The fonts are all really big...see the screengrab. Is there a way to change the font size?Screenshot.

ETA: OK, I did it again. I'm reading your font steps now
ETAA: For the record, blowing away the contents of the fonts folder did the trick :sorry:

Fixes to TV Settings

Boilermaker,

Whilst using yous excellent skin I found a couple of anomilies in the setting_tv.xml file which caused entries to be missed when scrolling up the list.

attached is a fixed version of the file.

Good catch MC. Fix will appear in the next release. I'm hoping it will be the "final" release, and i'm aiming for the end of the week. So please keep the bug (and fixes if you make them) coming. Then i'll start working with the SVN.

Thanks.

Bugs:

-My Music/Videos (shares) doesn't show up properly after restart in mceafo version. After entering Current Playlist and returning, they show up, but My Videos leave the 'working' animation on screen perpetually.

-My TVSeries screen is messed up in both versions.

-Unable to navigate away from page up and page down controls using the keyboard arrow keys or a remote in Icon view and Big Icon view (both versions). This bug is shared by Replicant, so if you fix it, please drop Psycho Reptile a PM.

Tweak request:

-I'd like for the top and bottom of the list views and both icon views to scroll to the bottom and top of the view (like Blue Two and most other skins) instead of into the left menu when navigating down at the bottom (show first page) and up on the top (show last).

Thanks for your work on the great skin(s)!

This one was fixed right after the last release when i got to use the skin as a user for a while (and will be included in the next release). To get it working, add the following lines to the filmstrip control (control starts at line 319) in references.xml:

		<background>blank.bmp</background>
		<backgroundx>491</backgroundx>
		<backgroundy>92</backgroundy>

My TVSeries screen is messed up in both versions.

I assume you are talking about MP-Tvseries and not the original plugin. The author has released several versions since the release of mp .2.2.0. Since i don't personally use the plugin i don't download every version looking for changes. Now that i know the plugin has changed its skin file, i'll take a look.

-Unable to navigate away from page up and page down controls using the keyboard arrow keys or a remote in Icon view and Big Icon view (both versions).

It took a bit, but i see what you are saying. I'll get this fixed. I also see that in mceafo the small icons area is too big, and the large icon area is too small. This will be fixed also.

I'd like for the top and bottom of the list views and both icon views to scroll to the bottom and top of the view (like Blue Two and most other skins) instead of into the left menu when navigating down at the bottom (show first page) and up on the top (show last)

I think i see what you are saying...remove the following code from the listcontrol control in common.facade.default.xml and tell me if now does what you want

<onup>2</onup>
<ondown>2</ondown>

If that's what you were referring to, its not a big change and makes more sense. It will take a while to catch it thru the entire skin. But i can include it in the next update.

You mean blank.png. Thanks!

Yeah. Sorry for being unclear.

The author has released several versions since the release of mp .2.2.0. [...] Now that i know the plugin has changed its skin file, i'll take a look.

He hasn't (recently). Yet, the controls are pretty much positioned on top of each other. No biggie for me, as I mashed up a working setup based on tweaking the placement from Replicant's version, but seeing as the plug-in is approaching 'near official' recognition, it would be nice if your skin supported it OOTB (so to speak).

It took a bit, but i see what you are saying.

Great, thanks! (It's such a hassle to get up from the couch to move the mouse when that happens... )

Yay! Muchos gracias!

You mean blank.png. Thanks!

yea it should be that...

its probably buried way back in the thread at this point, so i should add this to the first post. For MP-TV series, in the MP Display Control tab, make sure the automatically resize the height of the InfoPane... box if you are having problems with items overlapping. I moved around a lot so that the information fits in the basic template of this skin. I'll download the latest version and make sure its all still displaying as i intended.

I've found the problems with the sticking scroll buttons in the thumb panel...and i'll pass it along to Psycho in a pm in a little bit.

No, I read that message (#306), but I figured since I'd never heard of the 'infopane' box of which you speak - that I hadn't ticked it either. Could you elaborate?

Edit: Duh. In the plugin setup, of course. Sorry for being thick.

Still a bit cramped though (not the best use of the available space), so I'll keep my edit for now. If I get the time, I'll clean it up, do some testing, and post it to this thread.

Looking forward to the next version for 0.2.2.0 and thanks again!

This is one of My favorite MP skins but the download link doesn't seem to be working

 

[Boilermaker]

Its working, just incredibly slowly...it will eventually connect. If you still have problems after another try, send me a pm.

Sorry for the delay in the next update, i believe i have addressed most of the recent issues, i just haven't had any time to test. Hoping to get a few hours over the weekend. I also intend to include some new xml for plugins that have been updated.
