Hi cul8er,

thx for your answer! The thing is: everything worked fine with MP RC2 and X-Factor R615. The problems began with R630 and probably because of FanartHandler 1.9

Hi Mike1978,

Well the thing is that R615 did use different animations that was not affected by the animation bug in RC2. R630 uses different animations (HIDDEN and VISIBLE) so I still think it has something todo with the MP RC2 bug but is still looking into the skin and plugins to be 100% sure.

If you go into settings and change the Xfactor settings. Change the animations to Beta animations and see if the problem still exists. This would be a good thing for me to know when continuing my investigation.

best regards

Hi Mike1978,

Thank you for your help. To me this confirms that the next MP 1.1 RC will fix the original issue

This did it for me too... All problems fixed (except floating menu bar )

Edit - just put all your fixes on and see the menu bar is back in position in AeonNoRSS... thank you very much.

I hope I've not missed this somewhere, but every time I install xfactor, the web service doesn't work - I can't get online videos, I can't get any weather, basically anything requiring internet access.

I have to do a complete uninstall and reinstall using another skin to put it right!

Hi cul8er!

I love the skin but for me some text gets cut off, for example in weather where wind info text cuts off, or in tvguide it seems the font is too big.

I tried changing "fontLowerCase14" in fonts.xml, which weather info seem to use, to height 12 and it looks much better, the tvguide also looks better.
Am I the only one with this problem or is this a fix you could include in future versions of the skin?

Thanks!

Hi Two_Edge,

Please post some screenshots so that I can see what it looks like on your screen. Please also let me know your video card resolution that you output to your tv/monitor.

best regards

Hi cul8er!

This is how the weather is looking on my screen. The videocard outputs 1920x1080 to my tv.
In this screenshot the last "/h" in km/h of current wind info is missing... I will post some more screenshots of tvguide etc later...

Regards

Just to let you know, the two problems I posted at post 154 of this thread have both been fixed by installing your new process.rar files and the new fanart handler from your "Fixes for known issues (R630). UPDATE 2010-04-28!!!" thread.

Thanks
