Mirk do you think you can implement a complete support for onlinevideo plugin? It actually works but in bluetwo is way better with icons for youtube, icon view of movies, and so on...

Thanks anyway for your efforts!!

Thanks a lot for the great skin

I still have one problem with it, when trying to play stacked files. Disc selection window doesn't appear.. skin only freezes. I think that window is hidden. Can anybody confirm this or is there something that I can do?

Yes, the DialogeFileStacking dialoge has been changed in the core some weeks ago, this is fixed in next version of SSR.
I attached the fixed skinfile. Just copy it to youre SpinSafe Revolve skin folder.

I have added it to my bugtracker.

I just downloaded MyEmulator 1.6 and it seems as if the xml packaged with skinsafe revolve doesnt work with it, works fine with bluetwo wide.

Added to bugtracker.

Yesterday i played around with C# and did my first tool for mediaportal.
You can find it here
I have for a long time been iritated over the low quality of the generated video cover images. So i desided too do something about it. And MP Movie Cover Resizer is the result.

Biger and better quality video covers has open the possibilitys for making much more nice looking video displays.
Today i have played around on a "tweak" of SpinSafe Revolve there i have not taken any notice about readablity from long distances, overscan and so on ( and will not ether ). I have just made it for my own desires and needs.
If anyone is intrested i could release it when i begining to get satisfied with it.

A preview screen below. ( quality its better in action. I had to remove some qality to be able to upload it here)

How do you get that Coverflow-alike look?

I dont realy know if its looks like coverflow...but you can download my "SpinSafe Xperiment" skin here..Link removed(but may be back soon)
Note this is a experimental skin, where i have tested diffrent layouts and "features" for SpinSafe Revolve and have not taken overscan, fontsize and more under consideration.
So see this as experimental skin...and not a skin that will be fully spread.
I have added SpinSafe Xperiment to the bugtracker. So if you have ideas on makeing SSX ( SSR ) better please post it there or create a new forum thread here insted of this thread.

To make the high resolution covers images you can se in the screens, use this plugin (also created by me ) (Please backup you old coverfolder)

mirk: I downloaded and tried the xperiment-skin, but I can't find any differences from the regular revolve-skin. Are you sure the .rar-archive contains the xperiment skin? Or is there a bug in MP that confuses the two skins since the name is quite similar? Do I have to remove the regular skin or the cache files for it to work?

On another note, it seems that the GUI calibration bug in MP has been resolved in one of the latest SVN's, so things are looking very nice even on a CRT screen now as well.

This is how coverflow looks like, yours is close to it & I like it
Would an exact copy be possible?
