I think I am pretty satiesfied with with the SharperEdge skins XML files now.
So I am about to make this skin "sharper"
I will redo all XMLs for a higher resolution so the presentation on "high resolution" monitors will give a sharper image and much better font quality.
I dont know that resolution i shall have as a target. New plasmas have a 1024x768 native resolution. Old plasmas have a 848x480 native resolution. But what I don't know is, what resolution you use in the living room. Help me finding out.
This will be a massive work, to adjust all X and Y values manually, so I better get it right from the beginning. I will only do it once, skin file by skin file.
I'm thinking of a 1024x768 skin with a bunch of theme designs
Resolution- Aspect Ratio Factors
720x480 - 1.5 (TV NTSC)
720x576 - 1.25 (TV PAL)
800x600 - 1.33 (Old monitor)
848x480 - 1.77 (Plasma)
1024x768 - 1.33 (Standard monitor)
1280x720 - 1.77 (HDTV 720p resolution)
1280x768 - 1.67
1280x1024 - 1.25
1360x768 - 1.77 (LCD-TV monitor)
1920x1080 - 1.77 (HDTV 1080p resolution)
