    couple of screenshots shown below:)
    Looks awsome. But I think there isn't enough space for fanart on the filmstrip view. Looks kind of odd to me. I would personally either give more space to the fanart or don't use it at all. Just my 2 cents of course. Keep up the good work!

    This is true, however, once you select a season and go to the next screen to see a listof episodes, the background will be the same, and you wil see more of it, so I think it will look pretty good when youa re actually using it - probably not the same effect with a screenshot.

    Just throwing around some ideas at the moment, fanart on the main selection page isn't supported by the tvseries plugin as of yet and it mightn't be feasible so they may need to be changed anyway.

    First of all - Nice job, the skin looks absolutely stunning

    BUT Will the users have the ability to change the 3d cover thing... i personality don't like it and would rather have a 2d view of the covers :)

    anyways - no matter what - this skin will be awesome! :D

    I personally disagree, I like the 3D view a lot... only I think the 3D effect would be more noticeable if there were a thin transparent frame around the cover and/or a semitransparent drop shadow behind. But anyway it's beautiful and can't wait to have it installed in my HTPC :)

    I love the 3D effect. But I hate the skins where they but transparent frames around the posters. It looks like something is missing, since the picture don't fill out the frame.
    But I guess there's a lot of different opinions on this stuff ;)

    I also hate thick frames, but maybe a thin one, or a thin opaque border would help separate the cover from the background. But, as everything in this world, it's just a matter of taste. Anyway it's already great the way it is now :)

    Request

    Looking real good so far, have been watching closely.

    Request: Ive been using the Music Video Database plugin lately as I have a bunch of music videos on my machine. Really unwieldly to use my videos to access them.

    Can we have an mvids.xml provided with this skin?

    Cheers.

    I think 1.38 is easier, it's a minor addition, judging by the lack of bugs, 1.39 is still a long way off. Ideally, the TuningParameters settings would be moved to MPE1, along with all the skins. Then any minor fixes could be updated quickly.

    I do not know why this xml was in my theme folders, it must have sneaked in some time ago (years?). I simply removed the file. The Latest Media Handler plugin seems to be working as expected. I've had no lock-ups.

    maybe setting loglevel to debug might pinpoint the difference between normal and stuck? Preferable with as much disabled as possible also try to see if anything is happening during stuck for the mediaportal process(resource monitor, disk activity, cpu usage, anything) maybe other programs competing for resouces?
