This is a 'Moviesheet' based Theme and has been developed for the WDTV Live Hub and NOT the WD TV Live Streaming Media Player (SMP).
The Theme has been designed to run using Firmware version 2.07.17 and will not be updated to run on any current Firmware until PNG/JPG issue is resolved by WD developers. Sorry.
My inspiration for this theme undoubtably comes from Joey Smyth's outstanding Theme work and various XBMC skins, with a little eclectic design input from yours truly.
I would like to thank the early pioneers of theming such as PsychoTHC, Juliojs, ExtremeDigital, Firetix to name but a few and also my contemporaries- Joey Smyth and Tinwarble for their patience and invaluable help along the way! Thank you very much.
ETA- Spring(ish) 2012.
Please also NOTE- This is WIP and more info and screenshots will follow in due course.
UPDATE- 26-02-2012
Obsolete images removed.
Apologies for not being able to upload new screenshot images as intended. Will do asap.
UPDATE- 22-02-2012
After much deliberation I have decided to redesign Front Row so that they will work with Joey Smyths' Aeonish hub moviesheet templates.
The down side of this means that we won't be able to have the 'media flag' info displayed...(my original moviesheet design was causing to many problems with pan view within xml code)...
... However the UP side of this means that everyone currently using the excellent Aeonish Hub theme and moviesheets will also be able to use them in Front Row....making both themes compatiable and interchangeable.
So in summary and I do think that this will be better for all end users and perhaps future themers may adopt such an approach!
I want to say a MASSIVE thanks to Joey Smyth for his personal permission and endorsement for me to use his moviesheet template for my development of Front Row. Thanks JS!

NOTE- All Joey's movie, TV, music and folder TG templates will work with Front Row, however I am currently modding TV template to improve for FR [Front Row].
Oh and a BIG THANK YOU for everyones comments and feedback!
--------------------------------------------------

Revised Gallery View.... NB....View still needs tweaking slightly
Preview Layout-
I realise that manually editing the movie info xml may not be everyone's 'cup of tea' but for me personally I feel it is well worth the effort as it gives an extra dimension to the somewhat limited OSD.
For people who don't fancy editing the xml I will be providing an alternative Theme as part of the 'Release Package'. Basically the info at the bottom will be omitted with some minor mod to display media flag info etc.
Large Video Browse View (No Thrills)
it's look nice ................... thank you bro

Hi KurtG1
Unfortunately I haven't made any progress lately....too busy with minimal spare time to dive back into the theme.
Apologies to the people who have been waiting for my 'Springish' release.
I've also been rather dispondent with the theming aspect of the HUB due to WD's, let's say, lack lustre response to the PNG issue which hasn't helped to wet my appetite. So much so that I am considering an alternative form of 'media player' to run xbmc skins...however my final choice of media player is still in the balance as I'm waitng for further developments by others? Anyway I digress...![]()
Despite the above I may get some spare time this weekend to tidy up a very rough unfinished beta version which will ONLY include 'Large Video Browse' and 'Preview View' to ease ones patience, but can't promise anything.
Cheers!
EDIT-
PS. Will be making a further post on this thread-
...once the 'fire' returns to my belly!! ![]()
