ebr 14913 Posted November 30, 2013 Author Share Posted November 30, 2013 You're starting to make the rest of chocolate look dated ebr Pretty soon you'll get roped into re-doing the whole UI... Been working on a new detail screen. Basically, I hope to create a path to a more modern look if you choose the right views or to keep the legacy look (mostly) if you choose other views. But, you may end up being right... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steven 141 Posted November 30, 2013 Share Posted November 30, 2013 I really think Chocolate should be the default theme for MBC as there could be many non-tweakers that miss this great theme. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would it be possible to add these please? Or am I missing something. I agree with @@Steven, Chocolate should be the default theme. TIA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scotsman 1 Posted December 1, 2013 Share Posted December 1, 2013 It doesn't actually mask the backdrop much at all but the backdrop is reduced in size. Today I added an option of whether or not to show the details in coverflow. Default will be yes. Has this been pushed to the theme yet? If so, how do we disable it? I looked everywhere. I think it entirely ruins the home screen. I don't want a list of things inside the current selected folder. Apart from that, the theme is almost perfect!

Logos302 86 Posted December 1, 2013 Share Posted December 1, 2013 (edited) I like chocolate very much, it might be my favourite theme. I was kinda hoping it would be ported the MBT. In fact I think their should be one theme for all clients that is similar or the same if possible to give a unified view/experience for users.

yardameus 220 Posted December 1, 2013 Share Posted December 1, 2013 I already loved Chocolate, and if you're going to pick something to start off with, you couldn't do much better. Thanks for doing all the work you do, ebr. That, and for putting up with all of our gripes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which you may or may not like, but it is time for a MBC theme to have a more modern look and Chocolate is going to be it. I have installed the last beta and in effect I found a "visible" change in the TV series detail page. It's different: I cannot say it's bad or good. I was so used to seeing the previous page layout that was a surprise for me see a change here. Sorry but at the moment cannot say more: It's different.

yardameus 220 Posted December 15, 2013 Share Posted December 15, 2013 One request, if disabling the overview in coverflow, is it possible to either still have the title (just how it is with the overview) or above the posters (maybe just to the left of the selected item, centered on the screen). Not a huge rush for me, just a thought for the next time you make any related changes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebr 14913 Posted December 15, 2013 Author Share Posted December 15, 2013 I'm not really inclined to do that because some people won't want it and then I'd have to make another option which just complicates things more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
