Really nice, best 16:9 for Mediaportal

Thanks for the great skin Psycho. A back arrow to get to previous screens would be great. BTW, this skin is a dead ringer for Meedio"s(is that a bad word here?) HDeeTV theme. Thanks for your hard work

Finally, I've got some time to test skin. Now it's useful, only some perfectionism changed I'll suggest:
1. Make it possible with remote control everything what is possible with mouse. For example, if I start some video, and pres Esc on remote control, there is no way to go back on my still playing video (but I can click with the mouse on video window). Arrow keys and Enter should can do that.
2. In Show OSD, it's not possible to use all arrows keys(up and down) to reach options, only left and right (playing video OSD works strange, test it)
3. Same problems in TV OSD with arrows keys (it's relative hard to explane, just try it and you'll figure out)
4. You can better use space for OSD controls, not place everything on left side
5. EPG, hmmm I haven't seen any nice EPG so far, colors can be better
6. In TV home screen, live TV window is relative small and space on the right it's big and empty. Maybe it's empty just in my country because I'm using Web EPG? Progress bar doesn't show the correct time, until get full screen and hit ESC. What is the little lines represent? See first screenshot
7. Mini EPG doesn't show TV logo and please remove gray background or make it more transparent (second SS). Mini EPG doesn't work right in many way... When you try, you'll see.
8. TV home screen shows Timeshifting is looks like is off even it's not, and if click on it you turn off TS
9. Skip step doesn't show at right place see 3. SS
10. In screen calibratin controls don't move together with graphics 4. SS

No more :) for now

Thanks, Psycho Reptile for accepting suggestions and hard work to make very nice skin.

Zeljko

P.S.
Don't hate me for all this suggestion/bugs :)

Don't hate us!!! ; )

Hi to every Replicant skin user

I'm agree with Zeljko ... Psycho must HATE US!!!! But Psycho can take his time to repair those minor bugs, cause nobody is perfect, and you can be sure your are doing it very very well. I wish we could help you some other way.

:p

    0.3.5 uploaded to repository...

    Changes:

    - Support for MP-TVSeries (and intergrated into My Videos/Shares - get the plugin)
    - Fixed track suggestions bug.
    - Fixed minor aligment problems in EPG.
    - Fixed messages appearing overlapped in OSD topbar.
    - Added back button.
    - Added ability to navigate to video preview window using keyboard/remote.
    - Fix limited left-right navigation in OSD.
    - Loads of other stuff that I can't remember.

    Notes:
    I've never seen more than 3 suggestions from MP in the suggested songs lists, no matter how long I make the listcontrols?
    Alignment is now being tested on a 37" widescreen LCD ;-)

    I've made a lot of changes in the last few days, thanks for all the bug reports and suggestions. More fixes are still needed, but I can't check all operations - let me know how you get on.

    Also I can't gaurentee that my changes have all been "improvements", remember this is still a beta release - development is ongoing ;-) If I've missed anything let me know...

    Anyway, a new TV Series plugin is in progress
    Support added.

    absolutely definitve skin :)

    1) i have an issue with meteo visualization on bottom part.. i see from your screenshot that there should be meteo summary, but i haven't :\

    2) i have an issue with font size in scrolling textboxes, they remain bigger than rest of menù even if they don't have focus after moving in the home
    1) This is probably plugin or MP related, if an internet connection is not connected the overlay won't show (it's happened to me on occasion).
    2) Fixed.

    3 - EPG have some minor aligment proglems (see "misaligment" image), that make TV titles boxes be hidden under program titles boxes.
    4 - Audio / filters messages appear over box header on playing video (see "overlayed" image). This messages appear when changing audio channel pressing the "A" key.

    To finish, do not forget to include the font file in you compressed file with the skin, Psycho or newbies users could not enjoy correctly with your nice skin.
    3 - Fixed I hope, looks ok on my tv (res @ 1360x768)
    4 - Should be fixed but I can't be sure on all messages.
    To finish - it's now included, thanx for pointing that out.

    but at the moment it is not possible to jump from a screen back to the last screen without using the keyboard (ESC) is it possible to add a icon to jump back to the last screen so that you dont need to change from mouse to keyboard???

    A back arrow to get to previous screens would be great.
    @tvkind,starman - done, test it.

    BTW, this skin is a dead ringer for Meedio"s(is that a bad word here?) HDeeTV theme.
    When I used to use meedio that was my skin, that's why I started working on an MP version :)

    1. Make it possible with remote control everything what is possible with mouse. For example, if I start some video, and pres Esc on remote control, there is no way to go back on my still playing video (but I can click with the mouse on video window). Arrow keys and Enter should can do that.
    2. In Show OSD, it's not possible to use all arrows keys(up and down) to reach options, only left and right (playing video OSD works strange, test it)
    3. Same problems in TV OSD with arrows keys (it's relative hard to explane, just try it and you'll figure out)
    4. You can better use space for OSD controls, not place everything on left side
    5. EPG, hmmm I haven't seen any nice EPG so far, colors can be better
    6. In TV home screen, live TV window is relative small and space on the right it's big and empty. Maybe it's empty just in my country because I'm using Web EPG? Progress bar doesn't show the correct time, until get full screen and hit ESC. What is the little lines represent? See first screenshot
    7. Mini EPG doesn't show TV logo and please remove gray background or make it more transparent (second SS). Mini EPG doesn't work right in many way... When you try, you'll see.
    8. TV home screen shows Timeshifting is looks like is off even it's not, and if click on it you turn off TS
    9. Skip step doesn't show at right place see 3. SS
    10. In screen calibratin controls don't move together with graphics 4. SS
    1. Most should now be covered.
    2/3. Should be better.
    4. Could you make some suggestions (images maybe).
    5. Went back to the old colours.
    6. You're missing a lot of info in that screen, info is displayed from the tvguide.xml file - all ok on my side... I'll look into the progress bar thing, does it happen with all skins?
    9. Should be fixed.
    10. I'll look into that, it's probably because I've grouped the controls...

    Thanks everybody ;-)

    And, thanks again !

    A short question, though :

    Haven´t tried out 0.3.5, but in 0.3.4 (and earlier), in the "Now Playing" part, there are the "Tracks with similar tags" (or so) and the "Hits from this album". I am able to hover over them, but when I press play nothing happens. Is it just me, or is this not functional (yet) ?

    mcbelly (still amazed) ;-)

    Ahh, life is good now, a back arrow!!! Thanks for the new version Psycho. The only problem I've noticed is in the my radio screen, would it be possible to add the music controls? Once a radio station is started there is no way to stop the music in that screen. I have been going to the my music screen and stopping the radio music from there. This is now my everyday skin!!

    One request, is it possible to use the photo icon set originally used on the HDeeTV meedio theme, like on this picture
    I don't think he can use the exact icon, but can make one a lot like it. The hdteev author basically posted he didn't give anybody permission to use his graphics. Sounds like he wouldn't even if asked.
