Is there a method of "logging off" in the skin that I'm not aware of? I thought it might be in the 's' Shutdown Menu, but I didn't spot it there.
Thanks.

After a third press I get to the root menu. Is there a way to disable this if it's meant to be that way?
(I know I can remap my remote so that the back button goes straight to the root from the movie menu but is there a easier way and is it supposed to be like that?)

I hate this. Hate. This.

not that hard to get around....

Where is the Esc key on my Apple Remote? Hmmm, looks harder than you think. Or perhaps I should just use a keyboard all the time - or get one of those 40 button remotes. Sounds really user friendly. Hmmm.

At least you'd think there'd be an option to turn this ridiculous setting off until XBMC is updated to allow access to those categories without forcing users through those options every single time just to get anywhere.
It's a Work In Progress, so I'm not going to waste time adding an option for everything until it's finished. If you don't like something check the commit and change it back.
I'm really looking forward to this skin, but shouldn't this thread be locked by now, or moved to an Alaska support forum? The developers thankfully have a private forum to develop/share ideas for the skin; this thread has turned into 70+ pages of requests, complaints, and support for an unfinished skin and it's getting kind of ridiculous/discouraging.

Wouldn't it be better to complete each section as you go along rather than getting everything to a half finished state and then having to revisit each section multiple times?

Nope. That's what Alphas and Betas are for.

Anyway, here it is using a Fixedlist with the focus position of 3.

That looks fantastic with the fixed list and a focus 3 position.
Looking good man! Big Grin

Have you looked into any kind of project management? No?
Having liked the way the Star Rating came out I've had a play around combining the Resolution and Aspect ratio flag.

Where would you suggest people discuss the skin?
