Hey Wertzui!

Firstly great work on the skin - very slick feeling for MP.
As requested I have some bug notifications - you probably already know of these but I thought I'd let you know incase...
Please see attached image for help with explanations :)
1) EPG screen - Long titles are cut short causing scrolling when there is plenty of space to extend the text area (see red box)
2) Home screen has oversized looking green button icon and close/minimise etc.. buttons
3) Home screen selected button icon (my pictures etc..) are for the bottom button whereas you naturally would think the selected item would be the middle one not the bottom one (hope that makes sense!! see pic...)
4) Text inside homescreen button icons are all furry :) as in image..

Thanks for the great skin, I will keep posting things as I find them if you wish!

    1) will fix that
    2) fix that too
    3) thats weird, since it runs fine on my machine, but you are not the only one experiencing this.
    4) the same graphics did work on earlier versions of mp, so i think, its a bug within mp.

    Hi again Wertzui,

    I have today formatted my HTPC and now bug number 3 in the list above seems so be fixed!! :confused: fuzzy text still remains though (this is using 29/10/06 SVN)

    I have a few more for you, as before I'm sure you already know of them but i'll keep the reports coming unless you request otherwise..

    I have marked all in the image below to make explanation easier..
    1) Homescreen and now playing overlay is overlapping buttons and media status icon
    2) Browsing music causes selected folder name to appear over the top of other buttons at the top of the screen
    3) Music "Now Playing" has text boxes cut short causing scrolling..

    Thanks for the great skin!

    Hi Wertzui,

    Just installed your skin, looks great. I also have the oversized icon problem on the home screen. I don't really want to format my PC to fix it though! :) Anyone know how to fix this problem easily? Also, when choosing the full TV guide from the menu when watching fullscreen TV, the font comes up in black, can't read the text.

    Looks great though, keep up the good work!

    I do not know why this xml was in my theme folders, it must have sneaked in some time ago (years?). I simply removed the file. The Latest Media Handler plugin seems to be working as expected. I've had no lock-ups.

    That screen is generated by the file "MyVideo.xml", but it uses various other files too. When the list on the right is a list of episodes, the area in the middle contains the programme information for the episode that has the focus.
