You have an idea how MediaPortal could be improved? Post it in here.
Yes, you're right, my mistake. All your 'impressions' are correct! Thanks for clarifying that. Yup, and I cannot find a way to use that special layer for my own purposes! I think it is hard coded to specific window ids. Good for you, getting back on topic when I was wandering off! Yeah, and I'm sure not the creative...

At present, if <allowoverlay> is set to yes then overlays are disabled when a menu panel is accessed i.e. facade is not in focus...

1. Time Jump is a wonderful feature in MediaPortal. For example, if you have a two-hour movie, you can jump to the middle of the movie by typing 0100 on your remote control. As of today typing 0100 only produces three digits on the screen: 01:0_ and the last digit works as Enter key as well and doesn't appear even for a second. There...

I know it is implemented and works pretty well when the pointer is in the MediaPortal screen. But with dual monitor system the pointer never autohides if it is in the second monitor. I use my second monitor as a slide show picture frame and the cursor always stays on top if cought in that monitor. I know I can slide the pointer to the...

Sounds good idea (not all people are able to calcultate the 10% step in their head when they don't know the current position :P). Someone, please provide a patch that adresses this issue and it will get included into SVN (unless it is a hack or buggy solution).

Pressing UP or DOWN makes an immediate big step forward or back, but there is no OSD on the screen. Why can't we have an OSD here...

There are many posts about the problem displaying images nicely in a skin when they can be of varying sizes and shapes. Is it not possible for MP to check the Windows properties for dimensions and simply determine if the image is portrait or landscape? Then skinners could use some conditional visibility code to display images one...

Hopefully skinners will be able to do that in MP2?

Is it possible to add the possibility for <define> tags to be imported from <import> files? Example: file1.xml <define>#labeltext:blablablablabla</define> file2.xml <import>file1.xml</import> <control> <type>label</type> <label>#labeltext</label> </control>

I would love to have the ability to align text vertically on buttons menus and listcontrols. Why? Because right now if you change font sizes in a skin you have to change the textYOff position in every case for each font size if you want it to be readable and look good. If text could be vertically centered on buttons, menus and...

something for the skin devs to utilize... create a new skin module available to each of the modules/screens, such as., DialogHelp.MyTVServer.xml, DialogHelp.MovingPictures.xml, or DialogHelp.MYMusicPlaylist.xml, that can be called from a button or context sensitive menu (info?) to help users unfamiliar to MP and the various skin...

I know there are a few apps about that can launce external EXEs but can any open the app inside MP, For example an inset window in the GUI a bit like the TV viewer when looking through the EPG but a bit bigger? If not surly this is worth a look as it would give MP the capability to do anything 3rd party software can do with no...
