I'm still working on what it looks like when you go into the weather screen, but I put the Current weather with a 5-day forecast on the Home menu.
do you have any plan to improve music part ?

RE: The Green Button (Alpha) - loveart - 2024-01-16
a few day ago, i ask myself that can we install real windows media center in windows 11?
and after litle time search internet i found out this can !
i installed windows media center from here:
wmc installer for windows 10/11
after that, i got 2 problems : codec for windows media center and how to import, fetch metamedia for movies to windows media center
the first seems easily, i installed shark007 codec packs and disable all built-in decoder of windows media player
the 2nd is a hard work cause i found out windows media center require each movie have to put to an each folder, and used dvdid.xml as the metadata. i solved this problem by install windows media master, and my movies library with about 1000 movies take me a few day to completed this work !
the windows media center seems oldage, but it works fine.
here the some screenshot of pure windows media center:
RE: The Green Button (Alpha) - Doctor Eggs - 2024-01-20
I got some of the music screens complete but still need to wrap a couple more things up before I release it.
Also changed around the home menu to include the "Now Playing", but only did this for Music. I will probably add it for any media playing.

keep up your incredble work !

Version 19.0.8
- Adds a "Now Playing" menu item on the home screen when video/music is being played.
- Home screen weather display updates
- Multiple updates to the music section (still a work in progress)
https://github.com/Doctor-Eggs/skin.theGreenButton/raw/main/skin.theGreenButton.zip
I've been working on a couple of other projects that have gotten in the way of spending more time on this so I figured I would commit what I have for right now and continue to work on it as time becomes available.
Let me know what you think.
