Cheesegeezer 3087 Posted July 16, 2014 Author Share Posted July 16, 2014 @@yardameus is correct, the Day of the week is pushing the clock off screen. I am pretty sure that the clock has been edited using MediaCenterThemer to include the week day. Here's the screenshot showing this. unlike yardameus, I didn't participate in the alpha, and only installed the beta through MBC, but I DID delete the files you requested, to no effect. Ah ok, if its MCT , i'll look at just ensuring its anchored to the right hand side, and elongating the background, to accommodate MCT's interferring I'll add in a the global option for clock on all views, however there will always be to date/time and weather on home screen, thats how the theme is designed and i'm not going to change it. I need to update the first page too. But i dont think its necessary as there are only a few things to sort.

Cheesegeezer 3087 Posted July 16, 2014 Author Share Posted July 16, 2014 Well I finally got home and after a long time away and all my hard work, I finally got to see my own theme on the big screen (55") And I have to say.... I love it!!! Well Done Mr Cheese . A bit of self praise doesn't hurt anyone hahaha. So anyways on the flight i was working on the clock and date things you have mentioned previously and they should be all sorted now For next release 0.0.0.23 -------------------------------- EHS date/time issues should be sorted now Global clock config option is implemented - if enabled and not on EHS screen you should see clock above the config panel (top right) - Clock/Date/Weather will always be present on EHS. Will add Season and episode titles to Thumbstrip view. Might implement the DiscArt in the next release, just need to figure out best placement for it. (P.S. - there will be no animated disc rolling around, as this will hinder extender users) I'm gonna fire up the 360 now and check it's performance and layout. @@BAS has given me a few issues to get through on the extender side of things. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ebr 14935 Posted July 16, 2014 Share Posted July 16, 2014 Your first point.... it makes no odds regarding whether the play panel is there or not, if you press play it tells you that you don't have the item in your collection, if you click actors, you can see the cast for that episode.. if you click on chapters it tells you that there are no chapters.. Alternatively I can create a new page for Upcoming TV items and give it it's own layout. Item has IsPlayable and HasChapterInfo so that you can conditionally hide those buttons when they don't make sense. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheesegeezer 3087 Posted July 18, 2014 Author Share Posted July 18, 2014 So i managed to do some more bits today, I found i can force the date not to use the day, so can add that. I put in the global option HD overlay for thumbstrip Removed non applicable buttons on final detail page Next/prev button removed for upcoming TV items Now i have consoles appearing i should be able to tweak the layout so that it fits nicely, however i can only check if its a console item, so for n64 where it shows thumbs generally it will be shifted but any other consoles that prefer posters, the posters will be shifted also. It may work out pretty good tho, i have confidence. I'll put the update up tomorrow morning some time.

Yeah I just checked with november and it seems fine, had to tweak the background graphic but it's all good here. You don't need to use anything like xpadder or PinnacleGameProfiler with PCSX2. It has a built in plugin which you should used called lilypad. Go to Config then find "Controllers (PAD)" expand the menu and select Plugin Settings This is how I have mine set up for Xbox 360 Controller GENERAL TAB ------------------- PAD1 TAB ------------- VIDEO SETTINGS ----------------------- Go into Config and under Video (GS) and select CoreGS Settings..... Ensure your settings are exactly the same as mine. Especially the speedhacks one notice the slider is on 2. The screen shot below has multiple images so just select the image you want but start from the first option which is EE/IOP. http://imgur.com/a/BZ3Ca After that Go back into the Video (GS) and this time go into plugin settings. Not sure how powerful your GFX card is but this is where you can increase the quality of the video. This is how I have mine AUDIO SETTINGS ----------------------- And Finally this is how my Audio is.

Cheesegeezer 3087 Posted July 18, 2014 Author Share Posted July 18, 2014 Actually I just fixed it. I was having xpadder ignore the default upon launching pcsx2 previously. I just made a blank profile to launch with pcsx2 and that has it sorted. I needed a profile anyway, so that u could make a close window command. In all of my games it is LB+Back button. For advanced options(save/load/close window) I have a button combo setup so that those don't get accidentally pressed. It's quite handy, @@shaefurr helped me get it all sorted with the sets in xpadder. As for the EHS, maybe the fix was a fluke? Is there any possible way I can get a copy of the version 25.dll? Just to see if it is fixed in that version? Glad you got it all sorted with ps2 emu. Here's 25.dll for you https://www.dropbox.com/s/i5sqww7lcocco20/Xenon.dll let me know how you get on mate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buddyweiser 105 Posted July 18, 2014 Share Posted July 18, 2014 My resolution is 1176x664(if I remember correctly)if I set it higher, part of the windows screen gets cut off on all sides. I have one of the first Samsung let's so I assume that's why it doesn't display properly? And zero overseas padding. Other than ehs issues, everything looks great. I'm away for the weekend so can't check on things specifically but nothing bad/no bugs stand out in my memory. Other than some features that I want to request once xenon goes to release Oh, and I'm getting some performance issues with pcsx2, I might not have the hardware to support it, but that's off topic.
