Either that or perhaps I'm missing an easy way to get to the Favorites like the button in PM3?
I rely heavily on it, to jump straight to the few things I want 99% of the time, rather than delving through layers of menus.
It's my #1 problem with this skin and why, for now, I'm sticking with PM3.
And also please add the shutdown button to home screen like in PM3.

there is an entire shutdown section on the home page

yeah i know, but it's in the menu. I want something quicker and simple just to exit XBMC.
But if it's just me then forget it.

at the moment it's only two clicks...not that much of an effort!!

I just edited the keymap file to have the zero button on the dvd remote go to the shutdown menu (which includes favorites) when the button is pushed on the home screen.

In the next release clicking on the on/off item on the menu will launch the shutdown menu.
If you are intersted in shutting down in as few a clicks as possible then Coco's method is better or even better map 0 to do a shutdown directly.

also, if you don't use the remote, but the gamepad, I think pressing the right thumbstick brings up the shutdown menu no matter where you are in a skin.
Video playback : Step forward, resume intermittent problem - frumpy_uk - 2008-09-10
Firstly, thanks to all the xbmc team and the skinners.
Secondly, I have a minor issue.
I have a few movies in which step forward and resume aren't working as they should. Most of the time, on pushing the right thumb stick to the right, the progress bar at the bottom appears and the current position time changes, but the progress bar itself does not colour in and the movie does not change position. Similarly, most of the time resume doesn't work - the movie starts at the beginning.
Occasionally (and I can't find any pattern), resume does work and then the step forward also works.
The same movies work perfectly in PM3.
One example has the following spec (from the little black button on my gamepad (while in PM3 skin)) : audio mp3lib MPEG layer-2, layer-3) br:96000 sr:48.00khs chns:2; video FFmpeg MPEG-4 fps:25 660x278 early/late:0/1
File extension is .avi
I have a PAL xbox in NTSC mode with component cables to 720P TV with 720P selected in XBMC.
These movies also show the same symptoms in Aeon, not sure if that's relevant.
I recreated the problem in order to capture logs :
1. I started one of the 'problem movies' in PM3 and tried the thumb stick and the d-pad - the movie resumed properly and step forward worked properly. I rebooted.
2. I started the same movie in Media Stream and tried the thumb stick and the d-pad - the movie resumed properly and step forward worked properly. I rebooted.
3. I started the same movie in Media Stream and tried the thumb stick and the d-pad - the movie resumed properly and step forward worked properly. I stopped the movie and started it again. This time it didn't resume and step forward didn't work. I stopped the movie again and started it again. This final time it didn't resume and step forward didn't work. I rebooted.
I got these logs :
1. PM3 worked ok - http://pastebin.com/f4592ffa2
2. Mediastream worked ok - http://pastebin.com/f45354897
3. Media stream worked ok first, then not twice - http://pastebin.com/f1f5a181e
cheers

It's a memory issue I'm afraid but when we get the lighter version of the skin up and running it should allow you to avoid this issue.
In the meantime try using list views and/or not using fanart/custom backgrounds as all of these will reduce memory usage slightly.

ok, thanks for the quick reply

I've done the same.

It would be great to have a own blade for adult-content...!
- psike - 2008-09-11
In the season view there is a count for unwatched episodes.
Can you do this count also in the shows view?
so it can tell which shows have episodes didn't watched yet.
Right Thumbstick! - wantin2mod - 2008-09-11

I can vouch for this as I use it MUCH! Well, I use it on Blackbolts MC360 skin which has an option for a shutdown timer. I love to use my xbox for listening/watching media as I'm falling asleep. Very relaxing . . .
This MediaStream skin has such a beautiful, polished look. It'll be great to get all the bugs and quirks out. Definitely top notch.

Thank you! That sounds great. I'll have to figure out how to map a key (maybe not 0 as it's tiny on my Logitech) to do that tonight.
