3DMP - Blue version Beta1 (3 Viewers)

[rtv]

why did you make all that gfx in such a low resolution?

I appreciate this - of course the source gfx should be of superb quality but many skins aren't usable on machines with 512 MB RAM - especially with shared onboard DX9 graphics :-/

i love the basichome screen. but i find it's always a pity that the access to all the other plugins is so limited. isn't it possible to make a "second row" or even a third one in basichome?

what i mean is that when you are on basic home you can press "down" to toggle to another row with other plugins or, as mentioned, even a third one. but as far as i know from the skin structure, plugins are not automatically added to the home screen so man have to either add them manually or build a homescreen with the basichome structure....

i had the same idea as well! a second smaller row of buttons on the basic home would be ideal for plugins. mofux has created a 'basic home' generator for his nonafo skin that let's you select plugins and stuff to include there - maybe that program could be modified for this?

great skin btw!!

Great work, thanks alot!

But why does the EPG screen have a different background?

I really like the look. Nice job on the graphics.

Some things to look at though:

The font on the TV guide for the show details needs more contrast. It is hard to see the far right words against the background, and what's with the Meedio sounds?

why did you make all that gfx in such a low resolution? you could make it 2 times bigger so that quality f.e. on TFT monitors would be better (higher screen resolutions)

I know. but for example mp works with icons 84x84 pix. I have icons 256x256 for this skin but when mp resize image looks bad or image borders are sharp.

This skins run on my pc at 1280x1024 LCD screen and work great.

If you need more res, wait for next version, 1280 and 16:9

This theme are for 720x576 only (standard)

I don't know i found this sounds on wavesource.com looking for mouse click.

If it's true i will change sounds

Skin is great regarding it's first beta release. Not so much bugs in it neither...

There are few thoughts I share with others here:

Also the TV guide needs a bit more work, it's quite hard to read and to find out where the highlight is.

I think those plugins My tvseries and Myfilms (last version) should be incoporated in your skin

personally i vote for Myfilms at first place...

As you can see at the picture I posted, it seems like the news icon is to big at the news screen....

^^
this applies to other screens too (like Recorded and Scheduled TV...)

Other than that:

- don't like expression 'tv guide' in basic home menu (should be live tv or similar)...

- 'pause' live tv osd is not finished (too white, isn't transparent)...

- 'mute' live tv text is off the place...

- volume osd isn't finished too (too different from other gfx elements)

- channel name osd when zapping live tv by pressing numbers isn't changed from original skin (i know your tv card is broken )...

- selected row in recorded tv screen (when is set to Icons view) is hard to read... changing the view to list and back to icons I lost my channel thumbnails gfx (?!?) ...

- anyway, it's great skin and it's great to have around such talented skiner... keep up with good work

rgs,

Vanessal - I think with the constructive words of criticism and the the fact that people have been anxiously waiting for this skin -- well you have winner here. Yes it is a beta since you have only been on the forum two weeks we certainly call you an artist!

Thanks for releasing this first MP skin. I for one look forward to your enhancements to this and also to future MP skins!
