It hardly seems like a week since the last one but we've been hard at work work updating the skin, although if you are running in anything other then 4:3 then there might not be too many noticeable changes this week.
Our focus this week has been to get as much of the skin working properly in 4:3 as possible and we've managed to get about 95% of the planned changes done. Currently there are a couple of dialogs and a few things like the Music Visualisation that have not yet been fully converted but pretty much everything else should now look a lot better for all you 4:3 users/viewers.
As usual you can download the skin from our website, http://www.teamrazorfish.co.uk/mediastream.html
The changes since the last release are as follows:
The code that handles the 4:3 display is slightly different from the code that handles the other resolutions so we're splitting the bugs and suggestions thread into 2 separate threads - one for 4:3 and one for everything else.
Now that we've got the majority of the 4:3 stuff out of the way we'll be able to concentrate on adding and updating features this week.
We really need your feedback (especially for the new 4:3 stuff) so please post if you have any comments, suggestions or feedback and we'll aim to deal with them as soon as we can.
PLEASE NOTE: The skin is being developed based on the latest version of XBMC (T3CH release for Xbox and update to date builds for other platforms) so please make sure you have the latest version before posting about any problems.
