I always thought this would be a great feature, but untill it will be a script we can't do anything to integrate it.
About trailer icon, have to take a look, are you using the old or new media flags ? Maybe you should try the new media flags, Skin Settings ---> General ---> Use new media Flags
What do you mean about Info in every View? There are only 2 Views you have to press Up to show Plot, BigPoster and FanartSlide ... all other views content infos ...
Hi,
Thanks for replying,
For the record your skin is incredible... And I mean incredible... I encountered 4 or 5 headache problems with xbmc on my first build and couldn't resolve any of them (all posted on here) ... until...
I installed your extended skin and then everything worked exactly as I wanted and needed it to, it's was just there and it just works. Fantastic work, looks, feels and functions amazingly.. This should be the default skin IMHO as it's elegant, simple, light, functional, user friendly, and has all the options we need for advanced users and basic users like me. It reminds me of apple software.
...
Yea, for info I'd like it to be available to switch it on permanently for all views.. Such as wallview, big poster view, fan art slide, list ... Everything just an option to have it always on view as I like big poster view and fan art but don't use them as I hate pressing up on every movie to see what it's about... I know that sounds lazy but I like to just lie back and glance and read the first few lines of a synopsis to see if it's what Im in the mood for.
Trailers would be amazing, I'm glad you too want it implemented as it means hopefully one day it will make an appearance.
As for the trailer icon
I was not using the new media flags ... So the issue has gone, it's a small problem with the old flags, but I never new these new ones existed lol ..wow what a difference they make, much neater and tidied and symmetrical. Thanks for the heads up, not only does the trailer icon now sit correctly the entire bottom row of information is far cleaner and blends in With skin much better, Sorry for not knowing/noticing that option In the menu
This is by far the nicest skin I've used and I love how you have kept support for the trusty mouse too
really well done and I hope you keep up the amazing work ... but don't change it too much
Ps,
I was wondering if it would be possible to add the imdb "recommendations" feed I to the "show Information" section of the skin...
You know on imdb when you pick a movie it gives you 4 other titles you might like etc... Would there be any way to pull that feed Into the "show information" section and, some how, cross reference it with films we own... so that it shows us the imdb recommendations for the current film, but only displays the recommendations we own or am I talking about a kind of voodoo magic that is not available yet lol.
Thanks again, and seriously, this skin is amazing and what you have done is very close to perfection for any home theatre. This really should be the default skin IMHO.
Pps.
As some of my movies already point to trailers online (the trailer icon) can I download them automagically so I can watch them off line and have them stored With the movie or will this need an entire script creating as well?
