Can you provide some instructions psycho reptile? Is this done via the option 'dynamic filename'?

I'm really off-base here. If you could provide some precise instructions that would be great ...

I assume all is well by just using the default without further configuration?

I presume this is more of a plugin-related question to the My TVSeries plugin.

Psycho Reptile,

Unfortunately, you are now abusing too much of reflexion and light source in TV Guide. Now The top edge of each row is too white which does not give enough contrast with the title text (also white). The version of TV Guide 1.4 was an example of elegance, cleanness and readability (with 8 rows).
However I like that the selection is in Green. This is much visible than black although less shiny would be better (remembertext is white). Good point, Gfx problems when going up and down seem to have disappeared. Row used to get empty and Logo very tiny sometimes before coming back on the next move.
So I love your work but do not forget that its success comes from simplicity, elegance and good taste. Please leave fancy Gfx exercises for other skins.
Thanks again.

Hi, not sure if it was your intention but for TVSeries (MediaInfo) the font used for episode descriptions and Series description is super large and just doesn't look good. Any chance you can revert it to 1.4 size?

Cheers
Damien

ive just modified some xmls for the following plugins, your welcome to add them to the skin if you want them

MyMinesweeper
MySimon
MyConnect4

also made a small chang to the Sudoku skin and vertically centered the score board

Perfect. Thanks.
Now we need a "GamesMenu" (like WatchMenu, ListenMenu, ExtraMenu, and the new TVMenu)

@ Psycho Reptile
TvMenu works fine.
Thanks.

Title/List view

I just downloaded 1.5 and I really like it. I'm not sure what version I used to have. But I'm wondering if it's possible to get the old look in mymovies using the title-list view. Where the information and title of the movie is a bit bigger, and is located on the side instead of at the bottom of the screen. Could I replace some of the newer files with files from an older version?

Thanks Psycho Reptile for this great update

Here is something that i found in My Videos section in actors and genre view. There is a placeholder for movie information that is blank is those views (see attached pictures - you will understand )

Mkay, I seem to have hit the wall here. I'm currently editing the BasicHome, MusicMenu and WatchMenu. I didnt wan't to have all the buttons there, so I commented them out using <!-- -->, and it works fine (the buttons don't show). Since the buttons are aligned statically, I have tweaked <posX> perfectly, and all is fine. Atleast that's what I thought.

The problem is that, somehow, the white "selection"-square around each button, doesnt show around all the boxes, and it does not continiue on the left side of the screen if you jumped off the right side of the screen. Is there any places where I f.ex. need to set the amount of buttons active on each of those customizable menus, or am I missing something else here?

edit: this only happens when I'm navigating with the arrows. If I use the mouse, the white "selection"-square shows around the buttons I hoover my mouse over - even those who doesnt work when using the arrows.

jocke,

Make sure you updated your <onleft> and <onright> tags for each one of the buttons, meaning that if you did have 5 buttons and now have 4, make sure that button 4's onright now goes to button 1 and vice-versa.

Thanks, that did the trick. I knew it would be an easy solution

Change font14 to font12 in the TVSeries.xml

But I'm wondering if it's possible to get the old look in mymovies using the title-list view. Where the information and title of the movie is a bit bigger, and is located on the side instead of at the bottom of the screen. Could I replace some of the newer files with files from an older version?

Yes, replace the MesFilms.xml with an older version if you want. Just make sure to include any gfx files referenced in the xml.

Now we need a "GamesMenu"

Try the attached files, I'm working on including this in the next release

There is a placeholder for movie information that is blank is those views

Unfortunately there's not much I can do about tat becaude those views use the myvideoTitle.xml and I can't differenciate between which view you select, so I can't hide that info....
