@abuabdillah3 : No problem!
1) Have you tried disabling both settings - disable login screen and disable log in button. These are in startup options. If that fails then have you tried enabling login button and disabling login screen ? I will take a look in to this when I get home but I think it's all working fine on mine.
2) Hmmm what do you mean that you don't have a gamertag ? If you don't have a gamertag then it can't pull your recent games from it. Everything gets pulled from Xbox Live, so it the gamertag doesn't exist then it will fail. Nope signing in to your email will just allow you to send & receive emails, report logs, send feature requests, ratings etc. In the next update i will include fallbacks so that if the script fails it won't just be blank it will fall back to some images that I have placed there. I will also take a look in to the gamertag script errors and see if i can make it pop up with a more useful error message instead of just "script failed" I will try and make it report the error reason e.g. "Gamertag doesn't exist" or "couldn't grab recent game info". This will make it easier to find the problems.
3) Hmmm I'll have to take a look in to this when I get back home and I will try and fix this for the next update.
5) I've never tried that out before so I'm not 100% sure if it's possible but I will give it a go when I get back home and include this in the next update.
6) Have you tried using my keymaps that I have made ? (Can be downloaded from first post). Pressing C on the keyboard should work, or pressing the menu button on your Xbox One Controller or LB on your Xbox 360 Controller.
7) Yeah I will also include an option to disable the XBMC splash screen (The XBMC logo when opening XBMC) this will replace it with either the Xbox One Logo or the Xbox One Boot Video.
8) Hmmm I'm not sure why it's not working. If you are signed in to your email on XBMC then go to settings - development - report log. This will send a copy to me. If you are not signed in to your email then you will have to go to your XBMC appdata folder (C:\Users\Username\Appdata\Roaming\XBMC\Userdata\) and copy the XBMC log file and send it to either my email ([email protected]) or a message on here.
Yeah I might do in the future, I will have to take a look in to it and see what needs doing.
9) Yeah sure I will include an option for this in the next update, that way people can have what they want there. (Their own content or advertised content) I will also try and include options for this on the dashboard as well, that way if you wanted you could have your own content advertised everywhere.
10) Yeah I have already created a application that will do all of this for you, if you go in to skin settings and enable new snap feature, then when you have a window open, open up the charms bar and click on home. The program will take a picture of the open window and show it on the dashboard. This has only been tested on Windows 7 & 8 and is not 100% finished yet. But it should all be working fine. I will also be improving this feature in the next update and will try and make the script run when closing windows, that way you won't need to open up the charms menu for it to take the screenshot, It will do it automatically. I have also been looking in to integrating game steaming in to XBMC and button scripts, It's really early in development at the moment but some time in the future you should hopefully be able to press the guide button on your Xbox Controller and the game will get minimized to XBMC and on the dashboard it will show a live stream of the open game. You could then press the Guide button again and it will go straight back to your game from where you left off. I already have some parts of this working but the live stream feature isn't there yet.
Thanks man!
Yeah I have noticed this problem on mine too after switching to Gotham, I will try and fix this in the next update.
@iAMl3dgend : Yeah sure I will try and include this in the next update.
@abuabdillah3 : Yeah I'm fine thanks, just been really busy with work and haven't been able to work as much on this skin. A new update should be released in a few days though!
Hmmm I didn't think that this was possible in XBMC without writing a python script to remember your recent games. I will have to take a look in to the aeon skin and see how it's been done on there.
When launching a game from the info screen it will set the fanart on the dashboard, when launching a game from anywhere else like the pins section it's not possible as it won't be able to get the fanart for the game. I think at the moment XBMC can only get the thumb of the favourite and not the fanart, I will have to take a better look in to this when I get home though.
Thanks!
Next update should hopefully be released in a few days or so, I will list all of the skin changes and updates soon!
