      @ismanu Hello

      5/4 format (1280*1024) is not supported by this theme. This theme supports 16/9 et 4/3 formats only (with different resolutions)

          hi,
          so... no second hand's 720p monitor near my place... so i ve two choices...

          • buy an expensive new one 😞 gloops my bartop will be very expensive at the end, bad WAF lol
          • fix the theme, i m software developer so ...

          ...so i decide to fixed the theme for VGA screen of 1280x1024 size.

          i've create a new gamelistview called :
          4A-1280x1024 with next pixel mix

          alt text

          and i ve fix the video size, improve a lot of changes :

          • reduce and move the photo mix
          • reduce the fontsize of description and increase the textarea
          • move the item description of the game

          alt text

          alt text

          i ll improve the render, that was just a raw test

            @ismanu Nice try!
            The mix looks a bit small and the list selection background is cutoff (should go under the the left part)

            To go further i would like to make it compatible to 5/4 as i think this is the most used ratio after 16/9 and 4/3. Problem is adding a ratio is a huge work behind the scene, not to make it works but each time a new game theme is added this is a pain. So i have no plan for now adding it.

            Which ratio have you download for your first try?
            If you tried with 16/9, you should give it a try with 4/3, without making any change it may be ok, worth a try.

            ++

              hmm i ve just read quickly the theming doc, i m not an expert lol

              "The mix looks a bit small and the list selection background is cutoff (should go under the the left part)"
              i never see the real layout... but i just saw your original screenshoot in the first post, i ve a base for play with, i ll made a best portage.

              "Which ratio have you download for your first try?"
              not sure of your question lol, i ll try to answer that : your 720p theme (?)
              or that: <resolution>1280 1024</resolution>
              or that: i ve use the "1b-standard with other mixes" as base and duplicate (by security) [common/common_description/common_info]_1280_1024.xml for isolate my tests

              "Problem is adding a ratio is a huge work behind the scene, not to make it works but each time a new game theme is added this is a pain. So i have no plan for now adding it."
              yeah, i saw all the directories, not sure to understand actually the complete structure and heritage but yeah a huge work!
              A layout editor with drag n drop can be a solution... but, you know that, time is time ...
              i ll polish the 5/4 and submit you the changes if you want

                You seems to have download the 720p (16/9) version for your 5/4 ratio, before going any further you should give a try to the CRT version (4/3) which is a closer match to 5/4, this will certainly not be perfect bu maybe good enough without having much to adjust.

                Also note using 16/9 you end up with image characters being cutt off like sonic from your screnshot, this will be less a pb with 4/3 version

                    I have installed the new version and the background screenshots of the theme cannot be seen, it is all black. What could be the problem?

                    I use 16/9 1080p

                      @kocinsky Hello, for the moment we advise to use the 720p version. There are some issues with the 1080p one. The problem will be corrected in the next UI. Play Again 😉

                                Pour une TV CRT en 240p il faut prendre la version "4/3 240p (GPICase et autres petits formats 4/3)" ?

                                            Salut à tous,

                                            Tellement heureux que cette v2 soit enfin sortie! Un IMMENSE merci pour ton travail!! Bravo

                                            Et maintenant voici venu le moment du SAV...
                                            J'ai fait la mise à jour de la 7.2.2 vers la 8.0 sans aucun problème, tout fonctionne parfaitement... sauf le thème qui ne sort ni les images ni les musiques. L'OS se lance en version dégeulasse genre "mode sans échec" sans image ni son, il n'y a que le texte en noir et blanc.

                                            J'ai du rater quelquechose...
                                            Est-ce que quelqu'un rencontre le même problème?

                                            Pour info, je suis sur PC (Nuc) et j'essaye d'installer la v2 (la vraie, pas la béta sortie ces derniers jours) en version 720p.

                                            Merci pour vos retours
