Title: WMP10 Update (Mega Skin)
Post by: CDvd on September 18, 2004, 05:40:02 am

I fixed some problems that were in the previous version and changed the title bar to match the MC version I use (11).

Skin: http://mario.bross.free.fr/MCStuffs/wmp10.zip (http://mario.bross.free.fr/MCStuffs/wmp10.zip)

Fixed: old image for mute button
Fixed: no image for continuous play button
Changed : Title bar now shows "Media Center 11"
New: Support for Library Browser introduced in MC 11.0.85

I would like to change the chekboxes images too, but can't figure how to do it. If you know what is wrong with :

Code: [Select]

   <Entry Name="CheckBox" Bitmap="Frame_CheckBox.gif" NumberImages="8" />
Just drop a comment here.

Thanks
David.

David,

Thanks so much for the updated skin.  It looks like you've fixed the radio buttons and checkboxes so I didn't answer the question from the last thread.  
Adding support for the Library Browser is an added plus, as I wasn't even going to try 11.0.85 if I had to go back to using the default skin.

What about those of us that are still using Media Center 10?

To fix the check boxes, this is how I fixed it on my machine:

1. Convert the Frame_CheckBox.gif to a .bmp file (Frame_CheckBox.bmp)
2. Change line 101 in the main.xml file from Frame_CheckBox.gif to Frame_Checkbox.bmp.

Code: [Select]

<Entry Name="CheckBox" Bitmap="Frame_CheckBox.bmp" NumberImages="8" />For some reason, MC doesn't recognize the .gif image.

Here's the end result!

Thanks MDG_King!
For some reason, I was not aware of that! :)

You're right, there's no reason not making a MC10 version... I'll try your suggestion and will post links for both 11 & 10.
