Backdrop - Skin (RELEASED!!!) (3 Viewers)

[cul8er]

Hi protonenpumpe,

Thank you for your report. Can you please the the MP standard skin "Default Wide" and see if the problem also exist in that skin. Cannot find anything I can do in a skin file that controls this.

While looking at this issue I decided to redo the min epg screen, see attached screenshot.

Hope you like it.

best regards

AW: Backdrop - Skin (RELEASED!!!)

0.6 feedback

- listdarkening gone!

- TVseries detail view broken, text misplaced, episode description appears twice

- Watched/Unwatched -> White/Blue, so still reversed

- Upper listborder leftover once detail view appears in Moving Pictures

Thanks

Everytime I try to install this skin, the installer freezes. It happens with all versions. Most of the time it will install after a few retrys. This doesn't happen with other skin/plugins. Known issue?

Edit: When I disable installing the font files, it will install after a short freeze!

Hi cruse,

Please provide some screenshots.

listdarkening gone!

Please decsribe in what plugin and what is gone.

- Watched/Unwatched -> White/Blue, so still reversed

Please decsribe in what plugin and what you mean by reversed. It should be white for watched and blue for unwatched.

cheers

Hi CypherMK,

Not much I can do about this (sorry for this). I use the standard MP installer and just add fonts to it. If this creates a problem you should report this as a bug in the MP 1.2 Beta forum.

listdarkening gone!

Please decsribe in what plugin and what is gone.

I was refering to this original post by me, you fixed it!
"- open context menu anywhere
- use fast scrolling or hold up/down key pressed to move fast through the item list
-> items visited for small fraction of time remain stuck at dark part of the highlight animation

You can essentially darken the whole list this way. Make sure items always return to unfocused state."

- Watched/Unwatched -> White/Blue, so still reversed

Please decsribe in what plugin and what you mean by reversed. It should be white for watched and blue for unwatched.

If this is on purpose then it is not reversed and behaves like you describe it. I was thinking/would strongly suggest white is default/unwatched.

I attached a screenshot for - TVseries detail view broken, text misplaced, episode description appears twice

I attached two screenshots for - Upper listborder leftover once detail view AUTOMATICALLY appears in Moving Pictures, the detail view after selecting an item is fine.

The Problem did also occur with the small mini-Guide in XFactor-skin(, which apparantly served as a template for the backdrop-mini-epg?).
Otherwise I can't remember seeing something like that in any other skin. Perhaps it has something to do with the size and position of the dialog-window??

The new mini-guide is just perfect, thanks a lot!!!

Keep up the fantastic work!

Greetings

Edit: Unfortunately I just found a new bug in version 0.6: In moving pictures when being idle on a movie, the info-screen appears. If you then go right or left to the next movie, the cover-focus moves, but it still shows the backdrop and name of the previous one (and the infos, if being idle again). This only happens in coverflow- and listview and not in filmstrip-view.
Just try the following in coverflow-view: Wait for the info-screen to appear, then press "right". Wait again, press "right" again. Repeat this as often as you like and you can browse your whole collection with the first movie still selected.

Hi Cul8er,

found two bugs:

one was already mentioned, misplaced text in tv series.

The other one is in the now playing screen: Artist name is really small.

for the hard work!

I can also confirm the TVSeries problem.
