Nice Jezz looking good, Will update when I get home.

Noticed a tiny indifference with the twist of the widget, which would look good on the media and program menus,

When in the system menu the active menu is highlighted the others are dimmed. Should be an easy one to update.

I also have the small font issue, mainly with the script pages, ie apple movies, I use standard widescreen on a 26" Sony Trinitron CRT

Let me just say WOW! I know it was mentioned earylier, but none the less it's flattering to see such action take place after my post. And even then, the screens look better than I ever invisioned; the blue shadowinging under the wrap views really give the skin a 3D appearance. Forget about what I said regarding the over use of the blue, you almost need it in this view to capture this particular effect. It looks as if the media is physically within arms reach.


I noticed this in clarity too, so it must be an XBMC issue; when you apply Wrap as the default view within settings it changes it to list.


I'm new to SVN but since I've been using it, I don't know how the community has been so productive without it. It only makes perfect sense to download the files that have been changed but it's too difficult with out help from a 3rd party like TortoiseSVN. If you don't have it, get it... it saves on everyones bandwidth. My question for Jezz is, "Is the roll reversed for the author?" I mean, do you have to upload it to SF or leave it on your desktop and just update the SVN when you change a file?

Jezz_X
yeah I only have to upload what I change or add
djdafreund
Damn you Jezz!!! Just when i make a hard decision to flip back to the PM3 skin, you keep making new changes to an already great skin, making it even hard to decide which of the 2 to use mostly. THanks so much. It's really an amazing skin. I like a lot of others out there, but i LOVE mostly the horizontal content (IE-Shows the most amount of movies/cd's on screen utilizing most of the screen, that PM3 doesn't have, although i'm still thinking of working on a Horizontal PM3 formatted version.)
And i L-O-V-E the blue theme, looks REALLY nice. Thanks for the constant great updates you and Ninet9mustang do on this skin!!! All the work is highly appreciated. I'd buy ya a beer if i lived close by.
cayotic
Could you also add the script enabling media info during video playback created by donabi. It displays the thumb and a some additional information about the file in use.

Oh and have you done anything about the font issue in 4:3 CRT? I changed the font size just 2 sizes up and it is perfect. I just changed the Font.xml in the NTSC folder #18 and both #14's. Except #14 I only raised 1 size. Makes the RSS feed easier to read and then the movie, TV, Music etc Info is ALOT easier to read. If that conflicts with LCD's or whatever, maybe you can add an aditional Font Pack so it can be selected from the fonts setting?
PimpTwzt
16, NOT 18 sorry.
Jezz_X
Just added 2 new font types Default_Big and Arial hopefully should be a little better for those who can't read the current

Also added the media info stuff to video full screen people have been asking for

IPB Image
PimpTwzt
Beautiful, great work thanx.
cayotic
Hey Jezz?

I just checked out Containment and I noticed a couple things that might be useful if intergrated into the Vision Skin.

In big/small wrap view it forces all thumbs to display at a predetermined size. Since you added the wrap in vision, I've been wanting to re-create my thumbs to make them all the same size. It looks sloppy having my thumbs different sizes. I cut my thumbs up in photoshop when they have useless banners across the top like 'platinum'.


Vision does bring the highlighted media forward where Containment just makes the highlighted media thumbs larger. I do like how Containment doesn't have any media info, but I also see the benefits of it especially if tagged with IMDB info. This should be a user defined setting (On/Off).


Add wrap view to programs so Xbox games can be displayed in the same manner as a DVD. Since they are the same dimensions. I got rid of all tilt thumbs for Xbox because the reflection looks so nice!
Fused0ne
I disagree on the pre-determined size in wrap. Thats about the only thing I do not like in containment.

It will smash or stretch an image to fit the predetermined size and make it look awfull.

Great work, Thnx very much Jezz. biggrin.gif

There is a bug while playing music the album art is displayed in this view when it should be the icons
IPB Image
Jezz_X
its not a bug I talked it over with Ninet9mustang and he said that way was fine. Can easily change it the other way if people desire it
skyzerr33
ok smile.gif I think the album art should be only displayed in the neutral position
It just seems strange that the icons show for game music etc but in the settings it's the album art
Any other opinions?
cayotic
what he said...

it makes sense to only see the album art in the 'neutral' position. But I could see an argument being made for the later.

I prefer the way it is but I wouldn't get all butt-hurt over it. Honestly, there's bigger fish to fry with this skin.


