blacklist Wrote:You must be using one of the latest nightly builds from the SVN to use the addon version - otherwise you download and install the skin as normal.
Blacklist.
meridius Wrote:only problem i have is the tv shows tha main page is ok i can change the thumbs bu when you go into a show say 24 and you see all the series you can not change the thumbs to what i want you can select them but it just does not change them at all and i dont like the defaults at all.If you're talking about Seasons then you should be able to bring up the Context menu and select 'Set Season Thumb'.
is this a bug as i just can not change them
Livin Wrote:Hitcher,No, but if you want to make your own then I'd suggest getting the textures from SVN and simply changing them and the colors XML.
Can we use the themes from Alaska (and BIG Alaska) safely with your skin?
Livin Wrote:Also, can you make a larger list view - e.g. make the fonts a bit larger and the list longer?Not from me (I'm busy on something else now) and you do realise there's a scroll bar if you press Right.
When you sit 10' from the screen, even a big screen, it is difficult to see with the highly contrasting bg/text colors and also, with large libraries it takes forever to navigate.

Elbert Wrote:Hi guys,
Running xbmc SVN:31676 (build Jul 9) on my appleTV under ubuntu 9.10. XBMC + confluence is running great. Just installed the latest version of Alaska revisited but I have some performance issues. Browsing through the menu's seems very sluggish and even the RSS-ticker seems to stutter. I have to note that the original Alaska never had these issues (on the same hardware) and was always running very smooth.
Is there anyone who can tell me how Alaska revisited runs on their appleTV? It might be just something in my configuration; in that case I'll consider a clean install of the OS.

Hitcher Wrote:Are you definitely using the Context Menu (press 'c') and selecting 'Set Season Thumb'? Trying to change it using the Information screen (press 'i') wont work because that's calling the TV Show info not season.
As for hiding the 'All Seasons' thumb you need this in your advancedsettings.xml -
PHP Code:<advancedsettings>
<videolibrary>
<hideallitems>true</hideallitems>
</videolibrary>
</advancedsettings>
And to hide the 'Parent Folder' icon -
Settings > Appearance > File Lists > Show Parent Folder Items (disable)
