Ok, seems like MP can't find a specific texture file for a plugin. Can you list all of your active plugins?

My active plugins are:
Play DVD
Home
My Music
My Pictures
My Radio
Settings
My Sudoku
My Tetris
Topbar
My TV
My Videos
My Weather
My Refresh
TV Diskspace
TV Episodes Cleanup
TV Recordings Cleanup
TV Notifier

Disabled them all (except Home that can't be disabled) but no result.

Just installed your beta 3 and man ! WooT !!! Amazing ! Great work, the animations are great and smooth, the GFX are cool and I like the new rounded dialogs. Thanks for the great work.

I tried your setup and it works great on both 0.2.2.0 and latest SVN. Weird.

Could you try to copy all gfx's files from BlueTwo's media folder to SimpleMP's media folder and answer no on each question of replacement? This will tell if there are any hardcoded gfx files that your MP is missing...

 

[csberto]

I assume you mean files with the extension gfx. Well, there are no gfx files at all in the Blue Two Media Folder. There aren't any in all the other Skin media folders (including SimpleMP).

 

[mikael]

No, sorry if I was unclear. I mean all graphics files in the media folder, all png files (think there are some bmp too).

i have the same error when MP starts i can anly see my desktop but can hear mp when i use the remote

Just in case: If you have the MyWeatherOverlay plugin installed, make sure you disable it when using any other skin besides ones that support it

 

[csberto]

No, sorry if I was unclear. I mean all graphics files in the media folder, all png files (think there are some bmp too).

OK. I did what you suggested. I don't know if any files were actually copied, but anyhow no result. I can also hear MP when I use the remote as Soundytim does.

Nice skin! Makes my MP running on 1GHz P3 a lot more robust.

Problem #1: Seems to me that the skin is a little bit off from the actual MP screen. This can be seen easily with VNC. It's a bit to the right and down which means there are small black bars between the left and upper side of the screen and the skin.
The black bars don't actually show on my TV(32" 16:9 CRT) but the graphics are somewhat hidden on the right side of the screen. This can be clearly seen with the "Home" window's right side.

Problem #2: When changing channels the skin shows the name with white text on a blue bar on the upper half of the screen. Now, for some reason only about half of the text hits the blue bar and the rest is left on top of the bar.
