    Nice!, is there an option to not have the list of shows listed at an angle? Also, sometimes the video info via mediainfo runs over the box underlay. Whereas the Res info fades out.

    Things are looking good for sure. I have some issues where if you click on a show and return the text for that show is overtop of the right hand column of shows. I'm going to tweak the TV Series config and see if can get rid of that. I'll followup if I find a fix.

    Thanks for this very fast update - we all appreciate it.

    :D

    After viewing a show when I return to the menu I get this:



    Notice the summary text from 30 Rock is shown on both sides of the screen, overlapping the videos. This text also scrolls.

    My guess is - without knowing how the skinning really works - is that it could be leftover from the base skin this was created for and isn't needed - OR - should just be hidden.

    Hope my screenshot helps.

    I have the same issue where if you view a show summary, then return to the main menu the text is overlaid like in BobMysterios's screenshot... is this an xml issue, or something that needs more work?

    Thanks for the nice blue3 skin and the xml to at least get tv series working!

    I have created a rough translation of blue2 4x3 TVSeries that "works" but is in need of some love. I just replaced the old media names with new ones to update the package and tweaked a few things here and there.

    I am no skin designer and don't have much talent with XML and YMMV with this, but it will suffice for me, for now, but I do want fancy fade-ins and animation.


    Update
    I just noticed this thread is linked from some high up news releases about RC3. This hacked up .xml I made does not use all the fancy pants features of the new skin engine. It is, for lack of a better word, ghetto.

    I think thats enough disclaimer for now.

    the dll in this rar is not working well:

    the log file says it wasn't compiled with an API key for tvdb.com so it won't download anything.

    Hello, I read some previous posts but I didn't understand if someone did it or worked on it. I'd like to ask you if there will be the chance to interface the MP-TV series plugin with TMDB also. I don't say to eliminate the chance to keep data from TVDB, but at least the option to choose to switch to TMDB or (why not?) other sources.

    I have looked at your log files, but as usual they are unintelligible gobbledegook.
