Re: Maya: Beta release 06-02-10

Klopt het dat sommige items erg klein zijn? Is dit bewust gedaan?
Laat nog eens wat meer creativiteit los op ons basichome. We staan open voor verbetering. Ik zoek nog naar een meer smoothe manier van animeren in ons huidige menu.
Misschien iets minder radicaal als je nu gedaan hebt. :D

Is it intended that some menu items are incredibly small??
Please fiddle some more with our basichome just to see what comes out. We like enhancements alot. And our current menu could be a bit more smooth. Will you give it a try.
Perhaps a bit less radical as you did with this xml. :D

Thanks for translating, but I don't mind keeping it in english! (saves you time to make more maya goodies)

But I should've posted some more things in my previous post. I altered a bit more than only a new basichome.xml will show. I turned Maya a bit more black, because I like black. I added all of the necessary files in the attached RAR file. There are also two printscreens to show what Basichome and myMusicPlayingNow should (kinda) look like.

The less radical part is going to be a problem though :D

Edit: perhaps it's also a problem that I don't use a very ideal resolution. I use a samsung 22" LCD monitor, with a native res. of 1680x1050 (16:10). Maybe on a true 16:9 it might not work out very well...

I absolutely LOVE this skin, it instantly became my day to day one when I first installed it. However it's missing one basic thing, and that's the time on most screens. I really would love it to have the time on the home screen and, well, pretty much all of them, in the way that Blue Wide does. It's there for easy glancing at pretty much everywhere.

If it'd just have that it'd be perfect :)

    Hi folks, great skin! My new favourite, however. When I go to the Weather section I get this:

    weather1.jpg


    and it just stays there with the #maya.weather etc etc until I hit 'escape' on my keyboard, go back to the main menu then go back into Weather again, and everything returns to how it should look:

    weather2.jpg


    I am on Windows 7 64bit, fresh install of MediaPortalSetup_1.1.0_RC-1_rev25080.exe (RC1).

    Any ideas as to why its displaying all those characters after the #maya.weather ?
    Many thanks in advance for your help.

    Download the latest plugin from Downloads - mamp2 - Project Hosting on Google Code this will fix the issue :)

    Hi,

    Just a quick one, and no screenshot I am afraid.

    In the EPG, if I move focus to a program that is set to record (highlighted in red), then a red dot should be shown by the program description. Unfortunately this is too high, and is 'under' the EPG itself.

    This is at a resolution of 1680 x 1050, and using the latest SVN.

    Please let me know if you cannot reproduce this or need a screenshot.

    Best wishes,

    Mark

    16:10 resolution, this skin I believe is designed for 16:9.
    In 16:10 you will get differences in almost all skins. Skinning for both aspect ratios can only be achieved by start skinning from a 16:10 aspect from the start because 16:9 (from my experience, and it also seems logical) will then scale correct (although will have a little bit more room around elements).

    I see in the mytvguide.xml this code relating to recording pins:

    Code:
    <control>
    	<description>record pin</description>
    	<type>image</type>
    	<id>31</id>
    	<posX>-2000</posX>
    	<texture>tvguide_record_button.png</texture>
    	<visible>no</visible>
    </control>
    	
    <control>
    	<description>record pin</description>
    	<type>image</type>
    	<id>1</id>
    	<posX>413</posX>
    	<posY>549</posY>
    	<fixedheight>yes</fixedheight>
    	<height>39</height>
    	<texture>#maya.tvguide.recpin</texture>
    	<keepaspectratio>yes</keepaspectratio>
    	<animation effect="fade" time="800">WindowOpen</animation>
    	<animation effect="fade" time="300">WindowClose</animation>
    </control>

    Obviously the first control never shows as posX = -2000

    The second control I believe is using the Maya BasicHome plugin, I believe, to show the recording pins. However, I have the latest plugin from svn and the pins never show for me in the TV Guide section of Mediaportal.

    Okay, I will check this in windowed mode forcing the window size to the correct aspect ratio, and see if the problem is still there.
