I decided to try this skin today, on the whole it's very nice but I noticed a few niggles while tinkering around that I thought I'd mention - don't take these as criticism, just observations
- Skin felt a little sluggish compared to say, confluence sometimes a black screen of 2-4 seconds while moving between screens on an Acer Revo Atom 330.
- Recently Added on home screen; item names get 'cut off' (looks like they are too long to fit in the allocated space)
- Recently Added on home screen; up and down on the remote both seem to open the sub menu of the highlighted item (TV shows for example) - it would make sense if say down opened the sub menu and up jumped straight into the 'recently added' box
- Slim list is my favourite view, but seems a little 'too' slim - might be nice to have a middle option between slim list and full.
- The skin seems to freeze at the home screen randomly while sliding between items - I have only seen it with this skin, none of the others I tried
Anyway nice work so far, will definately be keeping an eye on this
1. Have you tried Night and do you see the same sluggishness? Do you notice it at specific points, i.e., enter tv shows vs. entering movies?
2. Yep - it's on my list, just not high at the moment. :-)
3. That should be relatively easy.
4. That's probably because I keep forgetting to swap out the 1920x1080 images for 1280x720 images. If you change the default backgrounds to something else do you notice the lag?
Thanks for the comments - positive and 'negative' ones are always welcome.
