buddyweiser 105 Posted July 18, 2014 Share Posted July 18, 2014 Ok @@Cheesegeezer, I think I have this figured out. If I select Upcoming TV then go up browse etc, then go over to another library and click something in the EHS, the strange behavior results. However, if I select Next Up under Tv Shows, then browse and go to another library and select something in the EHS, behavior is fine. Next Up appears to be the only one that provides accurate navigation. I figured this out after downloading the dll you posted above, then updated to 27 and confirmed the behavior there as well. Hope this helps, and MUCH THANKS for the continued support on this issue! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buddyweiser 105 Posted July 18, 2014 Share Posted July 18, 2014 @@Cheesegeezer, indeed, I have lily pad setup, but I have a default profile in Xpadder for mouse movement/basic Windows controls. So when I open ps2 emulator from MBC, my wmc xpadder profile unloads, and the default profile auto loads. However, there is an option in xpadder to ignore the default profile if certain programs are launched, but this doesn't work properly for ps2 emulator. It works fine if I manually close xpadder before I open ps2 emulator... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What about New/Unwatched/Watched or Resume.... how does it react with TVshows and navigation then? Just trying to get it clear..... I had to write so much code to remember the states of the TVShow's RAL i could quite easily have buggered up some of my logic there which is why it isn't setting properly.

buddyweiser 105 Posted July 19, 2014 Share Posted July 19, 2014 0.0.0.26 Localized Strings implemented!!!! Wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. only took 2.5hrs. Layout in the xml file you can edit, is laid out with headers so you can easily nav to the section you want to change wording for. Should be the final beta. Have a real good play with it people. I'll put the champas on ice, but won't be cracking it open just yet..... i'm sure one of you will break it Oh no, it seems the "EHS navigation ghost" has returned WHAT DID YOU DO CHEESE Other than that, not sure what "localized strings implemented" means, so cant really test that but I don't edit xml files anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheesegeezer 3086 Posted July 19, 2014 Author Share Posted July 19, 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. I have a feeling it may be to do with your screen resolution. Have you set up your tv thru media center wizard in terms of inputs, resolutions etc, it may help. Anyways enjoy your weekend away and we'll catch up next week some time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Localized strings can be found here - C:\ProgramData\MediaBrowser-Classic\Localization\Xenon-strings-en.Xml Basically what it means is if you are from Kenya and want to use a local language of Swahili instead of English you can copy and paste the Xenon-strings-en file and rename it stringsXenon-strings-Swa.xml and edit all of the common labels such as NEW, UNWATCHED, PLAY, REVIEWS, etc, you get the idea and then, I believe this is how it works, MBC will then look at your location from MBS and use the appropriate localized strings for your country/language. So even if you didn't like the Label "Future Episodes" in the Upcoming TV RAL, you could go in and change it to something you preferred like "UPCOMING TV" and after a restart your new label would be shown. Hope that makes sense. As for your PS2 emu..... defo sounds like Xpadder isn't honouring it..... however MBC is still in the background when PCSX2 launches, so it will never truely let go of that profile.

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? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yardameus 220 Posted July 19, 2014 Share Posted July 19, 2014 So far, looks good to me. I would say, make the final details page take the same background alpha overlay as the previous (coverflow etc..) page. That way on backdrops with lighter backgrounds, the play, trailers, overview, actors, etc.. is readable. I'll share a screenshot if you're not sure what I'm talking about. Not so much of a bug, so it could be something implemented later on. Just a little tweak. Browsing and EHS seem nice and smooth to me now though. So glad you made this theme and are part of the theme developers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you set up your tv thru media center wizard in terms of inputs, resolutions etc, it may help. Anyways enjoy your weekend away and we'll catch up next week some time I tried playing around with resolutions today, changing the resolutions and testing the navigation in Xenon. Of the handful of different resolutions that I tried, they all had the same navigation. I am at a loss to explain this. On the one hand, I think it has to be in Xenon, because none of the other themes that I use has this navigation issue. On the other hand, I can't believe it's Xenon, because no one else is able to reproduce these issues. So frustrating! Apart from the EHS navigation, I am still loving Xenon(well, at the moment it's a love/hate relationship ). One (hopefully small) thing I would like to see in music is to be able to cue up individual songs to the playing list, as it is rare that you would want to add an entire album when listening to music. Possibly a small + next to the song name would be nice. Not sure how easily this could be implemented. I haven't been able to find any bugs, that I haven't previously mentioned.

I'll percevere with trying to get to the bottom of the Nav issues. As for queuing single songs you can press the "*" asterix button on your keyboard or have it set up on your xpadder. This will bring up the context menu and at the bottom of the list you can queue individual songs. But I do like the idea of the + sign. I could add this easily.
