KingJames Wrote:If you would this skin to work more smoothly on xbox go into the media folder of the Alaska skin and open up the filter.png file in your favorite photoshop program and drop the resolution to 960x540 or lower also go into the media/list folder and do the same for vignette.png and vignette2.png.
Nevermind changine the files in the media/list folder, when i changed them i had missing font in the music library.
I think talk of themes looking like other thems is a bit pointless. A theme as well as looking like something has to have a basic function, things can only scroll certain ways and landscape or portrait posters look like just that, there is going to be merging along the way that cannot be helped.
The thing with Alaska and indeed the looks of that medios skin is simplicity and thats going to make similarities even more obvious.

This does not work for me. Any clue why? Is there any other way of accessing the Favourites window?
I don't think the favorites windows has been created yet, but I am working on adding the filemanager and virtual keyboard as well as other things of the like, so I can do that too.
Edit: I added a selection to the shutdown menu for favorites, and I'm not sure what method you used to add the favorites to your remote, but you might want to try
Code:
XBMC.ActivateWindow(Favourites)

Doesn't seem to work either, but if it isn't created it shouldn't.. right?
Anywho, what I tried was to put <B>XBMC.ActivateWindow(Favourites)</B> under keymap -> global -> keyboard in keyboard.xml. Hope that is the right way to do it? However, XBMC doesn't react at all when pressing "B".
watch your log files to know.
no xbmc.log !
to know if you get an error when pressing your favorites button
BTW: Just checked and
Code:
<b>ActivateWindow(Favourites)</b>
works for me in keyboard.xml.

Not you, I was referring to Reta's prior post.
OlafBerserker77 Wrote:You do mean keymap.xml, right?
http://wiki.xbmc.org/?title=Keymap.xml
You can also call the window by it's window ID such as
Code:
ActivateWindow(10134)
A list of ID's and Deltas can be found here:
http://wiki.xbmc.org/?title=Window_IDs
(yes I'm old school, and still use keymap.xml)
Hmm, no I actually mean keyboard.xml, the one in ..\Application Data\XBMC\keymaps\. Keymap.xml was used in earlier version if I'm not totally mistaken.
I've added "<b>ActivateWindow(Favourites)</b>" under
<keymap>
<global>
<keyboard>
next to my other keymaps (which work perfectly fine).
I also tried "ActivateWindow(10134)" and "XBMC.ActivateWindow(Favourites)".
Here's a log after starting XBMC up, pressing "b" in the first menu, then closing XBMC.

OlafBerserker77, I also downloaded your Alaska fork and tried it, since it worked for you, but I got the same problem there, no favourites menu showing up.

Read the thread. This has been covered so many times it got annoying already.
just noticed...the flags for 480 and 720 are the same style but the flag for 540 is an oval with the 540 in white...any plans to make a 540 in the same style as 480 and 720?

The first alpha version of the skin hasn't even been released yet - be patient.
