The Custom Clock Helper is fine as an advanced settings pane, but what it is now lacking (imho) is a basic (user friendly) way to configure the screensaver. This was provided by the v1.2.1 local settings pane in the radio. Isn't it much easier to select sth. like "short day date" (e.g. Sun, Feb. 14) etc. than to figure out that "%a, %d %b" represents the same thing (especially as there seems to be no documentation as to which parameter represents what)? > > I suppose I could add the possibility to do some configuration on the > Radio and just let them be overwritten if you change something in Custom > Clock Helper ? > Would it be very difficult to offer these three options (big time only, short day date and/or now playing for the top and bottom items) for example and inform the user on the SBS that any changes done in the Custom Clock Helper supersedes them. -- copperstate ------------------------------------------------------------------------ copperstate's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=34756 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=68269 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
