    Yhoogi, you can set the size (and the location) of the coverart yourself.

    So far I did some quick adaptation for the list view. (see pics)
    What I couldn't find in the xmls are the parameters for the list items: Number of lines, positioning, font size, etc.

    Where are they stored?

    Cheers & Thanks,

    number of lines is automatically determined by the height of your list item. They may be defined in some common.facade.xml
    Otherwise it will be defined in the references.xml. it will be of type listcontrol.

    After carefully verifiying what have been done in the other list types (banners and filmstrip) I added to the specific list control the posy and height properties and now it is kept in the overlay area.

    In case somebody is interested, I have attached the modifications. As Overlay the MovingPictures png is used which is in StreamedMP already available.

    Iwerndly, 2 questions:
    • Seems like the Main view and the ep view is using the same list configuration. Is it possible to split these so in the ep view a different configuration (e.g. more/less list items) can be achieved?
    • Is it possible to define a default background for items w/o fanart?



    Cheers,

    Seems like there is still an issue with the " ' " in the file manager: I got also with the newest version the aforementioned error message.

    Do you know where the apostrophe was?
    Genre, description, series name, group name etc?

    One other suggestion: I have quite a list of unrecognised files. If possible I would recommend to store in the episodes window of the file manager the last selected series. Its getting a litte tiresome if you have to make several edits for a specific series and have to seach and select this series for each ep again

    Good idea, I'll do that for 2.0.7
    Have you tried using the new manager?

    No you can't really separate them the way it has been set up at the moment. It is the main reason I went with the larger default view rather than the fanart centric view. Other than it also being my personal preference :)

    With the default background, you already have the skin element there, you just need to put in a texture property
    e.g.
    <texture>BG_Anime.jpg</texture> -- Raytestrak's default background for Mediastream
    It is the first control under BACKGROUNDS.

    Your skin looks good, it is alright for me to include in the distribution/source?
    Did you modify all the skins in the attached file?

    Both occurences had the " ' " either in the directory or in the file name

    I used the file manager as these were files from its list and had to be manually allocated. Is there another way now for unrecognised (and therefore unallocated) files?

    All files attached are the one changed.
    Feel free to use it to your liking.

    I attached my current version with even less lines, but I am currently stuck with the list item: It did not go to the center and moves forward but is stuck either on the 2nd line from top (when moving down) or 2nd line from bottom (when coming back from end of the list) - see also attached pic.
    Seems like there is a default value somewhere which prohibts going below 3 lines from the border.

    Any help would be appreciated

    Cheers

    Ah ok, will do for 2.0.7

    Yup, you can just double click on an episode and assign files from there. See screen shots

    I'll take a look a bit later and see what I can find.

    Just a quick question when I do the run import command and look in the mediaportal.log
    2009-06-11 18:06:08.733625 [Info.][29]: AddCommand key: AniDBCommand_GetEpisodeInfo_6017_7
    2009-06-11 18:06:08.733625 [Info.][29]: Searching for episode info: 6017 - 8
    does that mean that it's found the episode on my HD and mapped it or it's adding a placeholder for it in the database?

    Yes wherever you see "Searching for episode info" it means it has identified that you may have a missing episode, and will create a placeholder episode for a file later.

    It monochrome it looks like this (red items are missing)

    I also need to change the icon to indicate that is unavailable.

    You can turn off the option in the config (Download Episodes).
    Personally I use the option to download subbed episodes, so I can see which episodes are missing from my collection.
