RE: [RELEASE] Aeon MQ 4 - -Tsunami- - 2013-02-20

Fellow MQ4 users, I personally think this is the best XBMC skin bar none however I have made a change to the Showcase view to include CDArt for anyone who downloads this with Artworkdownloader. This change brings in the CDArt when the information panel appears and spins or rotates however you want to put it..

Image

The code is below just put this in the <!-- View Content --> section below the first control point as below, do-not change the red text just insert the green text in the ViewShowCase.xml

<!-- View Content -->
<include name="ViewShowCaseVideo">
<control type="group">
<visible>Control.IsVisible(57)</visible>
<include>Animation_VisibleHiddenZoom</include>
<include>ShowcaseInfoPaneVideo</include>
<include>ShowcaseMovies</include>
</control>


<control type="image"><!-- Tsunami inserted code -->
<include condition=>ShowcaseCDArt</include>
<include>Animation_InfoPanelSlide</include>
<visible>Control.IsVisible(109) | Control.HasFocus(9910) | [Container.Content(movies) + SubString(skin.string(movies_info_showcase),on) | Container.Content(musicvideos) + SubString(skin.string(musicvideos_info_showcase),on) | Container.Content(tvshows) + SubString(skin.string(tvshows_info_showcase),on) | Container.Content(seasons) + SubString(skin.string(seasons_info_showcase),on) | Container.Content(episodes) + SubString(skin.string(episodes_info_showcase),on) | Container.Content(files) + SubString(skin.string(files_info_showcase),on) | Window.IsActive(1) + SubString(skin.string(programs_info_showcase),on)] + ![Control.HasFocus(9920) | StringCompare(Container.FolderPath,videodb://1/7/)]</visible>
<animation effect="rotate" end="-360" center="auto" time="5000" loop="true" reversible="false" condition="True">Conditional</animation>
<posx>690</posx>
<posy>550</posy>
<width>100</width>
<height>100</height>
<fadetime>100</fadetime>
<texture>$INFO[ListItem.Art(discart)]</texture>
</control>


If this is to risky for ppl to change code then I can distribute the XML, just PM me! I have also change the default music visualisation to move the logo from behind the artist bio to above the media box so it stands out more. Can share that also...anyways enjoy

RE: [RELEASE] Aeon MQ 4 - Alethenorio - 2013-02-21

Hi MarcosQui

I have just gone to Frodo and from MQ3 to MQ4. I am loving the simplicity of the addon, thanks for such great work. I have 2 bugs to report.

1 - When you go into the customizations menu and click on options, the 3rd option from the top has a typo. It says "THEUR" instead of "THEIR"

2 - I am not sure if this is intended or not but when using the default view for episodes (LIST), the thumbnail to the right which shows a screenshot of a part of that selected episode is being shown in poster size which makes it look stretched. It would be nice if the format would be less tall.
Not sure if I get the point across but I can take a screenshot if needed.

Keep up the good work.

Regards
Alethenorio


RE: [RELEASE] Aeon MQ 4 - optik - 2013-02-21

Is there anyway to reset 'recently added'? I don't want to reset the entire skin and restart from scratch (though i'm not sure that would work).

Also, I noticed when I watch something from recently added, its removed from the shortcut up top. Is there anyway to keep it there like it used to? That would also solve my problem too.

Is there any way to get the weather in celsius and not fahrenheit? When I choose my location, I see it display in celsius for a split second and then it changes to fahrenheit.


Thanks.

I should think this will be controlled by the weather add-on rather than the skin. If you find the weather add-on in your enabled add-on list and select configure, this should bring up any relevant options to achieve this.

Unfortunately there doesn't seem to be a setting for Celsius and it still shows Fahrenheit even though I have selected the proper city.

Same question here. We had the same issue (Watched content does not show up on the "recently watched" bar up top) on MQ2, then it was solved on MQ3 and now it is back on MQ4. I am guessing that some people want it one way and some people want it another, so maybe an option to toggle the behaviour?

You need to go to the skin widget settings, which can be found under the services add-ons list. In here there is an option to remove watched items from the bar. Just turn this off.

What weather add-on are you using? Mine shows in Celsius. The only other place I could think this would be controlled would be under weather on the customisation menu, but I'm 99% sure its not. I'll have a look at my system when I get a change and try and find the setting.

I think it's a caching issue:
From the wiki: http://wiki.xbmc.org/index.php?title=Thumbnails/Cache
"The cache operates primarily on an "as and when needed" basis. i.e. textures are cached when they're first requested to be loaded."

How the recently added feature works in confluence is that it requests the thumbnail and the covers are shown. However in aeonmq4 (skin widgets) the thumbnails is not cached and therefore I get a blank thumbnail.

That makes sense. Now you've just got to figure out how to get around it.

Finally I figured it out... Skin Widgets did not want to show me posters that were scraped on my xbmc-server if the movies had a local nfo file. I realized that if I refreshed the movie and chose to ignore local data and scrape from the internet it works.

Basically:
mysql+local nfo file+scraped on different xbmc client = no poster
mysql+no nfo file +scraped on different xbmc client = working poster

It does not matter if I have local posters+fanart, just as long as I dont keep the movie info in a local nfo file.
A simple nfo file just with the imdb link is fine though.

Hope this helps someone... but i doubt it
