@jurialmunkey
will you still do a Gotham version release or will you skip to a Helix one?


RE: Eminence - charliebrown - 2014-08-09

This skin looks awsome, when is it gonna hit the official repo?

1. Yes. Still figuring out the best way to display it though...
2. Probably will eventually be an option, but wont be until after its on the repo as I don't want to make any significant layout type changes until I've got all the little left over bugs etc. taken care of.

Hopefully will be able to do an RC in the next couple of weeks. I think I'm pretty much there - need to finish the other NextAired window, tweak global search a bit, and a couple of dialogs/windows (music playlist I think, and smart playlist editor needs to brought inline with other settings windows). Header options. OSD codec and 3d stuff, and a few PVR things. Its so close! Smile

Thanks, I can understand addressing all the bugs before making any design changes or additions.

Keep up the great work, love the skin


One other question. I have the DeleteTimer.xml and RecordPrefs.xml files that need modifying to match the pvr (serverwmc) I'm using. When you have some time can you modify the files to match? I'll share with everyone once completed

Reinitializing worked. Just had to reset all custom tiles. Thanks.


RE: Eminence - suku_patel_22 - 2014-08-09

Would be great if there was an option to modify the frequency of spotlight movie change.


RE: Eminence - stuCONNERS - 2014-08-09

RE: Eminence - sh33p - 2014-08-09

love that skin, how do i update skin version for openelec so my settings and custom tiles won't go away?


RE: Eminence - stuCONNERS - 2014-08-09

Is the live tv hub going to be updated like tv shows and movies? Is there going to be support for Metadata Actors like in xperience1080 skin?

Maybe eventually... IIRC its a real pain to do because you can't just set a variable and use it as the timer value - instead you need to have options for all the different time intervals and then a bunch of includes with conditions that check the skin setting - its a lot of effort for something fairly minor.

If you want to change it by hand the files to edit are:
Includes_WindowContent.xml (homescreen)
Custom_Hub_Movies.xml
Custom_Hub_TV.xml

In a text editor search for the <autoscroll time= and change the value after "time=" to whatever you want. Its in ms so 1000 = 1 second

Skin settings are stored elsewhere in xbmc's guisettings.xml so you can just overwrite the old skin with the new one and it will keep all your settings.

I'm not sure what you mean about livetv hub being updated? Do you mean by showing 7 items in the right side, because that wont happen as there is only currently 5-6 items to show (depending on if you have radio channels). In Helix there will be changes that separate out the various pvr windows which will allow me to make the hub its own window like it is with movies / tvshows. Also tvchannels and radio are going to be properly split up which will create a few extra menu entries and therefore allow me to go to 7 items on the right.

Metadata actors support will definitely happen - It just requires a fairly big bit of work and I haven't found a big enough block of time to sit down and get around to it.

I have a script to do it. It's posted here
http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?pid=1767623#pid1767623

And a cron job to update it every day.

even the custom tiles color, actions and background custom pictures i've added?


RE: Eminence - jurialmunkey - 2014-08-10

@sh33p - unless you've modified the actual skin files by hand, then all your settings and custom tiles etc will be kept


RE: Eminence - suku_patel_22 - 2014-08-10

System->Input Devices - >Peripherals

Nothing happens. It should open up and show CEC settings

Yeah peripherals window is not skinned. You will have to switch to confluence to edit those settings in the meantime...
