xb2iris Wrote:WOW... great to hear man... i much appreciate it... it is time consuming working on it, but it's well worth knowing I'm making the most of AEON, my fave skin on XBMC. And, user input is really important, because, even though i don't use most of the stuff that ends up not working properly, i may just use it one day, and i'd like it to work when that day comes... plus, i take it, lots of people like aeon like me, and can't stand the fact that so many things just don't work, or partially work. Nice to correct that issue.

But anyways, thanks for those comments... nice to know someone appreciates the time spent on this project. Thanks a lot and i hope you like the next release.

rectifier Wrote:I can imagine how much time it takes putting such an amazing skin together, and with the number of requests you so humbly deal with, it's even more time consuming. Aeon is my favourite skin as well, so thanks for making it an even better experience... and no problem, I think you deserve all the thanks you get

Quote:for the first question... by poster art, are we referring to the pictures of the poster covers or fanart?

Quote:Hope these help...

xb2iris Wrote:Well done... well done... would have sorted that out if i didn't have to do so many other things... but good on you for doing the coding and all that... i remember how scarry it was opening one of these xml files for the first time... and now, ages later, horizonz is something i can be proud of... all the extra sections will be sorted at a later stage though...

six_storm Wrote:Sorry, I tried to take my own screenshots but XBMC would not go to windowed mode, therefore I could not take screenshots.

Let's say if I have "Grandma's Boy" under this directory: "F:\Movies\AVI Movies\Grandma's Boy\grandmasboy.avi" When you look in XBMC under the "Grandma's Boy" folder and all you see is ".." and the actual AVI, I want my Grandma's Boy poster.jpg to be shown on the AVI itself instead of a random point in the movie. So basically, you can click on the movie poster and play the AVI file.

Thanks for your help man, I really appreciate it. Hopefully my two cents and insight will help your mod. Horizonz has been the best XBMC I've ever used so keep up the good work!

Tension113 Wrote:Well now you've done it.. I was all proud of myself and whatnot for figuring out how to get the poster view working again, I decided to try and figure out how to add showcase to it as well.. I have it working, but can't get it to show up in the 'view types' section yet.. I'm very slowly figuring all of this out though.. Your mod inspired me and now I'm probably going to be messing around with everything I see.. So, Thanks a lot..

xb2iris Wrote:sure will... kinda understand your situation a little better... but as i'm new to the world of skinning, some things i can't quite figure out to do... no idea how the jpg-avi relationship works, as in your case... it completely baffles me... don't quite know if it's something u need to code into the skin, or if it's an xbmc coding issue... if u could find out how to do it, i'd sort it out for the next release... post a topic in one of the help forums, theres always helpful people in there... i always hear back in a few hours... let me know what you find out if you decide to hunt for answers...

sorry i couldn't be of more help to you... l8r

six_storm Wrote:Well that was easy. Just name your jpg image to "filename.tbn" and it will appear correctly! Hope this helps with our knowledge-base lol.

xb2iris Wrote:no idea what that means... but i'll look into it... it may be something that needs to be added manually... so i'll look into it for you, and yes, if i final a solution... it'll be in the next release...

six_storm Wrote:I do wish there was an automated program to take care of the custom poster art, but hey, I hate programming and I'm not that smart enough to make something that. I do have to commend you on dealing with XML though. I took a look through some of the XML files in the Horizonz skin folder and man, I just realized how much XML I have forgotten over the past two-three years. If I knew XML real well, I'd help you out with the skin project but I'm not that good anymore. I do know some photoshop though so hit me up if you need me on that.

markiz Wrote:What I mean is that the text in the menu ("Movies", "TV", "Weather" etc) is not translated. If I select swedish in XBMC, these words are still in english. But everything else is in swedish.

I hope you understand what I mean now

xb2iris Wrote:no problemo man... thats what happened to me, and look what i've done with that inspiration... if you can't figure it out i'll try to sort it out next release (obviously, if i get the time)... but good on u... enjoy it... its fun messing around... hope u don't mess anything up... message me if u get anything cool working... maybe i can include it in future releases...

Otherwise LOVE it.

Thanks

willers.nail Wrote:What a skin or mod I suppose. I can actually use Aeon for once without getting frustrated and having to change back to another properly functioning skin. It's like what Aeon was supposed to end up like but actually finished. Runs really good on xbox too thanks for that.

Problem:
I noticed is when in showcase view and when resuming a film is that it wont play because of memory issue's I'd say. Fanart is on and even with xbox compatibilty mode on it still the same.
Film will play if played from the beginning but resume seems to just do nothing. Can even lock the xbox if selected to play again straight after so must be a memory issue. Even with xbox compatibilty mode on it still the same.

Solution:
Can we free more memory somehow when in this view?
