[QUOTE="chefkoch, post: 1011937, member: 10438"] I am currently the WiFi plugin using my custom build [url]https://github.com/chefkoch/MediaPortal-2/commits/CustomBuilds/130712[/url] And I have to admit that I really like it :) It looks pretty nice having having the connection bar on the right side of the list items :) [ATTACH=full]132787[/ATTACH] The design can be improved, but that is not a top priority for a developer ;) Designers should bring up improvements for such things, even if the only draw the svg or xaml for it, and then get support "converting" it to MP2 compatible stuff with support by MP2 devs. [LIST] [*]could the signal indicator colored red if signal is < 40% and [*]colored green if signal is > 90 or 85% ? [/LIST] Now to the dev-related things: [LIST] [*]When disconnecting from wifi and reconnecting again, it the reconnected state is not detected and applied to the list item. Scanning for wifi networks again, displays the connection state correctly. [/LIST] [LIST] [*]Would it be possible to scan for networks continuously while being in this screen? This would allow updating the signal and available networks. [/LIST] [LIST] [*]If scanning for networks is kept as manual trigger by pressing the button it would be nice to have an indicator that something is going on, because from start to finish and updated network list there is a delay of a (only) a few seconds. Since this is not the only use case for a [URL='http://wiki.team-mediaportal.com/2_MEDIAPORTAL_2/8_Contribute/z_MissingFeatures/APIs_for_Plugin_Devs/NotificationService_%2F%2F_Popups']progress notifications[/URL], it might require additional code changes in core instead specifically to this plugin.
