HPBEME:
Hey Marko, when I load your "frame test" skin and downscale from 3840x1840 to 1920x1080 (and 1920x1200), and then set the windows scale to 125%, I get this:

which looks the same as the spinner dialog borders that zybex posted.

In all that testing we did, I kept foolishly hoping that downscaling from 4k to 2k was the problem... that, if things looked good on my native 4k, then it would look good at native 2k, and the downscaling is what caused the display discrepancy. 

But every time, whatever issue I saw in downscaled 2k, you saw the same thing at native 2k... except for now?  I have tested this over the course of the entire day: I signed off/on between changes, rebooted between changes... I tested 2k 100%, 125%, 150%, 175%...  I tested 4k 200%, 225%, 250%, 300%... I tested different XML settings for rows, columns, and cell inputs... and the big ugly border discontinuity above was repeated over and over.  So I am baffled that the test file somehow works on your machine and not mine.

In any event, I re-did the border images differently this time (and now use 4 scale steps for each image). I ran thru all the same combinations above with the new border, and it works quite well... hallelujah!
     At 2K:  perfect at 100% and 175%, slight border discontinuity at 125% and 150%
     At 4K:  perfect at 200% and 300%, slight border discontinuity at 225% and 250%

Picture below shows the "new" discontinuity. Slightly more noticeable at 2k than 4k (where you can barely see it at all), but pretty darn good, and a huge improvement over what it was.


I will upload the updated skin later tonight or tomorrow - I want to do a little more testing.  I also think I will remove the skin attachment from this thread and point everyone to the accessories page - it is confusing to have 2 different download locations (and more work for me to maintain both). Plus! The accessory page includes the skin package auto-installer to make it easier for everyone.  I will be leaning on Bob (forum admin) to update that MJP file once I provide the updated files tonight/tomorrow. Bob, it would be great if you could get that download counter working again... any chance of that?

zybex:
Thanks again for the hard work!

bob:
The download counter was disabled for security issues in the way it was implemented.
It will probably get fixed in the future but no promises as to when!

MajorCyco:
This looks great, but can't install.  Does it work on Mac?

HPBEME:
Have you changed "case sensitivity" from the default Mac setting"?  If so navigate to wherever Mac installs JRiver skins and make the change indicated by Bob in reply #9. Read posts 8 thru 13 if you have not already. I am guessing a bit here, since I don't have a Mac.  Just inferring from what Bob wrote in his post. When I release the next skin update, "Main.xml" is changed to "main.xml" so hopefully that will resolve this going forward. 

BTW... did you download from the forum link or the Accessories Page?
