Hey Swindus, great work on the FE. Once I have everything working the way I like it, I'll be knocking up some skins.
Anyway, a few niggles, and a few possible suggestions?
Niggles first...
1. Video still seems to be slower than it should be (I'm running 1.045) when using EmuMovies SQ videos in the skin.
2. Video runs EXTREMELY choppy full screen when used for the screensaver or intro video (around 50% the speed of the audio).
3. Cursor becomes visible during screensaver.
Okay, my video hardware/settings...
Codec: XviD v1.1.3 Final
VGA: OnBoard Via UniChrome KM400 AGP (latest drivers - 19/05/2005) using 64MB shared memory.
Okay, I've got a few suggestions as well (hope you don't mind dude!)...
1. I know this has been mentioned by FrizzleFried; an alternate image for the video previews. That way, if the video doesn't exist, I can it default back to an image or video that I can use to inform the user the video is missing. At the moment, I have an image set behind the video saying 'Sorry, this video cannot be found', but it is actually when changing videos.
2. More definables! They are so cool!
I wanted to have a vertically scrolling row of screenshots alongside the game list (like another gamelist set to display images), so I used definables. Unfortunately, I ran out of definables, and now I can't have a dynamic controller display! Arrrgh! Maybe there could be a duplicate gamelist on-screen? That way you could set one gamelist to text, and the duplicate to images?
3. Jukebox waitlist. Personally, I would prefer to be able to view the waitlist without going into the menu, and being able to bind keys to other functions in the menu would be handy, like STOP MUSIC and FAST FORWARD.
4. Browsing the jukebox in EXPLORER mode. Would there be a way to have the folder art contained WITHIN the folders used as the snap for the folder? I know once you get into the folders, the album art shows, but it would be cool to have the album images at the top level as well. Again, it would also be pretty cool to have both the name and the art displayed in the game/tracklist.
No idea if any of these suggestions make sense, or whether is would be something others would want, jusy kinda' throwing it out there...
