Apollo One (3 Viewers)

Thanks, works great! I tried to do similar in parallel, but you were faster

In next step I want to optimise the series view:

• Add red unwatched tab to episode grid view -> where in mediastyles.xaml is this view defined?
  
• Add un-/watched symbol to episode list view
• Add star rating to banner view -> where in mediastyles.xaml is this view defined? I could not find it. Is there a rating for a complete series? Episodes already have the star rating.
  
• Add un-/watched symbol to banner view -> same question as above

Add red unwatched tab to episode grid view -> where in mediastyles.xaml is this view defined?

Actual series episodes don't have an own MediaItem type, they are just "Video", so for now you need to change GridViewVideoItemTemplate. I need to think about a better solution, we could create an EpisodeItem, but then we need to change some models and all skins as well.

Add star rating to banner view -> where in mediastyles.xaml is this view defined? I could not find it. Is there a rating for a complete series? Episodes already have the star rating.

This is a problem of current MediaLibrary structure: we don't store "Series" or "Seasons" as own aspects yet (but working on this!). This means the "Series" (SeriesFilterItem) are only a "give me all distinct 'series' attribute from SeriesAspect". This also means we have no own "series rating".

Ok, I understand. So I changed just what I can do at the moment in the series view section.

Optimised Series Banner view:

• Margins of text adjusted
  
• Shifted Episode # to a new row, so more space for the series name
• Edit: I created a new brush "MediaItemsOpacityBrushWide" in Brushes.xaml, which is used also to enable rounded rorners with banners

​

Optimized Episode view:

• Added un-/watched symbol

I fixed the bottom offset of the content description. Now the space is efficiently used and still enough space to the button. Most contents visible without scrolling.

Is the movie year supposed to be top aligned like that?

Emph

Emph

According to Wiz' mockup it's intentionly as it is. See here:
https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/attachments/apollo-movies-1-jpg.158449/

Benefit is, that the year can be surely seperated from the title. There is for example the movie "2012" from the year "2009".
"2012 2019" would be confusing

But tastes are different. Of course there could be also a small dot as seperator. I prefer current style

I adjusted the star rating shape according to the mockups.
Means the space between the stars is slightly narrower and more space for genre information existing.

​

Additionally I created a new variant by a rounded star shape

​

@wizard123 Which one do you like more?

As reference the previous star rating style:

Attached is the actual star if you need anything else just shout

Is it also possible to align the list text to the description text like in mockups ? the scrollbar should be to theleft of alignment. One more thing too are we ready to drop the border around the selected item yet ? i cant stand it lol.

 

[ge2301]

Can you post the xaml code for this star? The stars are made of polygons or pathes by coordinates. With an bitmap the rating code of morpheus won't work.

For the other question I will answer later. I'm currently at the airport only with cell phone.

Yea no problem will be tomorrow now though
