Hello,

why is there no background image in this skin? The background is only black.

There is a mistake in one skin file (MesFilms.common.window.xml) change :

<window>
  <controls>
    <control>
      <description>BG</description>
      <type>image</type>
      <id>1</id>
      <width>1366</width>
      <height>768</height>
      <texture>background[B]4[/B].png</texture>
    </control>

by

<window>
  <controls>
    <control>
      <description>BG</description>
      <type>image</type>
      <id>1</id>
      <width>1366</width>
      <height>768</height>
      <texture>background[B]5[/B].png</texture>
    </control>

I have tried clearing the cache, re-installing MP, Xface, and MyFilms. Nothing has fixed this. And I am running at 1280x720 resolution so this shouldn't be the problem. As other have reported, filmstrip works fine in the built-in My Movies.

I went back to a fresh install of MP RC1, installed the SVN, and then installed MyFilms 4.5. I tried running at both 1920x1080 and 1280x720 and both have the same problem - cutting off the film cover when using Xface. It works fine using either Monochrome or Indigo.

This is pointing to a problem with the Xface version of MyFilms. It doesn't seem to be related to resolution.

Fix for 1024 x 768

Hi,
fix for plasma screen 1024 x 768:
1.replace MesFilms.xml file in Xface skin folder
2.delete the MP cache folder and try...

If DVD cover does not fully fill the box, edit file MesFilms.xml and change this values:

<description>Filmstrip view</description>
          <type>filmstrip</type>
          <posX>90</posX>
          <width>1250</width>
          <onup>6</onup>
	  <keepaspectratio>no</keepaspectratio>
          <thumbHeight>[COLOR="#ff0000"]223[/COLOR]</thumbHeight>
		  <thumbWidth>[COLOR="#ff0000"]160[/COLOR]</thumbWidth>

delete the MP cache folder and try...
repeat procedure till DVD cover is centered

This fix is for Xface skin 1.5 and MyMovies 4.5
Changing these values helps in other resolutions and skins,
keepaspectratio must be set to NO!
