Monochrome (for those who like dark skins), updated... (15 Viewers)

[rekenaar]

When I am wathing recorded TV and I press the i-button, I get a nice screen with some descriptions and some controls like pause, stop, etc. Also a TV logo. Is this logo supposed to be the logo of the recorded TV that I am watching or the logo of the last channel that the TV was tuned to?

I am currently seeing the last TV channel logo, but I think it would make more sense to see the recorded TV logo?

Hi Rekenaar, the texture that is displayed on the TV OSD is <texture>#TV.View.thumb</texture>, I suppose it is whatever MP decides to use as the thumb. I don't know if this could be solved in the MP code or the skin...

How does it look in other skins, B2 for example?

 

[rekenaar]

B2-wide shows the correct logo for the recorded TV.

I have a fix for you problem. Just go to the Plugin Configuration ...then click on "Import Setting" and after that on "Online Data Sync". There you have the possibility to make a check on "Download Episode Snapshots".

After that it must work again...if not i didn't know whats your problem, because at my htpc it work.

Thanks, that fixed my problem. Somebody just sneeked this little checkbox into the newer version.

@mmesh,

You need latest _svn_ of TV-Series. Grab it in the tv-series section.

Thanks Stokkes and Psycho Reptile!

That solve it.
I didn't look hard enough through this thread. I apologize. :sorry:

About the fact the selection comes back on the first item; I (finally, I know, I was busy) debugged it and figured out where the problem was;
it's a MP problem, the selectedIndex property I set on a list is read-only on the large / small icon view. I'm trying to figure out how this view works (MP code) and I'll suggest a fix to be included in the MP SVN asap.

Edit:
got a fix, it now works (here ) now I need to find a way to submit the changes given I don't have author access to MP's sources.

The patch has been applied in MP this morning - so it should surface in the next MP SVN build.
Thanks to Inker who has contacts to expedite these kind of things!

Well, may be that using the same Inker contacts, someone can solve also this skin engine bug: https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/some_bugs_into_skinning_engine-t33083.html

@ stefancrs, I've uploaded a new version this morning (waiting on approval), that has a lot of reworked tv xmls. I got the USB-stick, but it's a bitch trying to get a half decent signal. I may still need to update the tv screens, it's helpful if peeps post screenshots running 0.9 and mentioning the res you run .

Will give it a try ASAP (which, if I'm lucky, will be tomorrow, but most likely it will be after christmas), and if there still are any issues I will post my 1280x720 screenshots

Ok, this took way longer than I anticipated, but yesterday I finally got around to install the latest version (which by now was 1.0, not 0.9) of Monochrome and all TV screens seems to present themselves in a nice and proper manner, thank you so much! I haven't spotted any issues with them yet!

The only things I would be able to criticize in any way would be that 1) I think I preferred the old font, but if I remember correctly, one would be able to choose later? and 2) The red dot and "recording" text, when recording TV, is a bit too much "in your face", imho. Just a smaller dot up in the corner and the text "rec." would probably be sufficient. OTOH I'm using Monochrome on a very big screen (approx 80-90" most of the time, but sometimes I use the entire projector screen, which is 110"), so maybe it's just me

Again, thank you for this awesome skin!

[Stokkes]

I don't think this skin was meant to be used with fan art
