does this mean that using ajp8164 build alredy improves maya? Or is it planned that maya will use some of his changes?

Using the ajp8164 build has no impact on Maya for now. But, the plan is to use his improvements on a longer run. Right now we have some tricks up the sleeve for later use

Hi pilehave, first for this nice new skin.
Just tested it and wanted to say that the graphics are really nice and clean, used fonts very good readable.
BUT: Changing a screen is way to slow, the use of mouse is nearly impossible (flickering controls up to disappearing controls). This makes it atm unusable for PC- and Touchscreen users.
Fanart handling in MovingPictures and TVSeries not optimal.
I think if you improve those issues that skin will be a new star in skin heaven

The skin is fantastic!!! Well done.

Only one question: Where do I get this weather background image(s) from which is shown in your preview pic. I only see a blue background when I open the weather info view for one day.

Thank you for a wonderful skin. Three major issues here:

1. Going to full screen tv and back turns the blue background color in the skin black. Only restart of MP solves it.
2. Basic home menu items are in english - even though Danish is selected in configuration.
3. Looks like the info service isn't working properly. Getting no graphics in weather section - instead just shows tags like #info.weather.... something.

This will definately be the skin I am gonna use once the initial hiccups are gone - thanks again!

Kind regards langben, Denmark.

After all, this is HTPC software, so mouse users should
a) stick to skins that supports mouse or
b) get a remote



And Fanart mods should start to appear any day now. (No, not from me).

Lol. Cant wait to see them.
Did you know that the movie info panel in movingpictures detail screen can be switched from right to left in realtime? Use left and right button on remote.

Well, I think very different about this, because I know there are some thousands of users out there using PC only without connection to TV or using Tochscreens (yes, those become slowly but surely more and more). I also followed a lot of discussions about that theme and there is definitely a need for mouse support.
And unfortunately it´s not done with buying a remote, you also need a computer which supports at least X10.
I would like to see this really nice skin available and usable for all users
