Great youtube video, can’t wait for the download link.
I have a question. At about 2 minutes and 21 seconds in your video you get the view with 12 covers (2 rows of 6 covers). At the moment (beta 2) you have a red marker around the covers so that you can see what you select. I see you changed something with this view, the red marker is gone.
The video is quit fast, I can’t see what you did now. Is it besides looking at the title possible to see what cover you have selected in this view? I use this view all the time and I would really miss it if you took this out of your theme.
And I love the weather icons in the main menu, looking great!
Looks great as usual Joey…very much looking forward to seeing how you were able to get the main menu icons to increase when selected. Did you use a new main focused icon larger than the non-focused or were you able to scale the non-focused icon? Either way looks really great.
Joey I’m still using this theme - which is praise indeed! I have usually gone back to using the default after a few days of trying the other themes.
One issue I’ve found is when I go to Setup > Network > Check Connection. When I check the connection the three items IP address etc. change from the red X to the black background - it doesn’t show a green check mark, even though the screen says that the Network connection check passed. Anybody else have this problem?
I’d also like to ask if it would be possible to add a progress bar and track count (Track 1 of 13) to the audio player if it would be possible in the next version.

Same thing happens in the AEonisch Hub theme also made by JoeySmyth.
To have the “about background” i included line two in your xml.
Also added the first line which points to decoration.xml. In decoration.xml there is this line:
I added decoration.xml to the beta theme and removed this line so the default weather icon is no longer appearing behind the screens when in setup.
Then a last thingie.
On RV-BG.jpg theres the text MOVIE/VIDEO. This background is used in more screens then just the Movie Gallery. Renaming this file for the gallery to RV_BG_MOVIES.jpg and a copy of New_Firmware_004.png saved as RV-BG.jpg looks better…
Will fix it all up properly later. (it’s a “Quickfix” because it’s 8am morning and i have to go to work.)
Thanks Joey and Medic for the fast response. I don’t use the Check Network Connection function very often, so it’s not a biggie for me. Just thought I’d report it so that you can fix it when you’re updating other things.
Thanks Medic, I will change these small things in my version, I am sure they will be in the next beta or final, but it’s a nice job to do yourself when you have some free time.
I love this theme, its the best theme for the hub in my opinion. I was wondering if there is any way to get an HD icon added to the large gallery browse page. THat way I can tell my HD from my non HD. Possible? Point me in the right direction? Anyone
