I love the skin
But can we have the scrolley text thingo down the bottom right where it puts filenames and such to be bigger (currently is has a small amount of char space and it scrolls like a ticker with chars that dont fit popping up one end and disappearing the other and than bouncing back.)
I personally loath tickers. The box should be given more space to allow longer titles of files.

Btw seems as this isnt my htpc and that room is currently in use, I am only going by memory. I think the windows effected are My Music and maybe My Videos

    Here's a bug:

    Pressing DVD Menu while playing an AVI brings up a menu where you can choose aspect ratio. However when you select this instead of taking you to a screen where you can choose the aspect ration, it dumps you all the way back to the main menu.

    Razor Skin and Yahoo Video on RC3

    To Raven or anyone:

    I DO NOT have a problem getting the stream to work. BUT when I click to get the TOP or LATEST video, the listing of the available videos will not appear, although I can RIGHT-CLICK to bring up a prompt window and it will show me the name and title of the videos. But that's a bit lame=) I can click on the INVISIBLE listing and it will play the videos just fine.

    This problem ONLY occurs in the new RAZOR skin that is found in version RC3.

    Any help would be appreciated! Thank you :D

    Below is the screenshot. Notice that when I RIGHT-CLICK on the invisible playlist, it pop-up the "Favorites" window, and tells me the name of what I right-clicked on. As you can obviously see, the playlist is invisible when use with the Razor skin in RC3.

    big icons too

    I too have the problem with the big icons.
    The delete of these files does help
    <mp_folder>\skin\Razor\packedgfx2.xml
    <mp_folder>\skin\Razor\packedgfx20.png
    <mp_folder>\skin\Razor\packedgfx21.png
    <mp_folder>\skin\Razor\packedgfx22.png
    <mp_folder>\skin\Razor\packedgfx23.png

    I have this problem after update to rc3.
    Can you look at this please?

    Hi!

    As mentioned before: I like this skin very much :D
    Now I've found two "bugs":

    first:
    If the "page descritpion" is too long and has to scroll it gets cut in half.

    I have no screenshots at the moment so I took one of yours to show you what I mean with "page description". On this screen it is "Spela":

    This problem appears for example on the "TV - programm info" screen which german page description is "Fernsehen - Programm Info".

    second:
    Not sure if you had a look at it because this is a new feature: miniEPG.
    The programm title disappears on hover.

    greetings

    Ralph & Chris, how are your 4:3 mockups going ?

    I was playing with Razor on a little crt TV and made some little changes just to see what can be done.

    Hi Molokoids,

    did not really get any further, right now I'm fighting to get MP working again. :evil:

    I don't now what phpchris is doing on that, I didn't get any message from him.
    If you would like to go on, that would be great, maybe we good get it work together.
    If you will send me your version, I can check how it works on my crt and add my changes.

    Regards
    Ralph

    Hi. I haven't done much. Just a little tweaking, for exemple the resolution of the skin is still 16:9, I'm just moving the elements ;)
    I will e-mail you my changes.

    I am using this skin on a 16x9 monitor.

    I like it a lot, but on most screens, the thumbnails and other info is all in the upper 60% of the screen, with the bottom empty and wasted. It looks a bit weird too.

    Is there an easy way to change it to add a third row of icons (viewing "large icons" and showing 5 in a row)?

    I did open it in the editor, but not sure I can figure it out.

    An alternative would be to reserve the bottom for showing info about a highlighted item in the rows above, but I imagine this would be much tougher to do.

    Most (all?) small PC cases accept only ITX motherboards, which have only one PCI-E slot. So you could install only one PCI-E tuner card. A quad-tuner card would give you four tuners, but if you wanted more tuners you would need to use the TBS eight-tuner card, or use external tuners, either USB tuners (available with single or dual...

    Ok, so perhaps a solution, but not the "right" solution. On the client, within media portal configuration, under TV settings, advanced options, I switched to UNC paths instead of the default RSS, and it's working very well. Sure I had to figure out the paths, but no big deal. Maybe helpful for someone in the future. Thanks for the...

    Many thanks for the answer. So far I've used Logitech's Harmony hub. This allows you to control all components (including the media portal). I have now contacted the Sofabaton hotline. It should also work here like with the Harmony. Unfortunately, not all of the IR codes are correct. You can also learn commands here. But that doesn't...
