superludox Wrote:Bravo ! great (artistic) work...
Well I would like to know how I can add the music "library" views to the music "file" view ? Indeed, the file mode for music has only wall and roller.
As I don't like using libraries...
thanx

xb2iris Wrote:well... u need to download the covers somewhere first on all... cdcovers.cc is a good site... then u need to crop the images into a square shape (whatever size u want)... and then u need to create shortcuts (cut files) to ur games and specify within them where u've stored ur cover images... it's a hand full, but if u want a nice collection... u gotta put the time in...
for detailed information, search for "shortcuts" in the wiki/support section of this site!

While you're taking requests, I figured it would be a good time to mention some things that Aeon doesn't have that other skins do (and the reasons why I don't use Aeon yet):
a) codec info during video playback
b) audio menu during video playback
c) info screen during video playback (to check playtime without pausing)
d) cast pictures in movie info dialog cast list (it just shows the names)
e) cast search results when clicking on cast member in movie info dialog
(a) and (b) have been mentioned... do you think the other 3 are worth working on and within the realm of your mod? Those 5 things would really improve Aeon's usability (for me, at least), and your great added view types Horizonz would make for an even more fantastic skin!

Great work on the skin, it definitely adds a lot to the Aeon skin. I know you mentioned it as a matter of preference but like some other people in the thread, I do miss having the idle fanart background transitions in the library views for TV & Movies instead of the single gray background. I notice that behaviour is still implemented in the files mode however. Would it be difficult to put that behaviour back in for the TV & Movies library modes?

How do i get this skin to show fanart for music? For movies the fanart gets set in library view, and in files view it can be defaulted to use a fanart.jpg if existent in the same folder. Is it the same way for artists, i.e. I have to manually add a fanart in library mode, while in file mode it will use a fanart.jpg in the folder.
Thank you for your time and effort, this mod/skin is looking great.
yadster Wrote:Really love this skin and it's now set to default and looks just perfect. One thing I can't seem to grasp is how do you make it so you don't get fan-art backdrops? As far as I can tell all the options are set to no but when I scan a TV show from tv.db I always get a fan-art backdrop (e.g x:files) which I don't want but I do want the info and the episode thumbs. I'm using file view btw (never could get the hang of library mode). I've just done a complete fresh install using this version of Aeon and the latest t3ch build as well.
