For a while now, I've been having the problem that after I have watched a show and I return to the series screen, the background and banners are gone. I have to go back to the home screen and click on series again for the images to return. Sometimes Media Portal even crashes when I return to the series screen. Does anybody else have this problem too?

Yes. Same thing here.

I have also the same problems (except the crashing). Is this an error in the monochrome skin or does it has something to do with the my series plugin?

That would be my question too. I did see that with the release of 1.0 the StreamedMP skin also has problems when returning from an episode. Maybe it's a MediaPortal problemn.
Check this thread: StreamedMP

I tried to test it but my database was corrupted. So I deleted my database and installed the newest version of the plugin (svn build). Then I tested it and everything is working fine. So I don't know if the problem was skin related or not. But I think it wasn't.

For everyone that has this problem, just install the newest svn version. You can find it here: https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/my-tvseries-162/

Is there no update for the 1.0 Final release?
The skin is still working but is saying its an old release everytime you are starting MP. Its a little bit annoying...

Best regards!

Is it possible to change position of the weather info on the basic home screen?

This is possible. I assume you use latest (or at least some RC-version) of Mediaportal with Monochrome 2.4. And that you use the weather-in-basichome function that comes with the RSS-ticker. Well, open your basichome.xml, and scroll down to the end, where you will find <!-- RSS Stuff -->. There you will find various parameters, for weather you have to edit: Weather image, location, Temperature and condition. Just editting PosX/PosY will do the trick.

Thank you very much, this did work. In the end of basichome.xml it was linked to "common.rss.xml" and this file was the one who tells where to put all the weather info. As im using a touch screen i want to have the topbar to be Always visible, and thats why i want to move the weather info!
(this was when using the RC4 version, below i have been updated the MP to 1.0)

Furthermore: anyone encountered any incompatability problems with Monochrome and 1.0? I had to revert myweather.xml from RC4 to be able to use the weather display in the Basic Home screen, didn't encounter any other problems just yet.

Yes i do... I have since yesterday updated MP to the final 1.0 release and it works fine except the weather info not displaying correctly on the basic home screen and its telling me its an outdated skin to use with the 1.0 version.

That is easy to fix. Just update the version number in references.xml to 1.0.0.0

Pressing the STOP button from within a player doesn't work -- I use my remote, instead.

Is it possible to have different backgrounds in GameMenu.xml depending on what game is selected? Like a fan-art for the game..

<controls>
<import>common.time.xml</import>
<control>
<description>BG</description>
<type>image</type>
<id>1</id>
<width>1366</width>
<height>768</height>
<texture>background.png</texture>
</control>

I want to have that texture backtround to be something like: <texture>#id.png</texture>
then depending on which ID you have selected it will show selected background?
