skins2 error: Bitmap too large !

[cellplex]

Hi, I've made a simple skin - using the example VLC OSX skin by Bigben as a guide. Everything seems to work function wise, however I get this error every few seconds in the messages window :-

skins2 error: Bitmap too large !


Here is my theme.xml

VLC version? OS? Did you try with a nightly build?
Did you use the same graphics as the OSX skin (so i can try reproducing the bug)?

This message indicates a bug, probably in the skins module itself, and maybe in your skin as well (or both ). It would be very useful if you could manage to find out which control(s) cause the problem. For example, when do you get the message exactly? I suppose it is when moving the mouse over a particular control, or type of control. You can also comment them in the XML file to confirm that they are responsible for the messages.

Hi, this is with the 0.8.5 tags build. I get the error whenever I mouse over any of the buttons but not if I just hover the mouse pointer on an inactive part of the skin nor when I right click to bring up a menu. I've tried using both the original buttons and mine, same error. Can pm you a download link of the vlt if you would like ?

Yes please, it would be very useful to debug.
