Hi Guys,
I whole heartedly agree.
Fanart is lovely, but when one has 800 movies and a billion series, then 
one is more interested in finding what they want, rather than seeing 
pretty pictures.
I am bland of ideas, but I do wish that some magician would come up with 
a great idea that allows you to see more (titles), and more of, each 
title name.


If you guys have pointers to URLs I can download other themes or 
file-list layouts from, let's have em (please).


My 2c

Regards to all,
Zoltan

As a non-fanart user, I agree. Maybe we need two themes - a fanart-heavy 
one, and the existing one.

Agreed - it seems like a waste of screen to keep most of it clear for
fanart and confine the actual list of recordings to a few lines at the
bottom.

I value the number of recordings in the list above all else (after
all, I'm there to select a recording). The change to 11 recordings per
page was the best thing to ever happen to Mythbuntu theme. Please

[ubuntu-mythtv] Mythbuntu theme feedback. Changes are a coming

2013-08-30 Thread Thomas Mashos
I've made some changes to the Mythbuntu theme for 0.27. Only to the
recording and video (browser view) screens. I did this to try and show
more fanart. Here are some screenshots

http://imagebin.org/269181
http://imagebin.org/269182
http://imagebin.org/269183

Notice on the first two one is with the group highlighted, the other
is with the recordings highlighted. The recordings shift to the left
side when active in order to show the description on the right.

The last one is the mythvideo one, it still shows the fanart on the
complete background, but for some reason it didn't grab the background
when I did the screenshot via SSH


Thanks,

Thomas Mashos
