ORIGINAL THREAD (OLD): About the X-Factor Skin (9 Viewers)

Cul8er,

Thank you for adding the fading in/out of the selection frame. This makes it look and feel a LOT better in my opinion.
THANKS!

Is there a way I can personally change the amount of frames, time or images it uses to generate the fadein/out effect? I would like to make it a liiiiitle bit smoother. But if this this is not possible by me myself, then I will stop bothering you with it..

Hi,

* List
* Small Thumbnails (I use the big thumbnail "wall" from release 191)
* Big Thumbnails (I use the new vertical thumb list)
* Filmstrip
Finally, what do you think about the attached images for Moving Pictures?

best regards
cul8er

Thats better,
Original Small Thumbnails are for me useless (to small icons)

Perhaps even try with just three banners, so that "box" is the same height as the bottom info? It's cool to have a wide banner view with that much fan art showing.

Emph

Hi cul8er,

Your Skin is with many difference the best I have ever test. It is elegant, professional, and very customizable. It is the one who makes me prefer the look of Mediaportal against Vista MCE. Thank you very much for your work.

It would we great for me if in My Videos, big icons screen, the icons could be bigger.

Finally can you help me how can I get the weather info in home screen?????? (I edit myself, the problem was I had not RSS Ticker Plugin installed)

Thanks and regards,

Hi vgallego65,

Thank you for your feedback I will look at the myVideo thumbs and see what I can do. Glad you solved the weather problem. I have updated the installation instructions to also include this.

best regards
cul8er

neat design, congrats on that!
i have a tiny problem on the radio tab, i'm using streams that i add in the RADIO section found in MP Configuration. However, i found out that in X-Factor, the genre is over the station name, making both impossible to read.

PS: and one more question:
-when i go to TV Series (filmstrip mode), the skin seems to refresh the covers everytime (takes 1-2 sec till i can see the six of them). I guess it's cache-related? Or it's the skin? However, I got proper hardware, so this is not the issue. (any other skin worked perfect, so i guess it's an x-factor thing)

Thanks for your help!
