Hi Wanilton,

Have you seen the video of James in which he controls XBMC? The views of music albums and film cover, I would have loved. What do I have to choose AEON? I've tried a lot (Showcase, Multiplex ...), the view remains the same, I see the tracks left and right are only a cover. What am I doing wrong?

Greetings Kalle

It sounds like you don't have the album art. Each of my album directories has a file named "folder.jpg" which is an image of the cover. That is probably what you need.

In MediaMonkey you can get album covers by selecting all the songs in an album and then using "Auto tag from web" (Ctrl-L)

There are also special programs just for downloading album covers but I can't recommend any since I don't use them.

Hello Kalle,

James guided him properly, a chance to fix this is via XBMC on settings, Music, select the option to download additional information on inclusion.
Or you can set on a case by pressing the letter i of info, and sending recharge, it will search the data of the artist and album, mostly low and the fanart album cover, but I prefer to do as James, organize everything outside of XBMC using Mp3tag for music and the program Emmber Media Manager for movies and series TV, both without charge.

Looks really great. I'm looking forward to getting the skin update.

the only complaint I have, purely from a VC point of view, is that your voice is too quiet. I have had the same problem myself when making demos, more than once. It is hard to get a good balance of volume for voice versus xbmc sounds, and you don't know what it sounds like until you are finished making the whole the demo. Anyway I am just being picky. It's still great. Hopefully lots of people will see it!

Did Marcos add new buttons for controlling music from the home screen?

Is the mouse menu that pops up at the bottom when watching video still broken (i.e. does not respond to mouse clicks) ?

Thanks W!

James,

that sound you hear is when I switch from on to off via amulet, a sound that I can not get in the vox I delete all the audio settings, but still have to change this sound On and off, do not know the source.
Now all the buttons work also with the use of mouse, 100% ... and yes there are new controls in the home menu for music and too a miniplayer, just press M it will appear.

Are you sure you the setting for vox off sound in options is completely blank? No spaces?

does it make this sound if you turn off by other means, like clicking the red mic icon?

does it happen if you use the old amulet usb monitor (version 1.0) ?

The next version will check if the sound file exists before trying to play, but I don't know if this is what is causing this sound for you or not.

James,

In settings of vox, options with blank spaces in sounds on and off, now it´s ok.

Thanks,

Wanilton

Hi Wanilton,

when is the new skin available? Can I update the version 2.51?

Greetings Kalle

jitterjames · « **Reply #11 on:** February 11, 2011, 07:28:38 PM »

I think the answer is "soon" and the skin version will be 2.6.1

Already gone from beta to release candidate 1, we are in final testing, but had a lot of change, just requires a lot of testing to try to deliver the most accurate possible. Another week at most I think, and yes new version is 2.6.1
