Square Theme: General Help Thread


Recommended Posts

Posted

Hi

 

Hmm I am having the same issues across all themes. Perhaps this is a core bug?

 

Since Chocolate doesn't have a "Last Played" tile or function I'm not sure exactly what the issue is.  Can someone explain in detail?

I'm only seeing this with Square (as you say Chocolate doesn't have "Last Played" and neither does Classic).

 

On Square - selecting the "Last Played" movie - goes to the movies details page and everything except the overview text is displayed.

 

I've also noticed that the on screen play button doesn't work and that if the movie has a trailer then the trailer button doesn't appear.

Please go into one of these and hit the play button and then post the MBC log.  Thanks.

Thanks.  I think I can fix both issues in MBC.

Is there anyway for all the posters to be all the same size. I have different sized posters displaying in "Poster" view and there's to much of a gap between them.

Posted

ST please try with the dev release of MBC I put up today and let me know if it solves these issues.  Thx.

The Last Played item now shows the overview and trailer button (if applicable). And the play and trailer buttons work - great work there @@ebr - thanks.

@@Soultaker - MBC now has "Also here" functionality (as seen in Chocolate) - any chance of implementing that in Square please?

Posted

ST - extremely simple to implement.  Application.OtherAvailableUsers will give you a list of UserItems and then it is UserItem.IsAlsoHere = true/false;

 

However, I'm not sure exactly when the next MBC release will be.  I will probably hold off at least a week due to the server release probably going out this weekend.

Here is what I mean. With Square theme I get this with the posters:

Notice the separation between the posters and how their different sized.

 

With Neo theme it always shows up like this automatically:

Is there some setting that I'm not using? Also, is there a way to have the summery on the left side to always show up. I have to set it again if I go into a box set or another category.

I already see end time and media icons on the TV detail view.

@@Soultaker Would it be possible to have media detail icons and end time display on the series detail view and not just episode detail view? i.e. could we have those details appear on the screen below?:

Okay. I got this fixed. I just increased the size of the posters then decreased then they got fixed.

Hey @@Soultaker any chance of you looking at poster/folder aspect ratios? They're now all stretched to the same size where they didn't used to be. A choice to honour aspect ratios or not would be much appreciated!

Cheers

Is Soultaker still around the place? He was previously quite active on this thread but has not responded to a number of questions for a while now.

Life probably got in the way.  I'm sure he will return when he can.

Sure, I'll have a look and see if it feels right.

Not presently... Hmmm I'll have a think about this request.

Ahh I am around just busy with real-life, as I'm preparing for a three-week exile in the land of no electricity. I have many things to do before then. :)

I just noticed that I do not see the Thumbs.jpg when in movie by Genre view. All I get is the backdrop.jpg. This is in thumb view.

Great to hear. Thanks for the reply.

 

Enjoy (?) your exile :)

I like this theme, its really smooth and fast. On other themes when I press page up it goes to the next video but with this theme it scrolls the page.

 

In the config what does enable next up for tv and display overview do? I don't see any effect from them.

Redshirt recommended that one could ask you soultaker that you could add into square theme the ability to use multi disc games when accessing video game roms.

Please.

 

Thanks,

S.

Ok so I gather @@Soultaker is going away, but when you come back. Specials don't display for me in MBC with square. Fine in the dashboard

Hopefully when ST gets back we can get some updates again for this theme. MBC added the "also here/watching" feature but it doesn't work in Square. It displays but you can't really do anything with it.

 

I'd also really like it if when you load or go back that it didn't put the cursor on the top menu. At least in my experience, you are more likely to want to navigate in the main area (browse, newest, latest, etc.) and not keep changing the section (movies, tv, music, etc.)
