BleazleWide V7.1.0 (2 Viewers)

[Cressari]

Welcome back, Dave

Next year i MUST go to Thailand (i hate flying, cause of that i write "MUST") cause my father lives on Kosamui since 8 years and now it is time to visit him. Hope i will survive 15 hours in Airplane, even without cigarettes, i am nicotine-junkie .

To MP-stuff: I was curious about MP 1.1 cause i wanted to know if this stupid evr.dll-bug is gone now. Its gone and picture quality ist fantastic as never before.

I thought Bleazle 7.1 is not running under MP 1.1 cause of that i installed BlackGlass that is for MP 1.1 too. Running good, but there is only 1 Bleazle-skin and always i look to other skins i think "hmm, looks nice, but its not Belazle".

Today i tried Bleazle V 7.1 under MP 1.1 and it runs perfect. Didnt think its possible but it runs as silk! I am totally happy cause my beloved skin is running, MP 1.1 ALPHA runs without a problem, evr-bug is gone, picture quality is stunning.

Its very quiet in my job @moment (still holiday-time) i will fiddeling support of new fantastic plugin "HTPC-Info" for Bleazle. When its ready i will post it here.

Cheers // Cress

OK, here is the xml for HTPCINFO that matches look of Bleazle much better. The plugin is top, it is a mix from sysinfo and fanatic-monitor. sysinfo is top too, but sometimes my MP freezes using sysinfo, cause of this i am glad that there is a new plugin that does this work - here you find it!

Problem is that htpcinfo.xml has much too small fonts when you installed it. Cause of this you can use the attached htpcinfo.xml - after installing htpcinfo (see pdf-file that comes with htpcinfo), just overwrite existing htpcinfo.xml in your Bleazle-folder with my htpcinfo.xml

Important hint: In original htpcinfo there are 2 sections more 1) Operating System 2) TV-Card ..... i removed both cause i needed the space for much bigger fonts and i think Operating System everybody knows what OS he has, so i think there is no need to be shown, like TV-Card and Signal Level and Signal Qualitiy. Everybody knows that the displayed signal quality and level are fantasy and its not a real value.

System Information and Sensor Information i use bigger fonts than Network and Machine, cause i think System and Sensor are the most important values, so ich coosed font 18 for a quick view of this values.

Now after a few hours fiddeling out correct xml-values i admire skinners more than ever - for me it was horror, but it made fun.

I dont think my htpcinfo.xml is perfect, but its much more readable than in original with its ants-fonts

After a shower (still shitty hot here) and a cold beer i will create correct grayscaled hover and the green bar.

@all: Please excuse my bad english, i have no better


Edit: Here is the greyscaled icon for htpcinfo. just kick file in Media folder of bleazle skin! @ the moment i am not able to get the greenbar. Will fiddle out today evening, did it like Dave told in another thread, but doesnt function. I try later

Cressari,

Thanks for the HTPCinfo.
I Have tried to get the green button as well to no avail.
I use 1360 x 768 so I moved things a bit and did a new top left image.

Hey, it's great to be back I think every German I met in Thailand was a smoker (I was surprised by that) so if they can make it there you (probably..) can too ....

Re: MP 1.1 - I'm going to wait for at least RC1 before I get into tweaking things, I'm trying to avoid having to do multiple releases but glad to hear it's working for you as it is.

I had a quick look at this plugin but it didn't really tell me anything I felt needed to know so I'm not running it. I've attached a slightly altered hover image - has a shadow and reflection.....

Cressari,

Thanks for the HTPCinfo.
I Have tried to get the green button as well to no avail.
I use 1360 x 768 so I moved things a bit and did a new top left image.

@ both of you guys - I can't get a green button to show either Maybe one of you could contact the maker of the plugin and ask how MediaPortal "calls it" (?) and then give that a go....

@ stdly - Good work with the title graphics (saves me doing it! ). Have you incorporated the slide/fade etc? If you have why not zip everything and post it here?: https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/bleazle-311/plugin-support-version-7-a-59166/

I've just added a zip file with the fading hover images here: https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/bleazle-311/plugin-support-version-7-a-59166/

Germans smoke because they wont get any old-age-pension anymore, threatened by old-age-poorness, better have fun with smoking and die young

Tomorrow (Wednesday evening, Thursday morning in New Zealand) I contacted the author of the plugin, therefor i can create the green bar. I will post button_????????.xml here here and in plugin support - Thread.

Thanks for much better hover, i must do more with Photoshop, i am a typical technician without creativity and thanks for uploading zip.

Cheers // Cress

I Have both images and have edited the xml file but get no animation of the images? Maybe you can take a look?

Thanks allot!

Mates, we have a riddle in da house
Author of htpcinfo sent me PM. Name of plugin is HTPC Info, in Mediaportal.xml its called exactly so.
button_HTPC Info.xml should do the job but it doesnt. Somehow strange.
I have no Idea anymore. But for me it is not so serious to have the green bar in Plugin-Section.

Cheers // Cress

Ya no biggy it is a cool plugin. System info is nice eye candy but not as useful and it locks up my system every once in a while.
The text does change color when the htpc info button is selected?

 

[Cressari]

Hoi stdly

youre right, sysinfo was cool, but often MP freezed complete when i was using sysinfo so i am glad that htpcinfo is out.
Yes, color changes from light grey to white when button is selected, just no green bar. Dont know why but i think it is not serious important, i had contact with the author of htpc info, he has no idea too. plugins name is HTPC Info, so button_HTPC Info.xml should work but it doesnt.

Kind of voodoo?

Cheers // Cress

I did do some skin images/xml files maybe someone will find useful?

I did htpcinfo, musicvideos, myonlinevideos.

Find them here https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/bleazle-311/plugin-support-version-7-a-59166/#post505357

Steve

Edit : I didn't realize that Dave had made the image for music videos. I replace the images in the myonlinevideos.rar file with his. It is much nicer!
