however, i'd like to point out some issues i still have, but on some of those i'm not sure if it's a skin issue or if i did something wrong
- watched flag is missing in following views: fanart, big poster, coverflow, compact and fanart in tv shows in episode view
- how can i activate the corner overlay "watched"/"trailer" icons present in media/OverlayIcons? Is this probalby related to the one above?
- sometimes the background for the slideout menu is disappearing which makes the writing somewhat unreadable, changing to another skin and back to cirrus extended fixes this temporarily. this happens quite often and on seemingly random occasion, i have not yet found a way to reproduce it
- the fanart slide view is missing some infos present in the very similar fanart view, for example the imdb rating stars and mpaa rating logo. also i think it would be nice if it would say "Running Time: 116 Mins" instead of "Running Time: 116" but then again this kinda breaks down to personal taste
- there is no video resolution flag shown for my ripped dvds. this happens no matter if they're saved as an .iso image or just the mpeg2 track in an .mkv container (ripped via makemkv). resolution is 720x576, could you do an SD 576 flag? (this is present for example in the aeon nox skin)
- also some of my tv shows in 1024x576 resolution are incorrectly flagged as 720p. is this classification something thats done by the skin or xbmc itself?
I'm using cirrus extended v2.0.5 with xbmc live 10.1 dharma.
any confirmation that these are bugs in the skin or info on how i can resolve/change these myself is greatly apreciated, thanks in advance
Hi, sure wanna clear some things up:
Before upgrading the skin, be sure to delete the old cirrus extended skin and if possible guisettings.xml.
I am going to setup my own repo this week, so updates can be downloaded within xbmc in future.
1. Not all views are finished
2. Watched and Trailer banners are not for every item, so when using Bluray or DVD cases the watched and trailer flags are different.
3. This has been reported already, can't reproduce it. Maybe this bug will disappear when textures are compressed in future releases.
4. I'll see what i can do, as said not all views have the same layout, Fanart View is the most complete for now.
5. I have no grafik skills at all, if someone is going to help me out i'll integrate it for sure.
6. Has been reported, this is how xbmc handles resolutions. This is not skin related as i know. Just try another skin and see if it's the same.
There is still a lot to do
Cheers
