Monochrome (for those who like dark skins), updated... (16 Viewers)

[Darre]

The only problem I have with that is I have five different folders with movies - one for the kids, one for us etc. When I switch to any view other than shares all movies are listed with the IMDB info on the left side, and not just the movies in the current folder .

I manually edited the genres of my 300 movies(a real pain), so when I fire up 'genre' view I get comedy's in one 'folder' and action in another. You could sort your movies this way as well by creating genres called 'Kids', 'action' etc. The upside of this is you get way more info about the movie youre about too see, and you get to only click once to start the movie. The downside is genre thumbs doesn't work atm, but ive posted a bug report and hopefully it will get fixed =)

Lee O Negative is very Positive about this one. Low load on the system, no-nonsense but very good looking skin. Keep going P/R ! Thanks ..

I found a bug in your skin (well, it's actually a code problem that results in a stack overflow, but it's hard to fix); when you go in the IMDB pane of a movie and jump right right away, MP crashes.
That's because the skin tries to jump to the spin control for the albumart (ID 10), but it's disable so it jumps to the one at it's right (ID 11), which is disabled too so it tries the one at the right again ... and it's 10 again. So it loops forever.

I suggest going back to 6 on right from 11. Fixing the code would require keeping track of what controls we passed on, which is probably hard to do.

Is there a mySkype.xml for monochrome?

I've had that before and could never figure it out - thanks I'll look into it .

Not yet, but I'll have a look into it for ya . What version of MySkype are you using?

I think my post was a bit cryptic
The needed change is in dialogVideoInfo.xml

    <control>
      <description>disc select</description>
      <type>spincontrol</type>
      <id>11</id>
      <posX>776</posX>
      <posY>685</posY>
      <onup>6</onup>
      <ondown>2</ondown>
      <onleft>10</onleft>
      <onright>10</onright>
      <textcolor>ccffffff</textcolor>
      <buddycontrolid>100</buddycontrolid>
      <showrange>no</showrange>
    </control>

needs to be replaced by

    <control>
      <description>disc select</description>
      <type>spincontrol</type>
      <id>11</id>
      <posX>776</posX>
      <posY>685</posY>
      <onup>6</onup>
      <ondown>2</ondown>
      <onleft>10</onleft>
      <onright>6</onright>
      <textcolor>ccffffff</textcolor>
      <buddycontrolid>100</buddycontrolid>
      <showrange>no</showrange>
    </control>

When going right while both spins are disabled, it will go around & back ... visually it's like you couldn't go right at all (even though the code loops through all the controls).
If you understood what I meant in the first placed, well kudos to you !

I'm trying to figure out in MP's code what it would take to have an IMDB view but on shares. Or at least have it going on the IMDB page if the file has been matched when "clicking" on it.
It's probably not going to end up in the SVN though. We'll see.

it worked, I did understand what you meant . Regards your second idea - SVN or not I'll test it for ya, if you want.
I think this is a feature that has been missing from MP for a very very long time .

Can you (or anybody using MyFilms) try the attached files, if they are ok I'll include them in the next release.

Reptile, could you also export your logo rules and post them here?
Makes things a lot easier

Done, although it will probably cause more problems than help. These are the rules I use on my dev laptop. Open with notepad and edit file names and locations, then import into MP-TV-Series. PS: I've attached updated logos that will be included in the next release .

Yep, this definitely fixes the issues with the text overlapping in MyFilms, great update!

I especially like the additions you made to the List view. I'm wondering, could we get an extra XML for the FilmStrip view to see the Ratings/Description? Just a thought. I understand how some people might enjoy the "cleanliness" that Filmstrip offers, but personally, I'd love to see the description included as well.

Nice logos too, keep up the amazing work.

Amen to that! I've even tried to figure out a way to make my remote (MCE) send the F3 key instead of the click in the movies screens, but haven't got it to work. Isn't My Movies a plugin for MP? Shouldn't that be "easily" entered as an option?

Emph

Great Skin this is the best one to date.

Was wondering if you could add xml's for MyEmulators and for MyOrganizer. The other thing i was wondering was if you might include some work from this project ( https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/modified_slideshow_plugin-t30383.html ) It's a slideshow mod that gives you an osd for picture tag comments and properties. just a thought

Thanks keep up the outstanding work.
