ShowMix 2.1 - New LowList

we are neither involved in the process of getting a stable xbmc build, nor we are waiting for one, so this is a completely different topic. as i said before: whenever we are ready, we will try to make sure showmix runs with whatever version of xbmc will be official then.

That seems to have worked fine, but in some places I am missing images I think. The home screen does not show any backgrounds for example (like the conditioned weather backgrounds). Also when I browse a media section (movies, tv shows) and I want to change the view (to multiplex:art for example), there are no images indicating the layout options for example, except for the "current". Also, it seems not all flags are shown when browsing movies (like studio, rating, are fine, but resolution, audio, etc not).

I am using the latest stable release of XBMC. Did I do something wrong, or is something broken?

(I did search this thread, but with so many pages of posts I did not see the same problem elsewhere. Although this post looks like it, it is not the same issue I experience)

Other than that: I love this skin and app!

too many open options, if you ask me. i advise:

step one: download a full copy of showmix directly from github (don't use the download button though) and try that one instead
step two: go back to a recommended build of xbmc and see if it works there
step three: beg we will be finished with our update soon

the combination of the troubles you mentioned never appeared to me.

Me, and most others I believe, are just using the XBMC scraper for TV shows. It works pretty well, but it would indeed be nice with an "EMM" type program for TV shows (which can do season specific fanarts etc).

Yes. Showmix is not officially supported on Camelot Alpha 1 or Babylon 9.04.1.repack2 at this time. Please use the recommended SVN build. If you use showmix with camelot, well, just be patient with the niggles.. andy and matt will get it fixed eventually.

PS. Matt: Maybe you might want to put an (extra) disclaimer on wiki to say that camelot alpha 1 is not supported at this time?

okej let se...
i have the svn 22528 (the recommended svn) and it runs on ubuntu 9.10
When i run "multiplex" the posters is not loading so fast.. so if i scroll to the right the posters dont popup right away, it takes around 1-2 sec... It dont look very nice when scrolling around the movies..

I dont know if this is just me but. can this be fix in some way?
If i testa Aeon65, it flows much faster....

Ps. Sorry for my bad english....
