Thanks procratinator (*g*) for the hint. I will test it asap. Did you notice any differences when switching between the fonts? On my TV set (32" too) I wasn't even shure if it did change the fonts.

sorry, just re-read your post Halo 3 - hope i answered your question. In the last post I was talking about before I bumped up the font size with that script (couldn't see any difference then).
Just had a go with the script-modified font.xml installed and it appeared that the 3 text size optioned made absolutely no difference. I'm no programmer, so not sure if this is a result of running the script or whether it's some kind of bug. I'm not going to report it as a bug though as I haven't actually updated to 0.89 yet (still on 0.88) so that may have changed.
BTW please don't chastise me for posting in the 0.89 even though I'm on 0.88 - just throwing in my 2 cents on a problem which seems to still exist for those of us still on old-skool teles!

Well,
just had a long posting prepaired, but I got disconnected inbetween. So here is a short summary (testing on 32" 16:9 PAL TV with latest t3ch and MediaStream).
Fonts for "plot details" of movies etc. are too small. Same holds true for the navigation buttons on top of the window that open upon pressing "INFO" on the remote after selecting a movie ("Plot", "Cast", etc.).
Fonts in the "Settings/System" area are a little bit too small, the options (f.e. "Skin", "Font", "Flicker Filter" in "Settings>Appearance") are hard to read. Some additional pix might be enough.
A possible bug in the "infolist" viewing mode when browsing movies/videos (the mode with the "Shooter" icon). It should show the thumbnail on the left, details in the middle, a scrolling bar, and the list of the movies/videos on the right. When I access the list of movies/videos through the "Show your Movies" (i.e. library mode I suppose) submenue the infolist mode works fine. However if I'm using the "Show your Videos" mode, the infolist mode seems to be broken, as the details in the middle aren't shown.
It might be intentional, but if so this behaviour is inconsistent imho.
I'll keep on playing around with it to see if I can come up with more points, but I don't think I got time for it tomorrow.
Again thanks for all the work you guys from the team razorfish put into the new skin!

Does anyone know how to get fanart to show up in the background when viewing movies in the library under media preview mode? I have plex on my laptop and I believe it was setup to do this by default and now I can't figure it out for my xbmc on my vista htpc. Thanks in advance.
