hi ruuk

my you have been busy

don't be put of by my comments, as this is an awesome addon, its come so far in the last two weeks,it's all constructive, so hold on to your hat.....

V0.9.28 tested on xbmcbuntu

VW vortex is working now ok, but I was having trouble seeing images in the following forum "art & design" > pin up girls, most of the coloured image links don't show, is there any way to show these types of links

Smiles - how do I do smiles with a remote/keyboard maybe this wil be in your up and coming help guide?

Dialog confirmations - add forum to favs- ok
- remove forum from favs - ok
- add forum from online database - ok
- remove forum from local m/c - ok
- set logins - ok
- clear logins - ok
- add current forum to online database(haven't added one yet,but it let me know that one already existed
- unsubscribe messages works in context menu from thread/post
- subscribe messages works in context menu from thread/post



the four buttons along the bottom of the main screen ie subscription messages etc could do with being focused in a different colour than that used to select the forums.Also the red progress bar at top right is dark red upon red, which is fine on the forum choice page, but when in thread and post pages, there isn't much difference in colour as the progress works along, it appears as the same colour red almost.

Fanart as you say isn't brilliant but better than none he he

Auto open on subscriptions is working a treat

Join date - is a nice extra - is there any way to make the avatar window a tiny bit wider to NOT allow scrolling of current info, I think this would look much better

Post numbers in full screen view is cool

Quotes within a quote are working nice and are as you say green, along with the quote being blue it's much easier to see what's going on

If I remove a local forum, and re-add it to my m/c from the online data base, the online database graphic had gone blank.

I like the way you have allowed renaming of saved images with an underscore in the title, saves you having to rename the images.

if I'm in a forum and i'm presented with more than one image, the first image I see has a left arrow and a right arrow at the bottom of image,but I couldn't get any key on the keyboard or button on remote to activate the left or right icons to shift to next image, in fact even if there is only one image to view the image is embedded with a left and right make believe icons.It's not a problem as such but it makes you think you can see the next image by pushing right on your remote.Maybe they are best removed.

Also I found out today, which is excellent that you can listen to music from your library while using forum browser.

I have also noticed that bold new threads/posts ARE in other forums than xbmc.org.

I like the fact that you take the time to update the changelog, some developers don't bother

Is there a way you can identify a Tapatalk forum from a forumrunner forum with maybe an icon or text.I'm not sure how to tell the difference but I think the forumrunner forums load a lot quicker and are generally a lot speedier in use.

I've noticed if I press skip back on my remote I can jump a page backwards at post level, with no xbmc messages appearing, same for forwards, but I get a message saying "playlist" "can't find next item to play" but it does actually jump forward a page.

Good idea about the encryption of passwords.
am I right when I say that the padlock icon appears when the ssl option is ticked and the icon is displayed when a secure connection to that forum is made, regardless of weather i'm logged in or not.Can you furher explain in laymans terms for me how you would use the "encryption key file option" what type of file do I browse for or create, what extension does this file have and it's contents?

I've noticed that there is a bit of screen debris left at some points of usage, ie if I click "change forum", then , imeadialtley click back without selecting a forum on my remote i'm left with overlays on screen(I'm not sure if that's what it's called)

can you confirm that the default skin is actually the light skin or are they different?

I've noticed on some forums, that they have headers like xbmc.org did, you removed the headers as they had a blank screen behind them I seem to remember. .The message says "There are no threads in this forum".

I added xbmc4xbox from online database again and it gave me a double entry in my local list.

When in dark skin the spinning icon is only one circle, I think it's the outside one, the inner swirl doesn't appear.

I've been through, all the online forums in the database and here is the forums with problems that I can see.

xbmchub, - blank posts - xbmchub they say they are very close to being ready

xbmc4xbox - has random text at the top of each post in < > these style brackets

dvhk.pl - "error getting posts try again"

isrbja.net - says no threads in this forum on some of the headers

extreme overclocking - says "error getting posts" " post security error user may not have permission" (I solved this message on the holiday truths forum be registering, maybe the message could be changed to "You need to register to see posts")

polygame - error getting forums

zetaminor - error getting forums "unknown encoding application / json

andriod forum - possible time out due to being a big forum

celeb forum - error getting forums, unknown encoding : text / json

maybe to solve a headache for you, delete these troublesome forums, as I added most of them when I was randomly adding forums to the database.

I lost track of the screenshots I was taking, but hopefully they are self explanitory.
Also the logs are from two sessions, you may well see the errors your looking for in there somewhere regarding the ssl/http fall back.
