nicer.

- the background is very nice, I associate a stage lightened by some spotlights - a very good choice for a media center!

Again, your new cover view is perfect. Beside the unbelievable cool design I really like how fast I can browse through it.
Hi JulianBuss,

i have update the coverview, so you can go with arrow up to the buttons also.

Greetings Harley

Hum.. I cant see the frames on any of the movies, pictures or albums. I Just see the thumbnails as they are. Without the DVD cases, CD cases or picture frames around them. Does anyone have any clue why?

And oh, great work on the graphics, harvey

I actually downloaded last svn today, but I seem to have installed an old one..
I managed to install the correct one now, and now that problem is gone

Another thing you might fix though:
Are there really any need for the movie name, just under each cover in filmstrip? Dont you think its enough that the name is displayed on the infoline?
The covers are rather big, not hard to see what movie it is It also keeps the layout abit cleaner.
