Summary

This specification describes the Ubuntu Media Center UI, User Interface. It will provide some example, idea to have an efficient, easy, unique... interface. It deals with icons, menus...

Icons

One idea is to have a reminder on each icon. If your choice is to play music on a cd, you choose Music and then Cd, you will have this :

  • This icon for Music :

attachment:note.png

  • and then for Cd (in a sub menu):

attachment:cd.png

This idea can be use for everything, like movie. You have an icon of pellicule for movie. Then, in a sub menu, you have for example Dvd. This Dvd has in top right the pellicule icon. With this, you know where you are in the media center.

Elisa use one menu at bottom with the main items (Music, Movie...) :

  • attachment:menu1.png

When you select one item on this, like movie, an other menu, a sub menu, is open, at the bottom.

  • attachment:menu2.png

You have two menu. With the reminder, we don't need to keep the first menu. We will have only one menu at bottom.
