Video Progress Bar - I think something's missing. (1 Viewer)

[2.0]

Whenever I play a video, the progress bar is just a plain bar with no time numbers. As I am new to this skin, I don't really know if it's supposed to look this way but I suspect that something's wrong with my system. The time indicator numbers don't show up when I pause the video or hit the Info button on my remote. However, I do get time numbers when video is being played in the little "Now Playing" box, as seen in the pictures.

Could someone please confirm if I have a problem with my installation? I find the following lines in my log file which leads me to believe that something is not right:

Try using the skin without any custom MODs applied, it may be a MOD issue as opposed to a skin issue.
I can spot many bugs in those screenshots.

Yes, my setup had several issues. I removed and reinstalled the skin cleanly now. But the video progress bar looks the same as before, just a plain line with no time numbers. Is this normal? And if so is there a way to put more "information" on that time bar? By the way, the log file still gives me the same messages.

Looks like your OSD controls have been shifted down, it definitely doesn't look normal.

Have you done any adjustments to your screen position? I have no idea why it looks like that for you but doesnt look like its skin related. Even your clock position is too far down.

This is a clean installation of the skin after an upgrade to Mediaportal 1.3. I have not modified anything other than replacing some of the background png images. I did some checking and found that the OSD controls are shifted down, as you said, but it only happens when I'm playing a video or watching TV. Every other screen looks fine. Check the images: Home screen and Music now playing look fine, but live TV has the same problem as the video pictures I posted before. I tried doing the screen calibration but that was already okay. Any ideas where the problem is?



Edit: I just tested video playing with both Titan and DefaultWide and the OSD was just fine with fullscreen video on both of those skins. There has to be something wrong with my StreamedMP.

This doesnt look like a clean installation as you still have some stuff left over which is evident in this picture:

That first SD logo is not part of the StreamedMP package, so im guessing your MP settings have also not been cleaned as well. Please also attach a screenshot of DefaultWide OSD whilst playing video on your machine.

Also you can install on a different machine and compare the differences. I suggest you uninstall everything and delete all mediaportal directories:

C:\ProgramData\Team MediaPortal\
C:\Program Files\Team MediaPortal\

Here's video playing in DefaultWide, starring the Cookie Monster:


I figured out where that rogue SD logo came from. I had tried M3rcury's custom theme earlier and uninstalled it. But apparently the uninstaller did not do its job right so there were some remnants left over. I deleted all files related to StreamedMP and reinstalled it. The logos were correct but that unfortunately did not fix the main problem:


I had no idea where the bug could be so I grit my teeth and went with the nuclear option. I completely uninstalled Mediaportal and manually deleted any leftover files from both \Program Files\ and \Program Data\. Then I stayed up late reinstalling Mediaportal and StreamedMP from scratch. I think it's fixed now:


Ltfearme, could you please check that last picture and confirm whether it's okay now?

 

[ltfearme]

The Nuclear option worked, congratulations

Great! You can tell how late I was up by the clock in the screenshots. Much thanks for your help.
