Frames Skin for MediaPortal 1.2.x [v1.2.7 - 29-09-2012] (Original Thread) (2 Viewers)

Thanks! If you register at For the Records forums and PM dot-i he'll give you access to the beta version for sure. I helped other skinners getting access before. Normally it's only for donators but skinners are kind of donators

Thanks!, I will register and will make a request for the beta version.

I found another issue. When rating movies in Moving Pictures plugin, there's no dialog showing and it's not possible to go back to the main menu. Menu sounds are still playing but the window is stuck.

The 'dialogGeneralRating' is indeed missing and will be added to the (SVN) version.

Yo, I've installed SVN1.2.6.82 and found small issues.

The movie cover in the details view of Moving Pictures doesn't seem to fit inside the frame.
Next to the rating there's some text "(Rated...". What? Something is missing


If a series episode name is too long it'll overlap the date and watched icon in MP-TV Series.

Great skin, many thanks.
Only 1 thing I miss is dark mod

I changed the size of the frame (Has now same size as cover image), but normally you should not see both at the same time due to a visibility condition. (I can not reproduce it at least without removing the condition).
There was a width condition added to the rating property and now you don't have to guess anymore what is behind 'Rated'.

If a series episode name is too long it'll overlap the date and watched icon in MP-TV Series.

I changed the facade for list view and this overlap issue should also be fixed now.

Please see attachment for the updated files.

Installed & checked against base, MP TV Series, Moving Pictures & World Weather and it all works perfectly - even my local fix script to change the images on main menu works.

Excellent stuff.

Cheers - JCMP

The default icon logo size of For the Record is 84 x 84 pixels which gives av very poor quality logo since Frames is using 153 x 150 for its placeholder. However Glenn told me how to increase the logo quality in "4TR_Home.xml" and "4TR_Radio_Home.xml" skin files. The following hidden control needs to be added:

    <control>
      <description>Dummy label to hold global settings for this skin!</description>
      <type>label</type>
      <id>420</id>
      <label>#settings:logo-icon-size=153,150;guide_time=Center</label>
      <visible>no</visible>
    </control>

Here's what the difference looks like:

My logo is only 114 x 112 so with the control above added to Frames we could get even better logo quality than this

Hi Lbr_Lion,
found a small mistake in WorldWeather.xml; second and following self-defined calendar dates are not working (just a blank too much in "CalendarSelfDefined...").
Attached the corrected file from 1.2.100.100.
Thanks again for your excellent skin!
Cheers Alfred
