MP-TVSeries-2.1.3318 (UAT) Build available (2 Viewers)

Hi,

This seems a nice plugin but I have 2 questions:

1) Does this plugin show a logo (or something) if the specified series/episode is subtitled? Either with internal subs in the container or external? If not, woud you consider implementing this functionality?

2) I can see that there are logos for 720p/1080p, what about for DVDRip's? Is there any logo or should we assume that if no 720p/1080p logo is present, the episode must be of lower resolution?

DVDRIP = XVID or DIVX

emphatic
Nice, thanks

One last thing though, is it possible to differentiate between internal and external subs? Cause normally, none of the internal subtitles are in my mother tongue and then I download some that are but those are external. And it would be nice to know, by browsing the series in the plugin, if I already downloaded subtitles in my mother tongue for that specific series/episode.

I knew that I just didn't knew there were XviD/DivX logos...

(I haven't really tested this plugin yet)

hmmm, it was never really instant. Any how, there is now fanart fading added thanks to fforde over at moving pictures. If you ask Pilehave to add a second image control (see release notes) then the skin will also support fading fanart as you transistion to different series or enter a series.

The Fanart fading may result in a perceived drop in performance, but the visual element makes up for it I think.

Hi!

Could you perhaps post the XML for backgrounds?

The code below still reveals the default background for a short period of time between transitions?

    <control>
      <description>Default Background</description>
      <type>image</type>
      <id>0</id>
      <posX>0</posX>
      <posY>0</posY>
      <width>1280</width>
      <height>720</height>
      <texture>tv_bg.png</texture>
	  <animation effect="fade" start="100" end="0" time="250">WindowClose</animation>
      <visible>!Control.IsVisible(1232)</visible>
    </control>

See: r410 - mptvseries - Google Code

It contains sample XML for two image controls that can be used for the fanart fading.

Is there a way to get MP-TVSeries to play ISOs?

So far I can't make that work.

Could you post it in your skin thread?

New test build uploaded v2.0.3296. I hope this to be the last test build before an official v2.1 Stable is released.

Can I make this SVN compatible with the 'old' tvseries.xml? I've edited my tvseries.xml for build 2379, but with this version my layout has become a mess. I'm using mediastream by pilehave, and with his tvseries.xml and skinsettings.xml it works, but the layout doesn't do it for me. I guess I don't understand the new workings of the skinsettings.xml, but I suck at editting xml. Took me three days to get MP to show me 5 rows of banners instead of pilehave's default three.


Edit: I've attached my before and after screens to show what I mean. The gui is set to listbanners, but I get this
I watch a lot of (anime) series that don't have posters, but they do have banners.

Edit2: Should have used wide banners ... I'm a dumbass. I'll leave the post for other dumbasses like me.

When we're talking about skins, is is hard to change the view so that i get two columns and three rows insted of 3 and 4, and then resize them to fit the screen. Doesn't look so good with those small pics when i only have a few series.

BTW i'm using Streamd MP skin...
