Syztemlord 7 Posted November 18, 2013 Share Posted November 18, 2013 Trying out the public Alpha of MBT I can only say, I love it! I can't imagine going back to MBC now. I was wondering if MBT is going to be theme-able and if it is where can I get info on how themes work. I'd like to throw my hat in and create a theme. Any info would be gratefully received. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redshirt 1487 Posted November 18, 2013 Share Posted November 18, 2013 There is some info in the github wiki for MediaBrowser Theater. Also the default theme is developed as a separate assembly so that it can provide a complete example of theme development. It's all on the github link. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great to see some interest. Have you got any ideas yet? There are a few here who can help design, but not code.

Syztemlord 7 Posted November 18, 2013 Author Share Posted November 18, 2013 I've always liked the NEO theme, might be on those lines, something clean. I'm probably better at the designing but I'll have a look at the coding too. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DigiTM 60 Posted November 18, 2013 Share Posted November 18, 2013 I have to admit, I am liking the original default theme in this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Syztemlord 7 Posted November 18, 2013 Author Share Posted November 18, 2013 Roc theme also would be wonderful to see I've been using that theme in MBC, very nice. I have to admit, I am liking the original default theme in this. I agree, it's not bad. Would just like another option Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morgian 7 Posted November 19, 2013 Share Posted November 19, 2013 I love the default appearance very much, but I would love an alternative theme with less shaded backdrops. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pagali 62 Posted November 19, 2013 Share Posted November 19, 2013 Isn't that interesting! I especially love the shaded backdrops because they don't distract as much from the primary images. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 36887 Posted November 19, 2013 Share Posted November 19, 2013 without the fade they're just overwhelming and dominate the foreground content. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morgian 7 Posted November 19, 2013 Share Posted November 19, 2013 Sure, therefore a new theme may need to be built up with that in mind... I'm pretty sure that many users would love it, I remember that this issue was raised already with Neo. Anyway, this is sort of a detail for me, I'm really happy with MBT as such! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pmac 132 Posted November 19, 2013 Share Posted November 19, 2013 I'd like to see something with some flash, like Pearl. I'm using that on MBC right now, and really like it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimmy 12 Posted November 19, 2013 Share Posted November 19, 2013 Will the ROC theme and Crystal theme need to be purchased again for current subscribers? I think lee have mentioned a few days ago that with a small price (maybe in half of current Roc's price) he will publish it for current subscribers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gcw07 347 Posted November 19, 2013 Share Posted November 19, 2013 A ROC theme would be great to see and have an idea of what is possible in creating a MBT theme. While I have no idea what his plans are, outside of a few images, there is absolutely zero overlap with MBC and MBT theme code. So it would have to be built 100% from the ground up. It is basically like starting new. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
