the new skin has some problems in 720p or 1080i mode, when a button is selected it looks like it displays the original 480p size and position.

look at the exit button at the top-left in the main menu:

and all the buttons in the osd:

this is great to know, considering i just ordered a 60in lcd projection tv. the skin will now be tested every couple days in 720p and or 1080i.

is there any update on this issue? this still seems to be a problem with the 2004-04-19 build... i also noticed that the project mayhem skin has the same types of issues.

you can do 2 things to fix this:

1. add appropriate height and width tags to home.xml in the pal/ subdir of the default skin. it should look like this:

...
<control>
<type>image</type>
<id>1</id>
<posx>0</posx>
<posy>0</posy>
<width>720</width>
<height>70</height>
</control>

2. add a separate subdir 1080i/ to the default skin, and copy the home.xml file from the pal/ subdir into this new folder. then edit it so that the size and position of everything is correct. you could redraw the home-topbar.png for instance to make it look better on 1080i, then position everything correctly using home.xml.

the same thing needs to be done for the background image used for the osd.

i'm sure once wabidwoveren gets his nice new tv, he'll get the default skin working nicely on 1080i and 720p.

yeah thanks, now i see with a little effort i can do it myself. i will make a default skin for 720p.

jmarshall,

i can't seem to find the "home-topbar.png" file you mentioned in your post earlier. is this the correct name? i unzipped xbmc and went through all the directorys.. am i just missing it somewhere? thanks again

it is in the cvs repository. we combine all the texture files into a single texture bundle textures.xpr to aid in speedy loading of skins.

the actual png's etc. can be found in the cvs repository on sourceforge.

it is in the skin/media folder.

if you redo it for 1080i or 720p, please upload it for others to use (or so we can put it into the default skin).
