[00:39] <tgm4883> bobweaver, looking good
[00:40] <tgm4883> bobweaver, suggesting for the videos screen
[00:40] <tgm4883> have you thought of doing a video wall type effect?
[00:44] <bobweaver> tgm4883,  what is that ?
[00:44] <bobweaver> I am more trying to get the backend (SDK ) code together
[00:44] <tgm4883> bobweaver, I'm trying to find a screenshot of it
[00:45] <tgm4883> bobweaver, think of your gridview, but without titles and with zero space between video covers
[00:45] <tgm4883> then have the selected video "pop out" and increase in size about 10%
[00:45] <bobweaver> Oh users / devs can set all that info
[00:45] <bobweaver>  /xml files
[00:46] <bobweaver> what I am up to right now is making things like MythSlider MythPlayer all that stuff
[00:46] <tgm4883> ah ok
[00:46] <bobweaver> the backend stuff once that is sone I will make a basic wizard in qtcreator and it should not take a dev more then a couple of hours to make a theme
[00:47] <bobweaver> Just like how Ubuntu has a SDK and android and blackberry and what not now myth will have one
[00:47] <bobweaver> this way I do not have to keep up with  xml files that change alot
[00:48] <bobweaver> But if you would like to get a mythbuntu theme  going then by all means make some zcf files or whatever gimp files are
[00:49] <bobweaver> there is also a tool in gimp that you  an use called qml-exporter this will take images (layers) and make into qml !
[00:51] <bobweaver> er i was just about to go to the store to get ciggs and what not and the second I walk out the door It starts to pour cats and dogs style
[00:51] <tgm4883> heh
[00:52] <tgm4883> it's raining pretty hard here too
[00:52] <tgm4883> bobweaver, is there a guide on that somewhere?
[00:52] <tgm4883> the theming stuff
[01:00] <bobweaver> not yet as I am just writing all of it but the main thing is use qml
[01:00] <bobweaver> as far as using qml-exporter
[01:01] <bobweaver> it is super easy every layer (image or text that you make ) you just use that
[01:01] <bobweaver> the only thing that is super imporant is making sure that you do not flatten things
[01:01] <bobweaver> I think that I made packages for it somewhere
[01:02] <bobweaver> it is wrote in python so I am sure that you could even make it better
[01:02] <bobweaver> http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~josephjamesmills/+junk/gimp-qmlexporter/files
[01:07] <bobweaver> tgm4883,  here is a ok tutorial of it http://blog.qt.digia.com/blog/2010/10/19/exporting-qml-from-photoshop-and-gimp/
[01:13] <bobweaver> er like right now I am dealing with some issues with the player and how much is buffered and how postion of the movie/show stuff like that in a file called MythProgession       then theme maker can just call MythProgrssion{ id:thisis; bufferColor:"blue"; progressColor: "#FFFFFF"; sliderbackgroundColor: "#88000000"}
[01:18] <bobweaver> yeah tgm4883  if you make any gimp stuff I will use your theme not only for the default theme but also I will strip it down and make it into the default wizard theme
[01:18] <bobweaver> wizard theme is like when you open qtcreator go to file -> new-> mythtvTheme
[01:19] <bobweaver> this is going to be so awesome in six months
