This is a preview release of CoCo. This theme is not complete, so please do not post telling me that “this” doesn’t look right or “that” doesn’t match the rest of the theme. IT’S NOT COMPLETE THIS IS JUST A PREVIEW. The only views that have been designed for now are (in order of pics) Home Menu , Video: Gallery, Preview, Large, Video (grid), and Listview also Music: Listview. Nothing else has yet been modified.
With that said, moviesheets, thumbs, metadata is set as is. So if you decide that you want use this theme you can generate your moviesheets, thumbs and xml data without having to worry about them change with later releases of the theme.
If you have used either my Mojo or Darklight themes, then the set up is the same and you should not have to regenerate your thumbs (coverboxes) because they are the same for CoCo, the only thing you need to generate is the new moviesheet. If you have NOT used those themes or any themes, please don’t ask questions here right now, look at the Mojo or Darklight threads were you are sure to find the answer to nearly any question you might have.
Yes. The HUB and the SMP run mostly the same firmware (with a few minor exceptions).
As long you are running the FW that is released at the same time for the HUB or SMP, the themes will work on both if they are designed to work for the FW released at that time. If that makes since.
Very nice Work so far on this one, looks very SMOOTH like a big Mocha. I want my CoCo !!! hope it’s ready soon. If you need someone to test it just let me know 18 TB of NAS
This theme has to be your best that you are sharing with all of us. One question for you, on the large video page with the white images, would it be difficult to change from the movie title in them to Running Time in one and MPAA rating in the other? Would finish off that page nicely with a little movie info.
But, no. The problem is that you either have to diplay the run time and MPAA for all of the displaying thumbs or none, you can’t make it display just for the selected thumb.
Love the look of this theme, experiencing one issue in the moviesheet mode however. In the sample image you provided it shows a movie screen preview on the left hand side. After following your instructions on generating movie sheets, everything works properly except I have no image in the preview box on the left. I do get the movie box art and the backdrop to appear. What might I be doing wrong?
I also am not getting the “HD” displayed above movie previews, like what you have in the sample image. I checked to make sure the movie was indeed HD.
Here is the mediainfo, Im not sure what could be wrong with the thumbgen setup, I re-checked against the PDF you created for use with Mojo and Darklight.

Make sure that you are looking at this version of my guide: http://www.mediafire.com/view/?82991053b0fr50b and not an older version, then re-check again to make sure that you have the exact setting that I have on pages 5 & 6. And then make sure you are generating a sheet like this
I love the CoCo theme, thank you for your hard work. I know I must be missing something obvious, but on the large video screen directly underneath the listing of actors all my movies show up as 5 grey stars a grey heart and one other grey icon. Is that how it is supposed to look?
