I also liked it thiner; now it looks too bulky for the icon size. As an orientation, it is around as thick as Plex progress-bar but Plex's Thumbnail/icon is much bigger. The progress bars in Estuary skin on Kodi 17 are even thinner.timstephens24 wrote: 06 Sep 2017, 18:53 I liked the weight a lot better at 6, but this might be better to start it off then tone it back down.

You skipped over Plex but when Kodi was mentioned you didn't like it very muchamet wrote: 06 Sep 2017, 20:41I hate that every conversation here starts or ends with ".. thats how it is in Kodi..."Everbrave wrote: 06 Sep 2017, 20:38I also liked it thiner; now it looks too bulky for the icon size.

we have opted to use one skin for all platforms, so think of those bars on iOS and handheld devices
heh, no sensitivity at all... we were both part of XBMC/Kodi. I have no particular issues with Plex either, Plex guys were also part of XBMC in early days.Everbrave wrote: 06 Sep 2017, 21:01You skipped over Plex but when Kodi was mentioned you didn't like it very muchamet wrote: 06 Sep 2017, 20:41I hate that every conversation here starts or ends with ".. thats how it is in Kodi..."Everbrave wrote: 06 Sep 2017, 20:38

Well, I am sure you know that you will need another UI, designed from ground up and not another skin, for MrMC to get rid of this Kodi "taste".
You are, however, correct; the Estuary skin scales horribly on iOS devices.
But by all means, the thickness of bars depend on the size of the Thumbnails; in my eyes, the bars are too thick but probably you will get a different opinion from every two or three users. Functionality does not suffer either way.
One of the things I like about you guys is that you "respond" and fast; that is actually a big deal; Thanks for the continued effort.amet wrote: 06 Sep 2017, 21:08heh, no sensitivity at all... we were both part of XBMC/Kodi.

I think we will leave it as is for now and see what the larger audience says, if anyone bothers to respond
thanks for the feedback

Yep, I had picked that up. And thanks heaps for working on this! I realise that dropping in code from Kodi isn't trivial.davilla wrote: 06 Sep 2017, 12:36 MythTV plugin is getting bumped to next testflight (3.2). We really want to get 3.1 out.
It seems like they actually care about their app or something. Crazy..Everbrave wrote: 06 Sep 2017, 21:12 One of the things I like about you guys is that you "respond" and fast; that is actually a big deal; Thanks for the continued effort.
I'm good with this. If some complain, I don't mind it a bit thinner.davilla wrote: 06 Sep 2017, 18:11 20170906-f79f901
