Yeah, each logo\formatting rule needs to be defined on a seperate line.

Well, me again.

I get some weird "watched/unwatched" icons. When i used the previous version of the plugin (pre-tvseriessettings.xml) I did see these X'd eye-icons on some of my shows, but never investigated why. But now they're out of control kinda. See attached screenshot. I've circled the "loose" ones in red, but as you can see, they're consistant with the one on the placeholder on top of the cover as well.

Does this X mean that the show's not longer running? Or is it some kind of bug?

Are you using the newest TV-series version? Because watched/unwatched flag was introduced in last version or so...in TVSeries.dummy.xml a couple of new dummy labels was also introduced.

I downloaded the latest version of Mediastream (released yesterday) and only did some tweaking on references.xml and added the new .xml's posted here since. But these things got introduced with the new .dll/rules, and as I don't see them while using StreamedMP (for comparison) I can only think it's something with the new rules in your .xml.

They don't show up on every show, just on some of them, "Band of Brothers", "Into The West", "Lipstick On Your Collar" for example. Don't know what sets them apart from my other shows. Pehaps it's because they are considered "mini-series"? Do you have some dummy icon for that?

Hi, firstly thanks for the update to your great skin I can confirm the strange crosses too in tvseries screens. For me they appear when viewing 'special' seasons ie christmas specials. The only thing different I can think for these is that I usually have to manually import the specials as they're not automatically recognised.

Thanks

Just to test it I manually made two avi-files (well, text-files really) named Into.The.West.S01E01.mp3.divx.avi and Into.The.West.S01E02.mp3.divx.avi

Obviously this will not allow MediaInfo.dll to scan them, but they do get imported and I get the details from thetvdb.com added. I don't have blue crosses, but I'll tell you what they mean:

There are two dummy labels
- Dummy Label for Series/Season/Episode Watched Flag
- Dummy Label for Series/Season/Episode being Available

The reason for three blue crosses are, that there is one for poster view, one for banner view and one for episode view. They're placed where they should be, but of course the banner or episode ones should be hidden in poster-view

Does watched/unwatched work on other series? Are you using the modified Core.dll posted in the TV-Series thread? I'm not, but perhaps that's irrelevant. How about the TV-series log, does that tell you anything?

 

[pilehave]

As far as I can tell, the problem arises when you are in series or season view, and focus is on a series/season without any locally available episodes (removable drive, or if you have downloaded episodes that you dont have on your local drive).

I'll fix it, but can you please confirm that this is the scenario?

I'm trying atm to start this skin with MP but I'm not sure what's up. It's already taking 5 minutes to start on a very fast system and generating a humonguos form of cache (By now it's 500MB).
Installed your latest files from the startpost. Nothing yet in mediaportal.log or error cause MP hasn't started yet and I'm thinking it never will
Monocrhome and streamedMP are both fine. Running 1.0 final no svn, latest tvseries and moving pictures

----------

The cache has empty images right after loading my tv channel logos. Maybe something up with this installation then althouhg it doesn't seem like it, blue3 works ok too.

----------

Bad download I suppose, redowned it and now it's ok. weird

a big thanx for this excellent skin!

it's possible to change the image at the startup?
it's program_bg.jpg but i don't found the right xml file.

bye
