    Hi
    i upgraded to the RC2 version and upgrade to the latest version of this plugin which is great but i still had bug 151 when time shifting is off while moving from mytv to schedule recording the video window stay in the same place covering much of the screen instead of minimizing to the bottom panel i know that you can't reproduce this bug since you using tve3 in which time shifting is always on
    anyway i decided to pick the glove and finely solved it
    i solve it by adding
    <control>
    <description>video preview window</description>
    <type>videowindow</type>
    <id>1</id>
    <posX>1100</posX>
    <posY>615</posY>
    <width>166</width>
    <height>94</height>
    <action>18</action>
    <textureFocus>tv_green_border.png</textureFocus>
    <animation effect="fade" time="400">WindowClose</animation>
    <animation effect="fade" time="400">WindowOpen</animation>
    </control>

    to the mytvrecordedtv.xml and mytvscheduler.xml files
    you decide if you want to include it your next version for those of us who don't use time shifting

    Tanks i will add it in 0.8.8 ( just released 0.8.7 )

    is there any progress on the bug which you can't go all the way to the bottom of the movie list when using big thumbnails ?

    keep up the excellent work i really love you skin
    Unfortunately not. I have tryed to solve it, but it seems like its a skin engine bug.
    I will talk to a developer about it soon.

    Mirk: I get the "Big icon view bug" when I use XFace skin as well. So it's not just in Spinsafe Revolve. But I don't get the bug using BlueTwo. Hope this helps somewhat.

    Great work on the new release, I love the animation on the Basic Home Screen - keep up the great work.

    I only had a quick play this morning and noticed two things that might have already been reported or might not be problems with the skin.

    With Music with Albums View and Big Icons Layout shown I can scroll right through the Albums but when it gets to the far right it does not skip down to the second line far left as I would have expected.

    Also with Music, if I select a Playlist none of the tracks show Album art until I go to the Now PLaying screen and then the Art is correctly picked up.

    As I said maybe it was always this way and is not a skin issue but only noticed them for first time this morning.

    I really like all the bells and whistles, nice looking skin. Unfortunately it's not very stable, crashes constantly when changing channels. If the bugs get ironed out it will be a great skin.

    emphatic: Tanks, then its must be a skinengine thing. I think it has something with the with of the tumbnailview that is the reason.

    @The cover art bug in the playlist screen i think i have solved. Please test the updated reference.xml attached. And let me know if it helped.

    FReT had no craches here...is it only with this skin it craches ?

    Vergo Does this version not work with RC1 ?

    dirki1972 read FAQ in first post. Did this solve you problem?

    Thanks for the prompt responses. I tried the new references.xml but I still see no cover art in the initial window when a playlist is selected.

    I also noticed another strange minor bug - in the track name window it seems that you start it rotating if the track name is more than a certain size, so as to display the complete name. This works fine for most tracks but I noticed by accidnet that the track

    Travis - Flowers in the window (for Nora)

    starts scrolling but doesn't actually clean the stationery name out the way meaning you get a jumbled window. Maybe something to do with that specific string length (41)?
