SpinSafe Revolve (14 Viewers)

[mirk]

I might have missunderstod you. What did you do to make it work? I thougt you had tryed the new fonts.xml, but now i see that it has 0 views, so i gues it was not that one who made it work.

Nope, I used the fonts.xml that you posted. I guess the logging is just a bit slow or smth, I even downloaded it twice.

(After that I switched to SVN, wanted to have reflections and some other stuff too. Basically there's only one thing left that I'm wondering about. I don't think it's skin specific, but since you have it in one of the screens on the first page I'mma ask it anyways.

I got the linkage to IMDB and so to work, but still when I'm viewing my Movie folder, and I highlight any movie, it still displays the filename in the bottom, and not the brief IMDB info that you have on your screen. Is that a custom solution? Thankful for an answer....)

You have the solution on this screen for example...

You have to change to a view that uses the database. I use the "Title" view.
- Press on the change view button
- Choose "Title".

I've tried that mirk, but i dont get anything when changing the view, aleverything dissapeares , i can only see my movies when iam using the "file" view.

Have you grabbed movie information on the movies? In fileview, go to a movie file and bring up contex menu and then press "IMDB".

I've done that for all my movies, so when i press f3 i get the info window showing the relevan IMDB inforamtion, but i still dont have anything on the title view , nothing, not even the movies them self

This is definately the best skin out there. I use it and it works fine.

I have however one or two suggestions and a small bug .

1. Bug: upon start up it says My TV but the icon for Movies in up front (basic home).
2. Suggestion: I have a 27"widescreen tft and the fonts are too small for my likings. This is true for all skins out there though. Is this fixable?
3. I think there is too many steps required to turn off the mediaportal PC from basic home .

Strange... are you using the latest version ? This problem has accured some version ago, but has been solved.

1. Yes, this is known... but have forgot to add this to the bugtracker, its added now. I have tryed to fix this before but could not figure out why this happends.
2. I use it on a 27" widescreen LCD too, and i think its perfect... guess you have the TV too far away You can edit the Fonts.xml, and add 1 or 2 more on the value for the height.

    <height>8</height>

Do not forget too delete the cache files for the skin, as i have described several time before in this thread.

3. I can add a shutdown button on the top bar if you want. I have added this as a feature request on the bugtracker.

for helping this skin better.

i have tried it, but i found a lot of the plugins i use don't work well with it. but its deffo the best looking skin, i love it for its looks and its quite functional... if it was as "mainstream" as bluetwo/mce skins, it would be great and my fav

i have it on a 32" HDTV running through DVI-D at 1080 and i find the fonts are a good size. however, in My News/Wikipedia plugins, the text is too small to read, esp if your more than, 3 metres? from your tv. there is a way you can adjust the font size, font.xml i think?

as for fonts in the plugins, they prolly also have a similar .XML file where you can edit the code, however fonts too big may then not fit into the skin. yeah am ranting now lol.

It should be fonts.xml (label18) that is placed in the SpinSafe Revolve skinfolder.
And maybe you have to change something in the "selected label"- control in mytvguide.xml also.

IMO i think it strange it not showing the text in hebrew allredy, becorce when i looked att the code, it dont looks like it should be any differens to the other labels.
