First of all: I love this skin. You really understand the way people want to use their htpc. I like the way it looks, all the settings to personalize the skin and that some scripts are already included.
But I just noticed a minor flaw. I use the script that downloads the logo's for tv-shows. It found 15 out of 16 tv-shows. And it looks nice. Except when I am in landscape and fanart view it doesn't show the name of the show I don't have a logo for. It just leaves it blank. It would be nice to just show the name. It does this correct in for example file view and poster view, but not in landscape or fanart.
I use pre 10.5 r 28256 and I download the skin manualy (no git). I use Linux.
It's no biggy for me. I just wanted to let you know because I like your skin.
Keep up the good work.

When inside a list, the part you navigate, - (Landscape, Fanart and 16x9) - there is no way to use a label fallback...It's all logos or no logos. Even with an image XBMC uses by default like a Poster when inside a list you can't fallback to a label if no Poster.

With EMM's latest auto update they have corrected the duration issue. For those of you who use EMM just re-scan the Meta Data for all movies and it will correct it. (Then refresh XBMC of course)

some irregularities with latest version.
1. your new home menu items (favorites, shutdown) are toggle off = hide, toggle on = see on the hide homescreen items.
2. submenu on movie and tvshow starts with files, but music start with artist and files is forth. maybe do files first on all three of em?

1. Maybe be me switching mid-skin screwed something up but I just put a fresh copy(renamed the skin) and everything is fine. Those buttons are disabled by default and have to be enabled to show. Like Movie/TV in Confluence.
2. I just copied Confluence's code for ease of implementation and my guess is his reasoning was he put them in order of importance or common use...which seems right.

first love this skin, was on Confluence, but this is much better.
now when in the music section, if you are in the albums area (Library>Music>Artists>[Artist])
it doesn't show the fanart for that artist.
Second you need a Media Info View for your music section, in order to see bios for the artist.
On your shutdown menu (when you press "s" on the keyboard) you need either a Custom Shutdown Timer, or a Shutdown Timer that is set in the settings menu.
Other then the above everything is awesome.

Here a little bug:
On showcase view for movies, when you have a movie set highlighted, under the title of the set, it says "Minutes"
I suppose there is a way to disable the display of the duration field when a set is highlighted.
Great skin!
Thanks

Hi,
Loving this skin, great work! Been struggling with the new addons section not updating...just realised today that in your skin the 'Settings' and 'update' buttons are the wrong way round! Had to go to Settings to get the 'Allmusic' scraper to update finally!
Cheers
