...I have made a few modifications to your skin and would like to give them to you...

Hi jurmb84,
thank you very much for your contribution, I like it very very very much, so I'll add it to the next skin release (only with a little change to the type of skin setting (string instead of boolean) to manage in a better way 12/24hrs time format also in the different top-right weatherclocks).

Thank you very much again

Hi,
I've got a strange issue with the Digital Clock. By now I have MP installed on four machines, all with Xtreme Skin configured all the same way.
On one of my machine from last week the digital clock seems corrupted: intead of showing me the numbers of the hour and minute it shows me something like "0 #skin". The same also into the clock of the meteo screen.
I tried almost everything but nothing seems to solve the problem, what can I do?

Thank in advance for any halp you could give me.

Hi,
take a look at Plugins section in Mediaportal Configuration and see if SkinInfo is disabled; if yes, enable it and all should works good.
If SkinInfo is already enabled, probably there is a problem on SkinInfo.dll file; on Windows 7 you can find that file in C:\Program Files\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal\plugins\Windows, and you should copy it from one of the machines without problem and replace that one on the machine with the problem (if you have problems to do this, let me know and I'll post the dll here).

Let me know if this solve your issue

Thanks for the quick help.
BTW I actually had SkinInfo disabled (trying to speed up a little MP start-up I disabled some plug-ins...), but re-enablig it and also overwriting skininfo.dll from a PC where the clock works, doesn't solved the issue. But, since I'm recording some shows I haven't already tryed to reboot or reinstall the Xtreme Skin.
I'll let you know if I manage to solve the issue someway with reboot or come reinstall, now that you told me that the problem coult be related to SkinInfo plugin.

Hello, I have been loving the Xtreme Skin for over a year now.....I am wondering if there is an easy fix in Music -> "Now Playing" to stop the faux Thermaltake box taking up 36% of the screen( from bottom left quadrant) .

Is there a mod which does not utilise Thermaltake box so I can just see my fan art?

 

[Marduk65]

Hi TeMorituri,
glad to read that you like Xtreme skin (thank you very much).
About your request, attached you can find a little Mod that I hope meets your needs.
Basically with this little Mod you'll have the now playing music screen as the one of the fanart layout also for the standard layout.
The result is what you can see in attached image.
To apply the Mod you have simply to copy all files contained into the zip file called "MusicNowPlaying_Mod.zip" into Xtreme folder (in Win 7 "C:\ProgramData\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal\skin\Xtreme"; of course replacing the old ones).
Into the zip "MusicNowPlaying_Original.zip" there is a copy of the original xml files, so if something goes wrong or you need to restore the original layout, you can copy them back into Xtreme folder.
I'm working on an update of the skin (I hope to publish it very soon); I will consider to add a setting for the music now playing layout.

Let me know if all is ok with the Mod
Ciao

Totally awesome man...makes me want to earn more about xml myself ( I assume it is just a form of html )

The files worked as you expected.....thank you very much Marduk.
Grazie mille

I absolutely love this skin. Any chance we will see Xtreme on mp2 anytime soon?

Would like to move to mp2 full time but dont like any skin choices. If only this was a choice
