I've been seeing some strange artifacts popping up recently involving animations:
The weird stuff on the left is a kind of a ghosting like effect where it keeps..shaking for lack of a better word. Once the homescreen fanart multiimage switches to the next image it starts looking normal again.
The code for the animation:
When decreasing the time value of the rotate animation to around <275 the artifacts don't show or aren't noticeable anymore.
Also, sometimes when taking a screenshot or sending a toast notification:
Notice the dark frame around the notification area and dialog.
Dirty regions is off. Last tested with today's build on Windows 7 and nVidia gfx.

The code for the animation:
PHP Code:
<animation type="WindowOpen">
<effect type="fade" start="0" end="100" time="250" />
<effect type="rotatey" start="90" end="0" center="0,0" time="1000" tween="Cubic" easing="Out" />
</animation>

s), but the time remaining does not update unless the window is reloaded. If I use MusicPlayer.TimeRemaining nothing is shown at all, not even the other labels in the music overlay
