evewatchesstuff 1 Posted November 8, 2022 Share Posted November 8, 2022 This is phenomenal looking. I've been poking around at building an alternative frontend for emby but this really looks impressive, especially since it seems quite customizable. Would love to get involved in testing this.

Cheesegeezer 3086 Posted November 27, 2022 Author Share Posted November 27, 2022 So, i've completely changed the programming language now. I've moved away from Web Development and I'm using .Net MAUI now. Which is a great for x platform development. Its still very new platform and has it's limitiations but I think that in the next 6 months it's gonna be pretty well rounded and feature rich. It makes sense to me because i can deploy on android, android TV, iOS, MacOs and Windows Desktop. I'm still figuring a lot of stuff out but the basics are there and it's pleasant to work with, quite similar to WMC MVVM structure so i'm feeling quite at home. Routing is bliss!! Templating is also great so and i can write in c# which reduces my learning curve massively. Anyway i looks very similar to the Javascript version i was working on and i'm certainly happy with it so far.

Cheesegeezer 3086 Posted November 30, 2022 Author Share Posted November 30, 2022 that was a lot of work refactoring. I really love the look Now, need to add in indicators on the top menu and thinking of a clean blue underline to show which tab is currently selected. Scrollable Main View that doesnt hinder the side or top menus 4K MOVIES Comedy i still need to add an imageFactory to cator for different scenarios. frickin lush tho… and it really loves a 4k display 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sydlexius 241 Posted December 1, 2022 Share Posted December 1, 2022 (edited) @CheesegeezerWhat's up with the kerning of the text for section headers such as "NEW ADDITIONS"? It seems to be the glyph for I that is broken in particular. Edited December 1, 2022 by sydlexius Found more instances of kerning issues...

Cheesegeezer 3086 Posted December 1, 2022 Author Share Posted December 1, 2022 @Luke have a question chief? what is the deal with desktop implementation in WPF, Xamarin or MAUI, JS or anything these days and the lack of native KeyboardInputCommand implementation? Do you have anything saved from the original WPF MBT that i can steal? As a boiler plate i can integrate. we are just assumed that we are all swipey swipey devs. It’s a lot of work. MAUI is shocking for keyboard interaction, the have Semantic classes which is similar to Aria in JS. But ooooft its hard work and they removed the useful from Xamarin in Maui! cheers bud Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Understood. Regardless, it visually stands out to pedants such as myself I have plenty of fixed width fonts that I use that are properly kerned. What they all seem to have in common is they're either full- or semi-serif fonts (typically full serif for uppercase). I've yet to see a complete sans-serif monospace font that looked good. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cheesegeezer 3086 Posted December 1, 2022 Author Share Posted December 1, 2022 Anyone interested here is some good screenies from the original release back in 2015 for WMC(god rest her soul - i miss it so much) https://emby.media/community/index.php?/topic/17620-iridium-a-new-mbc-theme-coming-soon/&do=findComment&comment=184451 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd love to play around more with XAML to replace some of my PowerShell forms, but without external modules it's horrible to implement...even with some of the modules out there it's still no fun. There's subscription-licensed tools like PowerShell Pro, and perhaps I could give those a try. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yup XAML is actually pretty good, android uses it, windows, etc, but its a standard like an xml file so it makes sense to use something that is and will be constantly supported.

Cheesegeezer 3086 Posted December 14, 2022 Author Share Posted December 14, 2022 Been working on a cool feature. Added in a custom api function to allow users to create their own RAL lists to the home screen. This will let the user chose what they want for every library to be shown. Home screen with size menu implemented. expand the menu and then choose the Custom Library option then play with the options most calls will require a userId and an apiKey, the json option allow for the couple of scenarios where the Json return isn't wrapped in an Items: array Tested without json on return an empty array Test Ran with Json turned on - Returns my custom api call to get top rated items. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
