BlueTwo reskinned for 1280x720 (mp .2.0.4) (2 Viewers)

[Boilermaker]

In references.xml replace the final 9 lines of the default listcontrol control with the following:

<textXOff>5</textXOff>
<textYOff>4</textYOff>
<textXOff2>0</textXOff2>
<textYOff2>4</textYOff2>
<IconXOff>8</IconXOff>
<IconYOff>4</IconYOff>
<itemWidth>26</itemWidth>
<itemHeight>26</itemHeight>
<suffix>|</suffix>

This should add the icon for a majority of the list controls. You can change the size and placement of the icon in these lines, and move over the text to make room for it.

Hi Boilermaker,

I have just upgraded MP to v0.2.0rc1 with cvs 10-06-2005--19-21 and this latest version of the BlueTwo 1280x720 skin, and when I launch MP, I get the message "The current skin is not up-2-date. This can cause problems when using MP."...

It (MP and this skin) seem to work OK together, so I assume that this message is due to a version number error somewhere in the skin's files, that is easily fixed?...

taipan,
open up the reference.xml for any of the skins that come with mp, and look for the version tag (or something like that) in one of the first few lines. I havent updated the skin at all for the cvs versions because only a few xml files have changed; but since the changes look very minor the skin should work ok.

Yes, that was it.

The version number of the current CVS BlueTwo skin is 0.1.0.15, and the version number of the BlueTwo 1280x720 CVS skin was 0.1.1.15 - so it was effectively a much later (not older as the error message claimed) version - I guess MP was looking for an exact match of version numbers?

Anyway, it is fine now - thanks once again...

Hi Boilermaker,

With this latest CVS of the BlueTwo 1280x720, the Volume and Mute OSDs do not appear on the TV screen in full-screen mode - even though the 2 files "volume.states.png" and "volume.states.mute.png" are included in the "Media" folder. Presumably, there is another change required?

I have tried the default BlueTwo skin and it works fine - displays both the volume and the mute OSDs correctly.

taipan,
I havent changed anything in almost a month, so I'm a little behind. I'll try to make the change sometime this week, and put it in the cvs folder on the ftp server.

It worked like a charm. Thanks!

Boilermaker, just to inform you. Myprograms has also some problems with latest cvs.

volume and mute images added to both mytv and myvideo overlay, as soon as the myprogams issues(s) are addressed, i'll upload a version to the cvs folder on my ftp server.

coolhammer, could you be more specific about what isnt working with myprograms? I just updated mp with the 10-10 cvs and didn't find any problems. Under myprograms i have nintendo, supernintendo and sega emulators with a few roms under each. I was able to see all the emulators and roms under them in the list, view the game information and launch games. myprograms.xml wasnt one of the file changed in the cvs, so i have nothing new to compare the xml to.

thanks

I'll re check it tonight. It could be also problem similar to mymusic and myvideos. Problem appears with standard bluetwo and if you change default view from configure app. So this could be skin related or bug in views code.

I need to check that i have not changed default view of myprograms (bluetwo works ok tho)

Problem I have is that I can not select list of programs with right arrow. Instead of list i see big icons.
