Originally planned to implement a band visualization(white) underneath the configuration of the equalizer(blue), but sadly no developer had time to implement such slider values
So it has to work without

Please leave some comments regarding improvements for or received impressions of the skin

Cool one. I would say the top text is a bit small, but well, go on like this !

I like it.
Can you make the (future) video window be able to snap to main skin and to drag it BSplayer style(click on interior and move)?

[3breadt]

@gebeleizis:
The snapping should be no problem. Do you mean with Bsplayer style that you click on the video itself and can drag the video? That is afaik not possible in VLC, its just possible to click onto any area of the window, were not button is positioned of course, and then drag and move the window.

@j-b:
Do you mean the vlc text specficly or also the menu text?

btw: There are actions for every file opening dialog excepts DirectShow. Will it be added?

sry for the doublepost but i found sth that I think is quite necessary to add, namely fgcolor1 and fgcolor2 attributes for the playtree. I have the problem that I want to use white and blue bgcolors and also white and blue textcolors but that is not possible to define yet. Would be nice if sbd adds this.

Edit:
Something strange: When I used the xkeepratio=true attribute on an image(Playlist Titlebar Text) the image always was resized to 1px more than it ought to be horizontally. I found a workaround already, but this should be noticed so that it can be fixed.

Edit 2:
I now found a color combination thats even better than blue/white for the playlist items.
So you don't have to rush adding this feature

I’ve been waiting for this skin for awhile. I like it a lot. Thanks!

Could you tell me how to reproduce the problem please?

Great skin btw. I was very impressed by the menu...

[Jean-Baptiste Kempf]

Added.

Well I positioned the text "PLAYLIST" as an image in the horizontal center of the top bar of the playlist window and set xkeepratio=true.
When I resized the Window the PLAYLIST-image did reposition itself correctly but was resized by +1px horizontally. I worked arround that issue by making the first "pixel column" of the PLAYLIST-image transparent so that one doesn´t see that the image is resized and thus tiled due to the mosaic resize behaviour.
I hope you understand what I mean

Yes, i see what you mean. I haven't tried to reproduce it yet, but from your description, there is probably nothing that can be done.

Consider a window (width: 40px) containing a button (width: 10px) centered horizontally. If the control has xkeepratio="true", the control will always be centered horizontally when resizing the window. But what should happen if the window is resized to en odd number of pixels? There will always be one "extra" pixel either on the left or on the right (depending on rounding issues) of the control.
I think this problem can only be solved by the skin designer (like you did, or with a larger background, for example).
