if you look at the widget picture I posted above, the one to the left of the 1080P (VC-1) is the video compression type. See the image below, same movie:
It shows Bluray instead of VC-1.
Got it.
I'll give it part of a day and see if there are any objections. I not 100% if it will slow things down on lower powered devices. I was trying to avoid coding in that method but likely and at least I can change/update the codec type.
For the covers and fake disc art I can update code but if it is an issue I can revert back.
EDIT: will update all widget vars for consistency with others used though out the skin. (as suggested by mike)

That again would be skin.helper related. If you want to ask for a similar format then that would be up to the creator of that script. I noticed it myself and would prefer not to have to add a lot of conditionals, if I do not have to, for the few movies that cross a billion

I removed any checking of the filename to speed things up as I felt there were to many substrings in the widgets. If this is an issue for people as they use filenames to show certain textures I can change it. If I do I hope it wont slow things down on lower powered devices.
Assuming you mean the 1080p logo?
Please use the same definitions as the PathFlagsSource variable used throughout the skin. I know you have to add Container(xxxx) but best to keep it the same for consistency
Sure, done. A few more substrings but im ok with that.

Thanks buddy

BTW a certain someone from the madnox team thought I should have a new avatar. Thankyou,
Seems a bit official considering I just do the widgets.
Not wanting to cut anyone's grass here

I just noticed it and was about to remark on its slickness
I assume it came from schimi the great...
Gotta remember to ask him for another one but bigger for the skin and repo icons.
Ok, I took a quick look at color picker in BigList. That is fine if these settings are skin-wide; you wouldn't want to customize each view.
Personally, I see the skin as only having three colors (blue, grey and white). So I'm not sure it would look great to have additional accents beyond the blue headings and highlight bar. White and grey are really the same color throughout the skin. But there may be a combination that looks good.
There are literally hundreds of labels that would have to be converted, though.

I am starting with one easy view first cause doing all the labels in the skin is a sh*t ton of work but if that level of customization is what people want then I will continue to add it.
I am a little confused by your statement of colors though considering there was already more color than blue due to the theme XBT's and you want to add another accent for the unwatched episode count...
I have been playing around with the color customizer and the look that can be achieved for the home menu is entirely in the users hands so it can look good or not.
I currently have this for my home menu colors:
I personally think that looks pretty good but beauty is in the eye of the beholder. I am thinking of adding those three options in BigList to all views and any extras like the unwatched count on a case by case basis so things do not get out of control so someone can not make an ugly plaid or rainbow colored view
I am struggling with this though cause you are right about things possibly looking crappy and there are certain things I have to figure out first like how to automatically handle the theme_transparent color. Might put in a request in the skin.helper thread for an extra property that returns the color string minus the alpha value... Lots to consider
Anybody have any thoughts? Feel free to share

Maybe more users will appreciate the work you've done. The term widget means small useless thing in the business world. I thought your contribution was much greater.
I meant blue is the only accent color by default. Albeit, the skin uses several shades of blue, not just one.
The unwatched count is the only accent I highlighted that was not already that way. There can't be too many more items that need color that do not have it already.
I would color any item that already has color.

Luckily there seems to be only three shades I need to focus on: theme color, selected, and transparent theme. There are some colors where I actually cannot find a single instance of them being used anywhere in the skin like ICS_Blue_Text and ICS_Blue_Textures.

Thanks Man. Its good to see some one (and there are others too) understand how much man hours it takes just to implement a few widgets and some options. In due credit though, Mike has spent many more hours on the silvo mod than I have. He is the man of greater contribution and has had some sound advice on the widgets.
Thanks for your kind words.
@ Mike the seek bar is also blue no matter what color you have chosen in the color customizer , would be nice if we could change that color too
and i have a question from which language shows the skin the audio codec (DTS HD, Dolby Digita.....) and the channels (5.1,7.1 ......) when the video have more than one language
Most of my files have english and german i think its shows the english one !!!!
Edit :
I think the isengard branch have not the latest german strings ??
