I have installed your skin from SuperRepo, will I receive the auto-update or should I add Hybrid Repo (see Post: #1) and reinstall the skin?

Another little question, I have two machine with openelec... is possible to backup the skin configuration from machine#1 and import the settings to machine#2?

Depends on SuperRepo they run around snatching whatever they can find. TBH I haven't even looked to see what version they've got.

I obviously would only recomend Hybrid Repo as I know what goes into it. You dont have to uninstall anything just install Hybrid Repo and your machine will be able to get the latest version from it, providing you've turned on "enable updates".

All CCM settings are save in your guisettings.xml, you could copy it accross, but I wouldn't - Think it's easier just to set up the other machine.

Now I have installed also Hybrid Repo (SuperRepo as the 3.0.3) so I will receive the updates

Thanks also for the guisettings.xml info.

You're doing a great work!!!

@ thewarm - thanks for the theme, I really like what you've done

@ Mudislander - I seem to have found a problem/bug. We often leave our box on all the time, generally at the last screen we were on. When I come back the next day and press the back button on my remote, the skin reverts to a library view of the videos folder, and repeated presses of the back button on the remote move me back to the home menu through a library view of the videos folder, as you would expect. This behaviour didn't happen on previous version of CCM. Any ideas what might be going on?

If you'd like I'll set up a debugging log overnight to see if this brings this behaviour shows up in the log.

Great work so far!

Is this from a playlist type item? By previous version of CCM do you mean Gotham version or from the start of this thread. Does it only do that if left on overnight or every time.

Actually don't think there's that much I can do - except I've a niggle that I might not have included the "return" part of the command for some reason I've now forgotten.

It happens from any of my video nodes (haven't tried to see if this behaviour happens from playlists yet).

And yes, by previous versions I meant Frodo / Gotham.

It only happens if left at that nodes 'list' screen for more than a few hours. I'm going to try and narrow down the duration this weekend, and see if it happens from play-lists also.

Where would this "return" part of the command be? I've still got the Gotham version to compare bits and pieces against (I stole some of the images from Gotham and put them in as menu backdrops for Helix), so if I know where to start looking, I may be able to find something.

Easiest place to check the return command would be in your "guisettings.xml" Look for the ccm.helix Home Item Paths and it should have a return near the end

eg:

Code:

<setting type="string" name="skin.ccm.helix.HomeItem.3.Path">ActivateWindow(VideoLibrary,&quot;special://skin/extras/Playlists/GenreComedy.xsp&quot;,return)</setting>

or

Code:

<setting type="string" name="skin.ccm.helix.HomeItem.6.Path">ActivateWindow(Videos,MovieTitles,return)</setting>

Mudislander should the weather widget be working now at this point, or is that something you are still getting to?

Cheers

have the color options been enabled in 3.03? If yes, where do I find them?

Taking a little break from widgets, so something to get back to

Font colours will be avail in next update. flhthemi is running on Github version which is not always complete.

Yup, you gotta be willing to take a few chances now and again..

Does extra fanart work with this skin?

[Mudislander]

GitHub supports exrtafanart for artists of music playing, will be in next update. Will help if path of music parent folder is entered in skin settings.

Updated Repo to v3.0.4 - Now you can have limegreen font with thewarm's gray theme - also included, plus a few other settings and tweaks.

Never thought I would say this... but I really like the limegreen on the gray theme!

I also like the delayed popup action on Movies & TV Shows... gives us a chance to see the fanart for a moment first if you are using the fanart view.

I like the home screen without the floor bar.

Love how this skin is progressing! Keep up the great work!

Checked my "guisettings.xml" file, it does have a return at the end.

Code:

<setting type="string" name="skin.ccm.helix.HomeItem.5.Path">ActivateWindow(Videos,nfs://192.168.1.4/volume1/video/Movies/,return)</setting>
<setting type="string" name="skin.ccm.helix.HomeItem.6.Path">ActivateWindow(Videos,nfs://192.168.1.4/volume1/video/TV Shows/,return)</setting>
<setting type="string" name="skin.ccm.helix.HomeItem.7.Path">ActivateWindow(Videos,nfs://192.168.1.4/volume1/video/Anime/,return)</setting>
<setting type="string" name="skin.ccm.helix.HomeItem.8.Path">ActivateWindow(Videos,nfs://192.168.1.4/volume1/video/Misc Videos/,return)</setting>
<setting type="string" name="skin.ccm.helix.HomeItem.9.Path">ActivateWindow(Music)</setting>
<setting type="string" name="skin.ccm.helix.HomeItem.10.Path">ActivateWindow(Videos,nfs://192.168.1.4/volume1/video/Music Videos/,return)</setting>

I'm going to keep digging around with this. It's not a great annoyance, just a minor embuggerance, so I wouldn't get to wrapped around the ankles about it

Might be something to do with the network, I'll setup nfs:// on my system and see if I can reproduce your problem
