2008-Sep-21 : Skin & Skinplugin Version 3.2.3 Released.
*TV Guide update.
Guides all follow sub's method, however, Reflect default is Number+Icon instead of Icon+Name.

2009-Apr-30 : Version 4.0.1 Released.

Mostly bug fixes with one or two usability enhancments (warning popups when applying themes). Recommended to download and install if you are using a mixture of SD and HD editions or running MVP clients. If you are running multiple editions I would also recommend uninstalling any previous versions first or else the SkinPlugin may still show incorrect previews.

Change list:

• Fixed issue when using both SD and WS on the same machine which caused the SkinPlugin to show incorrect previews and/or have trouble appling Skin edits or themes.
  
• Added info popup saying that the MVP needs to be restarted in order for Skin edits and theme changes to be applied.
  
• Added When running on the MVP a popup is shown when applying changes
  
• Fixed issue which would cause the default size for the TV Guide text appears huge on some systems.
  
• Minor graphical edits to stop shimmer on the MVP with use of the CS Blue MVP theme.

2009-May-28 : Version 4.0.2 Released.

Mostly bug fixes, biggest change is the performance improvement when browsing options. In tests I've found it to be 2x-4x quicker

Change list:

• Significant (2x-4x) performance improvement when browsing options using the SkinPlugin.
  
• Removed superfluous ‘missing DLL’ debug messages .
  
• Updated version number displayed in ‘System’ screen.
  
• Fixed OSD aspect ratio text wrapping issue when in ‘remove letterbox’ mode.
  
• Minor wording edit on the ‘apply theme…’ popup.

2009-Aug-03 : Version 4.0.3 -SD Released.

• Fixed MusicLibrary2 errors that caused it to not work with CS4-WS. (Not yet released)
  
• This led to a discovery of a discrepancy between -SD and -WS legacy baseskin.xml files, which prompted a change to both of those files.
  
• Updated the screen name text in supported legacy plugins to new method.
  
• Updated Xrecord Suite to harmonized baseskin.xml change.
  
• Updated Calendar to harmonized baseskin.xml change.
  
• Added Check Email as a supported plugin.
  
• Added FilesPlugin as a supported plugin.
  
• Added UbuStream\Ubu Radio as a supported plugin (Needs testing by users).
  
• Added Stocks plugin as a supported plugin.
  
• Hairy has created a Blu-Ray task image per user request. (Thank you Hairy)
  
• Revised the installer to only create one link to uninstall the -SD or -WS skin, not one link per version release number.
  

The widescreen version is going to be approx. one week later.

28th August 2009 : Version 4.0.4 Released
