Hi,

I've finished making a view for banners, inspired by the original bannerplex view

How to get this mod:
Replace the content of your Viewtype_Wide.xml with this. Remember to backup the original file first, as this mod replaces the Wide viewtype by MarcosQui.

I recommend to remove/disable line 373 to 380 in Includes_MediaMenu.xml (this removes the Thumb: Banner/Fanart/Episodes button in the Media Menu as it's not needed by my mod).

This mod supports Clearart (download from http://www.xbmcstuff.com). Put your picture in the TV Show directory, name it "clearart.png", and wooila

Download season banners from http://www.thetvdb.com and put the pictures in the season folders, name it "banner.jpg". I strongly recommend doing this, or this mod will look ugly at season/episode levels!

I hope you enjoying my work, I've spent a lot of time on this

Please report bugs...

At last, sorry for my bad english - it's not my native language.

P.S. I'm not happy with the episode level yet...

BTW MarcosQui, I discovered some bugs with the the original Wide viewtype:
1. Video resolution flag don't disapper at TV Show and season level.
2. Focused watched episodes misses watched overlay.
3. Hide watched in Media Menu doesn't work.

I wait for the next release by MarcosQui with the new banner views.

Excellent work proson! The view looks great! One question though. Will this view detect banner.jpg files for the main view or only for season banners? If not, is there a simple mod to make them do that?

I put together a suggestion for a new Movie view. What do you guys think?

Skins are a personal preference. Just try it. That's the beauty of XBMC skins: they're simple to try. But IMO, this is easily the best skin to date.

The Aeon skins are great. You may also like Neon.

Hi guys, how do I add a new menu (for example: "3D MOVIES") where to put my collection of 3D movies?

Thanks

I don't think that's a skin issue. Might be scraper related.

Better then Ember media? Ember media doesnt seem to scrape anything for me when i add my videos..
