sassari - widescreen skin

[dottore]

here's a working shot from the photo library. tv-guide and main menu work, photo library's icon view too.

the guy on the bottom right is dottore ;-) thank god, there is a overlay ;-)

i don't understand... do you mean the basic plugins?

Yes, the basic library programs. Being able to manipulate the location and how the file name is displayed, like your example code.

[dottore]

i think, we should post a wishlist in the forum: sub, please change the music and video library to act like the photo library!

you will see the difference in this skin....

[dottore]

I have decided to make 1280x720. native 16:9 and upscaling to 1366 isn't that bad. 1900 is too much for a pvr's memory using gbpvr ;-).

and for now the poll goes to 1280.

maybe... it is totally made for 16:9 as you can see (sidebar for instance). but when there is enough interest, i will make a 4:3-version too...

Count me in for a 4:3 version as well. My GBPVR box only has an S-Video out, so it is connected to my regular TV set. But after seeing this skin, I'm considering buying a better card and lugging the PVR upstairs to my widescreen HDTV, but If you can make a 4:3 version it would save me the hassle, haha. Very nice skin, best I've ever seen for GBPVR.

skinning music and video-library is quite annoying. but i will go through it.... (nearly finished!!!!), then osd, then recording and a few other things.... it will take some time! a 4:3-version will take even longer.....

[dottore]

how much information fit on a screen? again i wish i had a widescreen-tv! there are 10 channels in this guide!

the picture at the bottom shows a popup.

by the way, i have finished skinning on following elements:
- main menu
- tvguide
- music library
- video library
- photo library

what comes next:
- recordings
- search guide
- fm radio
- net radio
- system
- live tv / osd

i hope you do the my series plugins, because im thinking about switching to this skin aswell.

[sub]

The Video Library and Music Library have been rewritten for the next release. Functionality and appearance is pretty much the same as before, but this time it is much more skinnable (similar to Photo Library).

[dottore]

sure i will do. i use them too ;-)
the list i posted is concerning the release of this skin. after releasing it, the next thing to do is skin other plugins, that means the my-series of course and others depending on skinnability and user wishes.

edit: uh, sub was faster ;-) my reply was related to revens post.
thanks for rewriting the basic plugins. i asume, they will behave like photo library then. thats good news.
