Vitreous v2.0 - 7/13/2011

[Eyal]

However, when I click on the playlist button in the microplayer, the playlist window is empty.

It's a bug. See: viewtopic.php?f=1&t=49097

Thanks Eyal for the reply. That's an old bug for MM3. I'm surprise this is not fixed in the new version of MM4. Does the author know about this bug and have any plan on fixing it in the near future?

Hi Nohitter!

Just looking at your lovely default Viterous skin, I noticed that the MicroPlayer for vertical task bars hasn't been updated to v2.0. It's not a problem for me as such as I rarely use the taskbar sideways but since it's the default skin for MM4 you could consider updating maybe.

Another thing, in floatplayer the seekbar doesn't go to the end of your enclosed seekbar box, you need to increase the size by another 13 pixels if im not mistaken.

One last thing, ive just about finished making a Windows 7 gadget based on your skin for a user cncb:

I think it looks decent enough...is it okay if I post it up?

Hey,

thnx for the last update.

I have some new ideas: Could you change the colors of the yellow stars into the other blue color? That would fit better. In addition, the colors in the options have not been adjusted. I already wrote, what can be fixed.

Yeah, no problem. Just please leave a reference somewhere to this forum post if you put it up. Thanks.

I made some changes to the fonts in the options but it didn't work. Hopefully the black text for the collections section in the options is not hard-coded. Does anyone know any other skins where the text color is okay in that part of the options? I'm not sure where I need to go to change it, since what I tried didn't work.

If anyone would like a Miniplayer to look like a Windows 7 Gadget using the Vitreous skin, here's a screenshot and link to the post:

Is there any possibility to get the seek bar working correctly with MediaMonkey 3? I really like this skin, but I am not quite ready to upgrade from MM3 to 4 yet. If anyone can provide any ideas on how to make the current song title visible on the seek bar under MM3, it would be really appreciated!

since there isn't really a skin for MR for the dark version i began to work on one.
i worked with the vision tab skin (thanks to dreadm) and reworked a few things. i wanted to create a more simple but also elegant look.
now it is borderless and edited the header a bit. also the iconset is changed.
what do you guys think?

Looks good, I like it.

Dark theme for MM 4.0 is now available:

Your comments, concerns, and suggestions are welcomed and appreciated!

Excellent, thanks for the Dark version I really like it .

Here are some suggestions:
- The Seek and Volume bar is difficult to see because the brightness of the foreground and background color is so close. More contrast or a different color (for example a more saturated blue or red color) would make it clearer to see the progress of the bar. For example, something like:

This hue of blue appears to be completely out of place with the theme. Maybe if it was more translucent.

Vitreous dark is awesome, but I've got two tiny nitpicks with it -- is there a way to better highlite the "currently playing" track in the now playing list, maybe in a light blue like the rest of it instead of kist a slight bold? (it blends in with the rest of the list too much for me to see well) and, second, the text in the pop up info box when the song changes, is very hard to read, kind of 'eroded' like you're seeing it thorough a mesh-- maybe bold it a little?

Sorry, the currently playing track is only bolded, the color/etc. can't be changed, it's hardcoded in MM.

Popup looks fine on my PC. I suppose the problem is that you don't have the font "Segoe UI" on your PC, it must fall back to some other font when that isn't present on the PC.

Had it, but reinstalling the font fixed it somehow, thanks!

Hi I have a problem with VitreousDark, under the Now Playing cover art tab. The media info can not be seen because the text is black and the VistreousDark is black.



Anyone know how to fix this?
