I was using an old version with the big menu 1 and 6 (R220?). I knew about the new version R225 but I didn't wanna go through all the hassle of customizing a new basichome and checking if all plugins still work...
Now I did do all that.. installed R225 and also the latest TVSeries plugin. I found the following bugs:

1
The XFactor Config still has that very annoying bug that regular items in the menus get overwritten when you add something to that menu.
It isn't even dependant on selecting something in that menu first. For instance I click on Radio in menu2, then I add Photos to that menu, and Music is replaced by Photos.

I just installed R225 and I am already busy for 20min to create my basichome. Have to start over and over again because Suduko and Music get overwritten all the time and I can't find them in the Available Modules list.


2
And also, it is impossible to add something to Menu6. Whenever I do that I get this error (see attachment) and Xfactor AND MP Configuration are killed.
For instance, I came very far creating my BasicHome, somehow I could even add modules to menu 6 (but only modules that I never added or removed from other menu's, so only completely unused modules). I deleted everything in module 5. Then I clicked Generate and Save (remember this part for bugs 3 and 4).
Now I start the Config again to add items to Menu 5. I get the error in the attachment. It seems there is a bug when you add something to empty menus.

3
See bug 2: after I got the error, when I open the config again, I get to see the EXACT basichome that is shown when you first install XFactor, not my customized basichome I mentioned in bug2.
Where does this xml come from? It's not the backup versions because I deleted those.
I opened Skins\XFactor\BasicHome.xml in Notepad. This is my customized Basichome!
But even worse: I cannot edit my customized BasicHome! Because I only get to see the default/initial basichome in Configuration!
That is so weird!

Even when I generate that default BasicHome then replace the basichome.xml with the backed up one (wich is now my customized basichome) by renaming it, then start the Config, still get to see default basichome!

4
see bug 3, when I start MP, I get to see my customized Basichome (wich is good because thats the Skins\XFactor\BasicHome.xml file)... but where the h*** is the basichome shown in Configuration?
How can I get Configuration to use the basichome.xml instead some ghost (because I don't know where the xml shown in Configuration is located).

5
About Basichome: (directly after starting MP, nothing selected yet) When I want to scroll from menu1 to menu 6, I don't want to go via menu 2,3,4,5 till I get to 6. Like to do that in 1 move, so I move my remotebutton to the left. But now menu 3 is selected... even if menu 1 is default menu.

6
I can't scroll over menu 6. (so from 6 to 1) have to go via 5,4,3,2,1.
EDIT: ok this only happens when menu 6 is empty. I know I have to fill all menus but that can be difficult (see bugs 1-3) When it is filled and I want to go from 6 to 1 directly, it goes to 3 instead (even when I just started MP and nothing is playing, and default menu is 1).

7
See capture-3. 2 problems: the poster is missing for all tvseries. And the list background seems to be missing, on a white background
the list is partially or completely invisible.
The first problem is not fixed after I do this. I suppose more has to be done to support the 23july release of TVSeries.

    Weird alarm screen when exiting a settings windows

    Hi Cul8er,

    Hope you had a nice vacation?

    I found a bug.
    When exiting a settings screen e.g. Setup wizard, General, Screensetup, TV, Music etc. with [Esc] a weird alarm screen is shown instead of previous screen.

    I'm using R225
    Blue3 wide doesn't have this problem.

    Cheers,
    Flip

    I found a "bug" as well. If you have the One Click Music plugin installed and have it switch view at play to "current playlist", a ".xml missing" screen is flashed just before the "current playlist" is shown. Not sure if this is skin specific, as I no longer want to use other skins. :p

    Support for MyBurner would be appreciated.

    XFace has a nice side-by-side layout if you agree and need a starting point.

    I took the liberty of taking your new myburner.xml for a quick 90second test drive and it looks great.
    Did not test every aspect, just a quick audio CD with 2 songs.

    Thanks a lot :)

    BasicHome.xml Problems

    Hi all,

    I've used all previous versions of XFactor as it's (or was) the best user interface out there for Media Portal.

    However, now, when I attempt to start MediaPortal using XFactor R240 on my Vista 64 system, I get the Following error message:

    Missing or invalid file:C:\Program Files (x86)\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal\Skin\XFactor\BasicHome.xml

    What the heck is going on here... Any ideas. https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/images/smilies/jawdrop.gif

    Thanks
