Hello all,
I have just uploaded versions 3.2.110 (Leia) and 3.4.1 (Matrix) to GitHub and the Amber repos. The highlight of this version is:
- Add new view Triple for TV Shows and Artists. Thanks to @manfeed , who let me adapt his code from the Aeon Tajo skin, I have added a new view called Triple, just for tv shows and artists at this time. This view allows you to see on the same screen seasons and episodes for tv shows, and albums and tracks for an artist. The view looks like this for tv shows:
You press Right to move from the tv shows panel to the seasons panel, and you press Right to move from the seasons panel to the episodes panel. Within each panel, you navigate using Up and Down. To get to the scrollbar, you press Left from the tv shows panel. If you have enabled the mouse/touch-firendly alphabet strip, and you are sorting by title, you get to the alphabet strip by pressing Left from the tv shows panel, or by hovering with your mouse on the left edge of the screen. Please note that the other alphabet strip is not enabled for this view.
When you are on the episodes panel, after two seconds (not configurable), the item will open up and provide further info for the episode. It looks like this:
The view looks like this for artists:
Navigation for artists is the same as for tv shows, except there is no further information shown for each track.
You can select this new view from the classic view selector:
And from the new view selector:
And, of course, you can disable it if you wish:
Please download/update, test, and let me know what you think and if you find any issues. Thanks.
Regards,
Bart
