You may have noticed something new in the skin today pulsing in the top left hand corner of the skin. This is our Skin Update notification which is new in v1.2.0. Thanks to the hard work done by Trevor to make it possible.
When you see the Update Notification in top left and/or see an 'Update Available' image on startup, patch(s) is available to download and install:
Follow these steps to find out information about the patch(s) and apply to your system:
Step 1: Select Settings from BasicHome GUI:
Step 2: Enter Settings and Select 'Skin':
Step 3: Select and Enter Skin Update:
Step 4: Read the Change Log, click on the Spin Down/Up buttons to scroll. Click on the 'Update and Install' button to apply patch:
If you choose to 'Download and Install', you should see a GUI Progress Dialog displaying the current status of the download and installation process. If the patch requires mediaportal to be shutdown before applying patch, then it will be restarted upon successful completion.
Upon successful completion of the patch installation, you should see a completion dialog prompt. Click OK and your done.
Note: this dialog is not displayed if the patch requires MediaPortal to shutdown and restart.
We will continue to improve this process as the skin evolves and would appreciate any feedback you have.
