thx for the BUG report @ IEB
that'll be it.
i don't know if i have time the next few days ...
but if that is so - only a few little tiny things will be changed.
- driveFreeSpace will be expanded to 26 drives
so it is not important anymore which label (a,b,c,d, -z) a drive has in use...
does anybody know how i can manag it that the plugin only shows the mapped drives?
it is a bit strange to see the progressbar for 26 drives although only 6 are in use - f.e. here @ my PC)
- SysInfo
needs to be cleared up
some grafic coordinates and size are not ok
- media-slayer
- explorer-plugin
both need to be added ... but i think all those points are hmm not "burning" @ the moment.
so i do not know when i will make it... time is less the next days---
BUT - if anybody finds some grafic or other bugs - plz post them here (best with screenshot)...
i am always glad for feedback
happy using (and testing)

Hi,
I finaly had some time to try this new version. The last version i tried was 0.5 and when i came back from vacation it was 1.0 already Very cool. This new version rocks - only one problem though - home screen is veeery slow on my underpowered setup.
Keep up the good work

hi frgo
thx for the nice words ...
well if the Home screen ist to slow maybe you can switch some of the programs/plugins in the "myPlugins" sub-folder
so you can reduce the needed CPU load for the "home-layer" ...
maybe that would help a little ...

Hi,
I don't think it's plugins - I only have My videos, My pictures, My music & My radio. It has probably something to do with large graphics and fonts... 64mb videocard just isn't enough anymore. I had similar problems before with some other skins. Speed was greatly improved when I set FPS to 15, but it doesn't work all the time. Well, I guess it's time to buy myself a new HTPC

ah i see ... that could be the reason for the slow speed ...
the hover grafics need a bit more GPU-RAM
maybe it is enought if u take a 256 MB Grafic card.
( i have the same problem with my old laptop it has a ATI 9700 mobile with "32" MB .... really slow)
i was wondering all the time why that is so - couse the centrino is fast enought (1.6 Ghz) ... but
now that we talk about it - i see the problem (with my Laptop) clear ...

perhaps this (https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/...s-46/do-we-really-need-packed-textures-55616/) can help using the skin with a low mem graphics card.
polarie: I'm thinking all the time about new graphics card, but it's incredibly hard to find low profile agp with more than 64mb everthing for sale are just old radeons 7000s, geforce 4s and old matroxes... I'll buy new htpc in a few months, when it's time it's time This one can barely play 720p mkv's so there is yet another reason.
marvenius: this hack used to work well with mepo 1.0. With 1.0.2 it's not needed anymore, but some skins are just too heavy to work with low mem cards...
