    cascius, fancy sharing those PSDs? I've got the A656, I think I might like to mod Monochrome to match the rose border - those colour work well together ;)

    The logos in TVSeries shown here http://jossan.visse.nu/~spuck/mediastream/tvseries/tvseries_eps_logos.jpg work wonderfully, very simple but very effective. I'm looking forward to Moving Pictures getting logo support.

    This skin just looks better and better everytime you update. Nice job guys.

    I tried out plex 0.7 for a couple of days this week and I have to say the look and response of the program is excellent. There are 3 major problems for me though:
    • Navigation of the skin by remote is not intuitive - I think this may be because you have to setup up the library and sources within the media centre itself.
    • No Link to TVServer (Though unified PVR interface is in development).
    • Lack of codec support - though I can see why this isn't suitable in xbmc/plex itself.

    Bringing such a great look to MediaPortal is an excellent way of working.

    This looks fantastic! I'm playing with something similar as well, but adapted to my needs and my TV. I've got a Samsung LN52A650 with the red and black border and I'm making a matching skin.

    Here are some cute little thumbs (photoshop for now):





    If it's ok with you, I'd like to maybe create a red/black color scheme for your skin. Well, once it's done of course. ;-)

    I have the Samsung LE40A656 and this mod would be wonderful!

    :eek:

    Where can I get my hands on that backdrop?

    What sucks in the skin engine btw is that text always wants to be on top, so no way to fade the text at the top\bottom :(

    I've seen menu backgrounds that overlay text... there should be a way to do it... and do a transparency fade to cover the top and bottom.

    Decided to try installing x64 v1.33 after seeing this post. I had x86 1.32 installed. Installed x64 first without deleting the x86 version to check it was working. Then deleted x86 version. Then reinstalled x64 as it didn't like it. Anyway streamedMP is working perfectly for me.
