MBC Theme - Xenon Beta Released:


Recommended Posts

I think everything you are experiencing there is standard behavior in MBC and not xenon specific.

 

If you "play" something, it will take you to the player, but if you "queue" something, the assumption is that you want to probably queue more things so it doesn't take you to the player.

 

However, the normal skip operations with a remote control should still operate and you should be able to use the "Now playing" button (not sure where it is on xenon) when music is playing to go directly to the music player from any MBC screen.

What is the shortcut for skip in mbc so i can check it against my mapped buttons when i get a chance. Its possible i have something else mapped for skip as multiple shortcuts can sometimes do the same thing

Ctrl+shift+F - that's a lie that's FFW not skip FWD

Mr Cheese,

 

Just struck a couple of bugs when selecting TV on the EHS and then going to change the Nextup ,unwatched,watched and new, if you click on the unwatched or in fact any of them it does not change it from nextup.Also some thumbs are not showing on the EHS.

 

Using .0.0.0.12.

 

Little vid attached to show what is happening,sorry about quality.

 

Cheers

@@Cheesegeezer I made the video I told you showing the behavior I mentioned yesterday. What is happening is, when I click on an item in say, games, if I backout, the focus is no longer on games, it is on tv shows. Then, if I click the down arrow, the focus is on movies. Also, if you click on Movies, or Music or Games, to view them all, and then backout, the focus is then on the "Unwatched" or "New" or whatever you had selected, in the top instead of on the main icons of the EHS(Music, Movies, Games etc), It's really confusing. Here is the vid.

If you need a better copy I have a much larger vid file that I re-encoded to decrease size.

Hey there,

 

Thanks for the video..... that is some very strange behaviour you are experiencing.... what now makes this hard is that i can't reproduce the same behaviour.

 

Do you have a keyboard to hand, and try navigating using Arrow keys, Enter to select and Backspace to go back.

I know it's probably not the Xpadder but just to give me piece of mind.

 

Many Thanks

I just gave it a quick go, and same behavior with the keyboard. Am I the only one seeing this behavior? If so I wonder what is specific to my setup that could be causing this... :wacko:

I don't know, i can have a play with the code and see if I can fix this..... but it's gonna be tough as I can't repro myself.

 

so may set up another thread just for us to keep a track of testing alternatively are you on skype?

 

I am going to be very busy today as I have to do some well integrity surveys and analysis for BP on a well of theirs but probably tomorrow we can get cracking at this.

I don't have a webcam, or even a microphone to skype with. The thread will have to do, unless we can both be in the chatroom at the same time.

Got 95% of the folder options hooked up now. So there is just a couple to do now.

 

Thanks to @@ebr for fixing the backdrops not showing up. That should all be working now. So first choice on EHS is Thumbs, then backdrops and finally posters.

 

Feature requests

I plan on implementing a choice to show posters or thumbs for applicable views now this that image logic is fixed in the core, and also to implement the next/prev buttons on final detail page for the next release.

I'm using the standard watched icons from MBC core, this keeps standardization across the board then, so no matter what theme you end up settling on you will know what they mean.

Ok, I think i know what the issue is here, and I have fixed it, which will be ready on the next release. Problem was that no thumb sizes were being saved for each folder. 

 

Try this..... in the view with the blue screen, open up the config, go to View Options and keep reducing the thumb size, see if they appear at some point.

That didn't work, So there is no way of getting rid of the white border at least?

Leave it with me with regards to icons.

 

As for this collection of yours with blue screen, what does it look like in the web dashboard?

Don't forget about the overview not quite fitting in the final details page.

Glad to see how this theme is flying along now.  All little bits and pieces.  Overall very functional, polished, and sure to please many a user.  Good work on this.

A few things I noticed in his screen shot:

 

1) the green ticks are scaling very poorly.  That might be his screen shot...  They are changed to Red in the new beta so maybe that will help.

2) the unwatched markers are the old ones (square blue)

3) one of the unwatched markers is the really old one (blue star).  How the heck did that happen on just one item?

I'm aware of them, and working on them at the minute.... there are a few things i'm not happy with the Thumbstrip view and may have to re-write a large portion, so was holding off for the time being.

 

The images, i just get from MediaBrowser.Resources/images in mcml so if you change them in the core, they should change in my theme, this keeps standardization.

 

When you say new beta, are you refering to 193 or the next one?
