Looks great, downloading now. +1 on the request for TV-Series though, as I mainly use that plugin.

In short: Unless your skin supports TV-series and MovingPictures, you're not gonna get much testing on productive environments

It looks like and I started already adding support for TV Series.

Looks very promising. I would like to test, but I'm on 1.12. Any future support for this? One feature request: At least 10 row EPG! So I have all dutch channels in one view!

I will not add support for older versions, but you can try always this version: there are some additions done for the TV Guide, Radio and a new layout is added. This will normally not have a big impact on older versions.

For the moment only 8 rows are supported but will have a look or 10 rows is also feasible

Support for TV Series is added and the latest version of the skin can be downloaded from the repository.

Enjoy

Ok, l will try and see if it works!

Ok, I tried it for 10 minutes. Looks very nice!

Few things I have noticed:
When I am in Moving Pictures and the info of the movie is displayed, it is not scrolling, especially if the discription is longer than one page. I also would make the info more
opague, same as the list (using list view).
And of course the missing support of many plugins, but that I'm sure will be added in the future But the basics are very nice indeed.

I also would like a home screen much like black glass nova. Now it is almost the same, but instead of radio and video's I would use Mov Pic and Tv series.

Very nice skin. Simple and intuitive just I like it.

For basic needs is perfect, but if you extend support for more plug-ins will be great.

Great skin.

Seems just what I need.

I am pretty new to MP though so still getting the hang of things.

Many thanks

There is no seperated menu editor included in this skin, but you can change via MediaPortal Configuration-->Plugins the items that you want to have in de home and plugins menu. (Here you can also disable plugins).

Remark: items in the BasicHome menu are fixed and cannot be changed.

Thanks for the reply!

I have done that - works great. Also disabled topbar since I prefer going straight to the main menu.
