    Re: Re : Re: Re : Black Glass Skin 2.6.0

    Hello,
    Yes, cache was cleared and windows rebooted.
    There was no infoservice plugin cause, tested on fresh MP 1.1.0.0 final without third party plugins.
    More informations :
    - The black screen on escape appears only if the left menu was hidden in weather screen.
    - On screen posted above, I can't use arrows keys (left, right...); to made the left menu appears, I have to click with mouse on left screen side (then, not ability wih a remote).
    - If I hit "enter" key on center screen, view switch to sattellite/geoclock/... (in this case, left menu appears)
    but, I can't see weather for the 5 others days.
    - If I comment the "DUMMY BUTTON" on xml, then, by hitting OK button, I can see theses 5 others days (also, without left menu).
    Hope it helps.

    From your previous logs, i suspect something involving the font rendering engine. Maybe some strange characters the Sansation font does not handle. I'd try to uninstall the font from the Windows Control Panel and reboot... just to see if the font is the culprit.

    As the the exact same code for the left menu has been in use in Black Glass Nova since the last release, i would try Black Glass Nova too if the same problem occurs.

    Thanks

    Tgx,

    I cannot find the 2.6.0 package in MPEI installer ( to be honest I see only 2.4.0 ). Can you be so kind to update it to latest ?

    :D for your great work.

    Simone

    Hi!

    Has the font installation bug been fixed in the mpei installer?
    This is the reason i do not want to release the skin as an mpei package. I had many complaints about the mpei package when i released the 2.4.0 version and i do not want to face them again! I have a thread about the problem here: https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/black-glass-456/problem-rc2-80939/

    Many other skinners do not include the font in the package and i suppose this is for the same reason. Just look at Maya and X-factor skins! On the other way, StreamedMp skin provides its own installer.

    Thanks

    Re: Re : Black Glass Skin 2.6.0

    The new 2.6.0 basichome editor Linked Plugin dropdown doesn't appear to have all my plugins. I'm looking for the Netflix plugin (ID is 10099).

    I had it in the prior basichome editor. I looked in the plugins.xml file and don't see Netflix in there either. The prior editor didn't include a plugins.xml file but did have a Netflix entry.

    If I configure Netflix to show in MyPlugins, I can navigate to it and it displays fine.
    I decided not to include the Netflix plugin among the supported plugins because the Netflix skin files have been developed by the plugin author and not by myself. In the last Black Glass version many changes have been made to the code from a structural point of view and surely the old Netflix skin files do not work well under this new skin release.

    However, you can modify the plugins.xml file (in the Basic Home editor folder) to include the Netflix entry!

    Thanks

    Then remove also the 2.4.0.0 as it doesn't make sense to allow install a so old version and not the new one.

    Hi,
    I tried all this cases with same behavior :
    - MP with english language and london city.
    - With Black Glass and Black Glass Nova skins.
    - With and without Sansation_Regular.ttf fonts with reboot Windows and clear cache each time.

    Maybe someone else could confirm or not this problem ?
