New recorded TV

So, here is a new (pretty rough and not cleaned yet) myrecordedtv.xml.
Please test it, if you encounter problems showing content in your recording screen and let me know, if it works.

Thanks


nanogod.

Edit. Obsolet, check a few post down. there are new files attached that should work.

    Hi Michi,
    I have removed theatre and cache folder and reinstalled the original files with your provided MyRecordedTV.xml.
    Now I can see a label with only the first folder(Life on Mars) of my recordings, but I can´t go into it and do anything else.
    You are getting closer :rolleyes:

    Greetings,
    Peter

    Hey Nanogod, gorgeous skin, you have a wonderful sense of design! I wish I could use it but I'm stuck at 4:3.

    I can confirm for you there is a problem with the height of fadelabels. In aMPed 22pt font fadelabels display fine at 720x576 resolution but on my computer screen at 1280x1024, it cuts off the bottom part of the fadelabel. Of course, MP is caching the fonts for the larger screen size so in effect 22pt can become 46pt. It seems MP has a fixed limit on the display height of a fadelabel.

    I can also confirm problems with the menus in Weather. After viewing satellite images sliding menus can no longer lose focus. (They just stay stuck on the screen). Not the same problem exactly but I it may be related and in the Weather Plugin itself.

    Hope that helps. Keep up the great work!

    Thanks for confirmation. I kind of had a feeling about that fadelabel thing. Hopefully they can change that in another version of MediaPortal.

    Thanks Dadeo! Good to know, that it is (obviously) not my fault :) I hope that it is getting fixed, too.
    Do you know how to fix the weather/satellite prob? I guess no, otherwise you certainly have mentioned. :D

    I thought it might have something to do with the inclusion of just common.facade.xml instead of common.facade.recordings.xml. I had just noticed that a few hours ago while comparing Blue3 vs theatre. Anyways glad you got it figured out. Yay!!!

    Now that you point it out, I have never reported the 'bug' with fadelabels DUH! I'll do that now that you have the same problem.

    No we never found a solution to the the My Weather menus.

    Edit: I posted about fadelabels https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/bugreports-74/fadelabels-cut-off-bottom-text-67694/#post484884

    Great skin

    Great skin, looks fantastic on my HTPC! I like the simple design and the colors, and finally a skin which I can read from a distance.

    A minor comment
    It would be nice to reduce the transparency (make them less transparent) of the overlay menu's in TV mode. Depending on the program playing, the channel list cannot be distinguished from the background.

    Hi there,

    i was a little bit ill over the weekend, so havent posted for two days or so.
    Sorry for that.

    I thought it might have something to do with the inclusion of just common.facade.xml instead of common.facade.recordings.xml. I had just noticed that a few hours ago while comparing Blue3 vs theatre. Anyways glad you got it figured out. Yay!!!

    You are right. It seems, that the recording screen needs the common.facade.recordings. It does not work with another common.facade. :mad:

    Thanks Dadeo! Good to know, that it is (obviously) not my fault :) I hope that it is getting fixed, too.

    Thank you! I wear glasses and wanted a skin, that is readable from a distance, too.
    Wich overlay do you mean? The onscreen guide, where all running and upcoming showas are listed?

    Yes, i will update the zip soon, when i have fixed a few other bugs. Stay tuned and have a little bit patience, please ;)

    Cheers
