AW: **SKIN PREVIEW** a new skin called: Titan

Very nice work! Tho I think I like the dark blue from Avalon a bit more than the light blue. =)

One word: "Themes". @ncoH - please offer at least one color theme to show us how it's done ;-)

This is a selfish plug for themes since I created the feature ;-)

I think they have allready add some themes for this skin: https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/threads/skin-preview-a-new-skin-called-titan.105479/page-10

Also in the next page some things are said about thems..

So still "very promising"?

 

[powermarcel10]

I say "yes, very promising". I was a bit worried because I didn't see any activity hear for a month now.. But maybe the team is very busy behind the scenes, don't know.. I really hope to see a release soon!!!! They where waiting because they had focussed on MayaHD and AvallonHD.. They have released new stable versions of that ones for a while ago now.. So I think we will see some more details for Titan soon.. We have to wait!!!

I think a few of us have been waiting a long time for this, thankfully these devs have history of top work which means I am happy using Avalon till this skin is released oh and there's also eve which kind of looks like an iPad Titan app

 

[powermarcel10]

Yeah, using Avallon or Avallonis is not punishment at all! Only Titan will bring my HTPC to an higher level!

I have offered to help with creating new skinfiles for the bit smaller plugins like Radiotime, Rockstar, Updatecontrol, myEmulators2 etc.. Most plugins like TVseries, MovingPictures, Infoservice, Onlinvevideos, etc.. Will be supported by default. When the core is ready I will get acces to the SVN and will do my best for all of you guys!

Indeed its been a while but we are working hard to get Titan ready for future MP versions as well. The new basichome takes some time to code and we even aksed for some small new skin features in MP to get Titan exactly as we want.
Here are some new images

Thanks for the update Joostzilla!

Looking nice.. The basichomescreen is realy different, I'm really curious how it works. Maybe a small Youtube video would be nice! You said: "we are working hard to get Titan ready for future MP versions as well" So you mean Titan will be compatible with MP 1.2.3 and also with MP 1.3.0?
Or can we only expect a release of Titan after releasing the next version of MP. (MP 1.3.0 beta??)

For what I have seen I have 2 small requests:

-Rounded covers
-Weather animation in the right upper corner like with Avallon.

Good luck!

EDIT: Could you also make a screenshot of how the submenu in basichome looks? Thanks!

I added the screenshot of the submenu.
The basichome works quite straightforward. You just go from one item to the next. When there is latest media available it will appear automatically. When a submenu is available it will appear when one presses the menu item. Users can enter a second page when scrolling of screen (left/right). On the second page there is room for additional plugins.

About the rounded corners on posters: Since the poster are placed inside a rounded corner panel its nicer (imho) to have squared corners.

Wow - this skin is really looking fantastic - I love the crisp and colourful layout of basic home!
Will the tiles for Movies/Series/Music etc be dynamic? ie. Will they use fanart handler to cycle through the downloaded fanart?
