Still having trouble with Chocolate Theme

[hansolo77 11]

I was going through and adjusting the theme to look the way I wanted.  Adjusting the layout styles, etc.  I got everything almost the way I liked it, then a new version of MBClassic came out and it broke my ability to continue tweaking it.  Whenever I go into my TV shows section, I'm presented with all my shows.  This part looks ok.  Then I select a show, and I'm supposed to be presented with a view of each season side by side (poster view I guess).  However, my layout has them all listed vertically using a season banner, with each episode title listed below them.  This is not what I wanted.  So I hit the key on my remote that is SUPPOSED to bring up the layout config menu.  Instead, it takes me to the MBClassic config menu where I configure all the bits and pieces of the client, not the layout.  To the best of my knowledge, this only happens on the TV->Season select screen.  I reported it before in a different support thread, but it must have been ignored or overlooked, so I'm making a new topic to better locate the problem.

Go into the settings, the cog in the top right corner and untick custom detail view

Actually, it is custom TV view.

Sorry I had a little internet hiccup and haven't been able to check on a resolution to this.  Thanks for responding, i'll look into it right away!

Update:  I dont see anything in my settings that looks like custom tv view or custome detail view.. where exactly do I go?

[BATTLE DONKEY 98]

On the EHS home screen go up to the top right corner, click the gear cog, then go over to Chocolate Views, on the right side there is a setting labeled "Use custom view for series". Untick it to go back to the old way of showing seasons, then episodes

No problem

Dang now I'm having a different issue but along the same lines... I was able to bring up the onscreen controls to change the layout, and then I put it the way I wanted it.  Then I went into the season to configure the way I want to see the episodes.  I brought up the onscreen controls again, and tried to make and adjustment to the SIZE.  Soon as I clicked it, the focus went to back to the episode list, while keeping the onscreen controls up.  The only thing I could do was close WMC and restart it.  Now when I go into the episode screen, the whole system locks up, I can't browse/move around, OR bring up the onscreen menu anymore.  If I change themes back to (I know it's old, but it still works for me) NEO, everything works.  If I change back to Chocolate, the whole thing locks up again when going to the episode level.  What should I do?

Have you tried manipulating it with a mouse?

 

Or, go into neo and reduce the cover size at that level there.  Then go back to chocolate.

[hansolo77 11]

Yeah I tried to use a mouse, but there is nothing happening.  The screen is just completely locked.  I also noticed that my CPU usage jumps up to 50% on the extensibility host app when the episode level is up.  I tried adjusting the size in NEO but for some reason they don't cross over.  I have NEO set differently than Chocolate as far as the layout/coverflow etc and what I do there doesn't change things on Chocolate's side.  Is there an xml/css/cfg or something I can maybe edit in notepad to get it back to default?

[ebr 14897]

Try the classic theme to make the adjustment....

[hansolo77 11]

Ok I'll try that.  I appreciate your time in helping me.  I'd like to use Chocolate if I can just get it to work right!
