Re: Avalon 0.9.1.190 Beta ***10-06-11*** for MP 1.2.x

Fantastic looking skin however, I have noticed that when in Moving Pictures, List view, the icons showing sound etc are too close together and even overlap each other.

Can this be corrected??

Keep up the good work. :D

This is an excellent skin, it is very complete for a first release reflecting the time you've taken to build it - so a big thanks for that.

I have identified a few small issues:

  1. TV Series - The series rating stars and episode metadata icons are placed on top of one another. (07-29-09.png)
  2. TV Series - The now playing data overlaps the episode thumb. (07-34-38.png)
  3. TV Schedules - The schedule list is too long. (07-30-23.png)
  4. OK Dialog Box - Is a bit too transparent - so when text is shown underneath is can look like part of the dialog. (07-30-58.png)
  5. Online Videos - In icon view the folder up icon overlaps the first icon, also the folder up icon looks stretched. (07-36-04.png)
  6. Online Videos - This meny cycles between views however some plugins (e.g. Radio) you get a Layouts Menu. (07-36-29.png) [EDIT]Ignore this - it occurs to me it is down to plugin design.
  7. TV Guide (and a few other places) - Some text is too small to read comfortably. This may be a personal thing but I have increased some font sizes which make these screens easier to read. (07-37-41.png, 07-40-55.png, fonts.zip)
  8. Home screens - If the last weather day is Wednesday then the 'Wednesday' text falls out of the container. (no screenshot for this)

    This is perhaps a resolution issue. Is your tv set to 1080p?

    Thanks for reporting! We will fix these issues in the next release. I think we can make an option for larger fonts in the whole skin.

    This skin is much appreciated!

    Bug report: the rating stars is out of place when rating a movie in Moving Pictures plugin.

    Request: 10 or 12 row EPG :cool:

    smaller ? :eek:

    not every guy sit one meter for the tv !

    The Home Screen is perfect and the EPG Font Size is already to small !

    I have a 52" inch Sony LCD and i sit about 4 meter away from the TV and i almost cant read the EPG.


    regards

    I didn't mean the EPG itself i mean the program details on the bottom of the EPG and there only the title.

    I've tested it 3,5m away from a 37" LCD (bedroom). But i think the same on my 60" plasma.

    Good point, my laptop only goes to 1440x900 and I'm testing that as 1.2.0 beta for some reason seems to not support my dvb-s cards whereas 1.2.0 alpha works fine so I'm testing on the laptop before moving to the main machine. :oops:
