</div>Thanks to StuartM, most of the excessive refresh issues have been<br>
resolved. It's much faster now (and more usable)<br>
<br>
I use mythaeon now as my main theme... Few comments:<br>
- Recording screen: While very pretty, it makes searching for a recent<br>
recording quite difficult. Having to scroll right to get to an earlier<br>
recording, where the only feedback is the screenshot (which often<br>
doesn't correspond to the recording content) and you get to know what<br>
it is only once highlighted.<br>
Would it be possible to have an alternative view in list, so at a<br>
glance you can see 10-12 recording titles at once and immediately see<br>
which one to select? That would make the wife happy, she finds the<br>
theme annoying as it is.<br>
<br>
-Video screen: The fullscreen background artwork is almost completely<br>
covered... Would need some transparency there otherwise I think it's a<br>
bit of a waste. My video libraries is organised by folders (one for<br>
each type: action, Sci-Fi, TV etc...)<br>
When selecting a folder, you can barely see the artwork; (looks like<br>
this: <a href="http://i43.tinypic.com/30xakqp.png" target="_blank">http://i43.tinypic.com/30xakqp.png</a>)<br>
<br>
-Menu: The text for the menu is severely shorten here... you see 5<br>
characters at a max, after that it scrolls...<br>
<br>
That's all for now<br>
