Oh, sorry, I didn't made myself clear:
1 -the unwatched indicator is small and perhaps could be made a little bigger
and 2 - in Banners view when scrolling down the banners overlap with information about items and sorting method
Also, download banners option doesn't do nothing.

You need the install the logo downloader script for the buttons to work

There is no download button, the author says that the skin automatically downloads the script. Nerd

Right, it should use the import function.
It's working fine for me but i'll have a look tonight. You should be able to install it manually through the addon browser though I believe.

More people with this problem?


- Jeroen - 2011-06-14

It seems you can't install it manually, at least I wasn't able to find it.
It does work for me though, however it does take a while before the script kicks in.

I'm a little confused here,

The official nightlies do not have PVR support yet so I get my builds from here http://www.scintilla.utwente.nl/~marcelg/xbmc/prebuild.html using the XBMC master + PVR version. However with this version I cannot install the latest version of this skin as I get 'dependencies not met' when I am trying to install it.


- mkortstiege - 2011-06-14

For xbmc-pvr tests please ALWAYS use the latest opdenkamp (dushmaniac) builds located here: http://xbmc.opdenkamp.eu/

That's great news Jeroen.
Only i have to wait. Because i run XBMC live 10.1.
Only thing that needs improvement are the latest added + sign. It's ugly does not fit with ReFocus.

Edit: i think the screenshots are not that up to date if i compare it with the one on the next page.

Keep it up.

Pause and info OSD still overlaps.


- zecoj - 2011-06-15

Very nice, love the new pvr interface! However I can't seem to get global fanart to work. Fanart just flash and then blue screen all over again

Update: never mind, flushed the old settings and all good now.

I'd prefer if the progress bar showed always when info OSD is on screen. This would require that the info OSD shifted slightly upwards to be able to show the progress bar without overlap. My particular usecase is this:
  • The missus is used to pressing 'info' button on the remote to see how long there is left in the currently watching program, without necessarily wanting to pause/rewind/ff etc.
  • Progress bar is displayed and a quick visual check verifies the information
  • Press info again to remove OSDs and no break in viewing was required (pause/rew/ff/skip etc.)

I understand you have a strong visual concept for this skin, but I hope you agree that using a visual progress bar in this situation is much preferable to blue-on-blue text information contained on the Info OSD (which could be dropped if the progress bar is displayed).

On another note, back in this post. I mentioned using ListItem.Date instead of ListItem.Premiered as it displays the same values but in a localised format.

This latest release is running really snappy Jeroen, it is absolutely fantastic! I'll whisper it quietly because I know you don't want bugs from the stable version. But with a couple of tiny-tiny modifications this is running better than ever on 10.1 Smile

Great update to one of my all-time favourite skins. Unfortunately, as I have recently switched from a Mac to an Apple TV 2, I am finding ReFocus's poster/fanart loading times unworkable, meaning I am not able to use the otherwise snappy skin in my day-to-0day XBMC experience.

The long delay in loading thumbnails and posters for all views is the only issue with the skin; performance is otherwise flawless. If it's any help I use the May 16th nightly, and I have a local library the content of which is accessed through a NAS. Other skins such as Quartz and Aeon have no issues loading fanart and posters, which makes me think there may be ways of further optimising what is otherwise a fairly lightweight and efficient skin.

I would love to be able to use ReFocus on my ATV2. I'll keep an eye out for updates going forward.


- Jeroen - 2011-06-15

Do you experiences this more or less in particular viewtypes?

I of course would be willing to look into improving the load times on the ATV2, but to be honest there is not a whole lot a skin can do differently when it comes to loading fanart. It's just your typical image control.

I could try to see what delaying the fadetimes would do, but that would affect all users so I would have to find a good compromise.
I'll look into modifying some things. I can then upload the files so you can check if it makes any difference.

Is PseudoTV supposed to work with this newest version + the nightly? All it does when I try is scan, and then come up with an error message that says 'no channel data found'.


- MaDDoGo - 2011-06-15

Hi Jeroen,

looking back at this forum I've found this and I loved it.

Do you have this img to change it? or the psd file to addapt the + icon to this?

Thank you very much Smile

PS: There's any chance you (God of Skinning) tell us what are you going to work on next? You know forum users are "update news" junkies Big Grin Thanks again for this.
