    I have just started created a simple Blue3wide skin for TVSeries for v2.1 release. It wont include any of the fancy Rotations or Animations, Gamejester is going to be doing that.

    Here is a preview for the Series View when Set to Wide Banners Layout

    Nice, will you be adding support for logos as well?

    Here is a test version. It will be packaged with the official v2.1 release along with Gamejester's version's.

    Ensure you are using the latest https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/...ries-2-0-3296-svn-test-build-available-47093/

    Yep, will have a SkinSettings.xml with FormattingRules and LogoRules defined.

    Here is a test version. Ensure you are using the latest https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/...ries-2-0-3296-svn-test-build-available-47093/

    Thanks, this skin looks really neat!

    I tested this on my system but I can't get the logos and rating windows to work.
    I use MediaPortal 1.0.0.0 Final and the SVN build of MP-TVseries you suggested.

    Any other settings I need to change?

    Check my attachments to see what I mean. (I reduced to colors to reduce the image size)
    Resolution 1920x1080

    From the looks of it, it would seem that the latest TVSeries.dll is not loaded. If you re-named your old DLL in the plugins directory then MediaPortal will load both the new and the old. Be sure only 1 TVSeries dll is there.

    Also confirm your version please, attach your TVseries log.

    The DOWNLOAD link on your thread links to an OLD svn build 3279!

    https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/...ries-2-0-3296-svn-test-build-available-47093/


    I manually corrected it to 3296 and downloaded the latest version.

    Now it works! :)

    ps. I also noticed that the provided MediaInfo.dll didn't recognize the resolutions and audio channels correctly.
    I reverted back to MediaInfo 0.7.7.6 as stated in this thread:

    https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/my-tvseries-162/mediainfo-dll-reporting-wrong-resolution-48329/

    and now that works too.

    Thanks, this skin really rocks!

    Thanks for reporting the bad link, no one reported that and its been 5 days already.

    I wonder how many ppl using the skin with the older SVN release.

    I still have a few things to add to the skin, like a Filmstrip view, as well as a List View using Posters. plus a few tidy ups. Im using the skin that was posted here as a framework as I was too lazy to start from scratch.
