Community Skin version 1.0 released.

Fatman,

Here is a screenshot of my recordings screen. Is there anything that can be done about really long titles like the one attached?

Brian, I'll fix that in what I release today.

Jam, that had been fixed. (Reported back in post #85)

Just noticed something..
I had applied the Mayhem3 skin then switched to the Avance skin..
after doing so the unselectedbuttons still have the image for Mayhem3.
see screenshot

EDIT
I seem to be getting a lot of copy failed messages...probably nothing to worry on your end.

Let me know if this keeps up. I might try it myself to see.

Hey, not sure why but it seems whenever I try to change skins I get a lot of failed copies.
I have tried this on a couple different machines and both get failed copies.
Anything I could look for to solve this? Do these fails get logged anywhere?

[Fatman_do]

I found and just now fixed the Avance theme problem.

edit skinplugin\themes\avance.xml

Code:

<ThemeItem skinItemName="NormalButtonEditableSkinItem" type="SingleImage" image="%IMAGESETDIR%\Buttons\Avance\[B]FaintWhite.png[/B]"/>

(this line has FaintWhite.png.png)

What other problems did you find? They are related to these theme xml files, and sometimes I have found that the names are case sensitive. I have found this before and this maybe happening again. When it calls for WhateverImage.png, it will not copy WhateverImage.PNG

You mostly will see copy errors related to task images, which for the most part, are ok since there are multiple methods to produce that task image.

As far as I know, the plugin doesn't log these changes.

[Carlito]

I think most/all of the other failed copies were task images.
Is there a way to capture the output to a file?

Another issue I had was when I was using the Screen Saver Plugin I would get an error stating ' Error: C:\Program Files\Devnz\gbpvr\.\skin\Community\ScreenSaverPlugin\TV Channel Screen Saver\preview.jpg'
I would get this error if i tried clicking the main menu button for screen saver or it would pop up as a windows error when the screen saver was supposed to come on and gbpvr would quit.

EDIT - The exact error is
System.IO.FileNotFoundException: C:\Program Files\devnz\gbpvr\.\skin\Community\ScreenSaverPlugin\TV Channel Screen Saver\preview.jpg
