@ garyday, kingnubian: I should happen everywhere - somebody commented out the progress bar in that xml! :mad: Remove the <!-- and --> around control id 118 in MyMusicPlayingNow.xml

@ Darre, you should know better than that those are running screenies, I'll post files when I'm happy with a relatively complete release ;).

That did the trick!!

I guess this "Fixed" xml could be posted to SVN so others may not run into this issue as well.

Thanks again.

Gotta Love this Rapid Progress!!

This is shaping up to be one of those "WoW!!" skins. Amazing stuff really...

Some things I've noticed.

1) When changing between backrounds MP hickups & jerks a bit. It is not major but very noticeable for sure. This occures when "surfing" through the main screen.

2) MyRadio is bland and obviously hasn't been addressed as yet. I'm sure it will be soon. It's a feature I use often.

3) MyFilms support is lacking but with the new IMDB MyMovies screen it doesn't hut as much but still does.

4) In MyMusic & selecting Album Info screen somettimes leads to overlapping text.

This is a fantastic skin and I'm excited to see the progress.

anyone know of a torrent like the one on Spucks site for tv fanart but without the vignette templates already applied (eg the tvdb originals)? This would be so it can be used as backgrounds for the barious menus in Aeon

Isn't that what I said? ^^ Except I had no way of knowing how finished the xml's where :)

@ Kingnubian: To get rid of "hickups" try to only use uncompressed files, meaning .bmp

If you still get them then it might just be your PC thats slow..

@mrbenn: Lots of .bmp's are hosted on the aeon homepage: AEON: A new interface for XBMC - ABOUT

I'll give it a try but my PC isn't slow. I'm running an Intel E4300 @2.5ghz.

Update: The BMP's work like a charm, great quality as well from that site (Bookmarked) you posted. Thanks again.

First, thx thx and thx for your great work. :) I think is the most beautiful skin made for this program..

Some questions:

1. If you look in c:\Program Files\Team MediaPortal\Mediaportal\ you'll see a core.dll, overwrite that one with the one I posted.

1. The only change made to this DLL is for randomize the background in the modules, is it?
With today SVN version does the CORE.DLL is already modified or not?

2. With MyFilm plugin I can't see the expected layout as MyMovies, but only basic black screen with images and description information. I've notice in the skin directory the files MesFilm.xml and MesFilmDeatails.xml, so I guess to rename these files into MyFilms.xml and MyFilmsDetails.xml because I've installed MyFilms_SVN_4.5 to have the correct screen layout, is it or not? May be other problem?

3. I see, with some others skins, the plugin MyTVSeries can display fanart images instead of basic background, and also Logo informations of media type (x264, DD, BluRay, ect.) if present. Is it possible to implement in the skin the same functions?

4. If Yes for the previous question, can you extend also for MyFilms plugin?


Romulus.

1. The randomization was and is included in RC1. That is, as far as I know, the only build that has it. There haven't been SVN revisions since early April. None of those have it included. The SVN that will come out tommorow (Friday) will have it. All new SVN revisions will have to be installed over RC1, though.

3. Yeah, it does fan art. Just put your fan art in Thumbs\fan art. You can get logos and logo rules from the TV-Series forum section to get those showing.

I'm not sure this skin can display LOGO images (Dvd, Hd, AAC ect..) in TVseries screen because I just tried to enable logo rules, but nothing apperas on screen... with another skin the icon appear!!

Someone can help me to insert the logos in the screen? In my opinion in the red/blue box I draw below on the screen..

Thx :)

Any news for MyFilms screens? Plan for the next release?

Good work, thx

I'd like to contribute for the skin enhancement... but I don't know if I've the lastest files with all modifies made for other users (only downloaded the zip file 0.1.1)

So, if I pick the skin files from SVN URL might have the lastest progress version?
Does Gemx spuck and Darre puts their job in SVN folder or not?

Thx.