NEXT!
Fred_PJ
I also agree, it makes more sense.
Jezz_X
Ok guys cover art removed when in system positon is in svn now

First I thought I would note that the new media info has a perfect slow fade, but the progress bar at the top fades out a lot faster. They should be matched up. But that brings me to a question. Any work going to be done with the progress bar so it blends with the skin better? Like maybe just get rid of the blue lined black box and just make it like the volume. Maybe even just put the progress at the bottom so it blends in with the media info? Sound like a good idea, or even posible? I will work on a photoChop and post it when I'm finished in case you dont know what I'm talking about. smile.gif
PimpTwzt
Ok did some quick photochopping...

Here is what I think would be perfect. Just put the progress bar in the media info. Looks good down there.

IPB Image

Second one is just modding the existing progress box to look something like this.

IPB Image

Now I took this screenshot as soon as I hit the white button to close the info. As you can see the progress bar already faded out and the media info is still fading.

IPB Image

And here we see how the volume overlaps the media info. I don't know what you can do here except to maybe throw the volume up in the middle of the screen. It isn't up very long so I can't see why that would bother anyone. Maybe even lower the Media info a bit too so that the volume clears everything including the DVD Cover.

IPB Image

And one more thing. The XBMC has integrated that new favorites tab now. That would be perfect to use with the down button on the home screen. Get rid of the scripts and Eject DVD. You can eject the DVD or open contents in the filemanager. But I bet your guys already thought of that.
Anyways, great work and thank you 9Tnine and JezzX.

First of all, really great skin the best so far smile.gif.

I havent read this thread completely so this is maybe a known issue,
i have StarTrek:TNG on my laptop and want to play it over smb-share.
Under Mayhem III it works just fine. But when i try it with Vision, the scrolling of the filename(list1) stops shortly as if the xbox would start to play the file but next second its right back to the list view.It a DivX 5 file.
The strange thing the next episode works fine. I testet some episodes, they are all encoded the same way but some of them show the same behavior. Under the Mayhem skin they all work. I use revision 733.

rgs
rollin

p.s.: i tested some other films and a lot of files behave this way. strange.
k4br0n
First, thanks for all the development en devotion which makes Vision my favourite skin!

I also love the favourites menu of PMIII that comes with the new T3CH build. Can this also be implemented for Vision instead of the Submenu but keeping the 'open/close tray' option?

Keep up the good work!

Any chance we'll see the new Favorites feature implemented in Vision like in PM3?
jmarshall
Jezz_X is extremely busy - he's in charge of PM3 and XBox-Classic and is the main coder on Mc360 and Vision, and helps out with virtually all other skins available. Without him, we wouldn't have most of the skins we have now (and those in charge of other skins would confirm this!)

There's been 4 new dialogs added in the last week or so, which he has had a lot of input into, so obviously it's going to take a while before he has time to implement them in the skins other than PM3.

It takes hours to do a good implementation of a single new dialog, and he has 4 of them to work on, over 4 different skins.

Have a little patience - he's working on it.

Cheers,
Jonathan

Ok let me step in and say yes I'm very busy and thanks jmarshall for the compliment I wish this forum had a blush smiley.
But I would also like to point out that I do nothing that anyone who takes the time to actually learn how to do couldn't so its just practice and commitment. wink.gif .
On that note if anyone wants to code up some stuff for vision and submit a code patch here if its up to standards and useable for a wide range of people and not just themselves I will consider adding it the the main skin after I run it by Ninet9mustang off course (And I mean little things 1 at a time not redoing the whole skin in one hit)

What I would really love someone to do is actually make the skins for the guibuilder and Window XML scripts like Apple Movie Trailers, XBMC Lyrics and all the other skinning ones. So I can finally add buttons for them into the skin smile.gif
skyzerr33
I was bored today so i knocked up a theme for my favorite skin
hopefully we see a few more themes come rolling in after this. And also hope Ninet9mustang is still
working on the Titanium & ProjectMayhemThree themes smile.gif

All we need now is the colour change script like in mc360 to change the blue fonts biggrin.gif

I love these new color themes guys. I've been waiting for this. I think I suggested it to 9tninemustang awhile back and he said he liked the idea and would work on that. I guess this is one less thing he needs to worry about. I love the green too, for some reason it looks like you can eat it... lol. I used the orange all night last night too. Looks very nice. A good suggestion would be to make all the different colored themes start at random each time you turn on XBMC. That would be cool.
