Great, all seems to be working as I expected. There is no v0.17 yet. The reason you was seeing "0.17.00" for "Latest Available Version" in the about section is because you have the unreleased beta version v0.16.05 installed so PARAM.SFO version is the right one, because you are on the beta it was already showing you an updated bubble in preparation for the upcoming 0.17 release that No one else could see (Ive changed this now to save any confusion so it will show "Latest Version Available" = 0.16.05 if you are on the beta). There is a later version 0.17.00 here but its not ready for release.

The latest public version is v0.16.03. The latest beta is v0.16.05 for now..

Working on getting the homebrew divided up into separate categories next.

Ive made loads of progress, Ive completely changed the whole thing. Im not using xil xmls at all anymore so Ive sorted the Spotify problem, and there will be no problems with Multiman singstar or any priority packages. Also adding support for 4.70. It syncs in seconds now too.

Developer credits and version numbers are displayed better now too. Its really looking like a store now: :)

I was going to ask if you could use "what's new " from tv category

There was another "priority" bug I reported last night but seems he has re-written it to squash that bug. Love the new look.

Already reported this bug and being worked on as we speak
 
PM's sent with new package , Only compatible with Rebug 4.78 only for now. (Bonus is the pkg is only 5MB)

Ive scrapped the idea of having categories altogether as im not sure if its possible with this new layout, and theres really no point unless there is more than 100 packages and I don't plan on going over that, too much work to maintain updates. Others can always add to the list very easily if they want to but I doubt they will.

Report on 0.16.15
All works for me exept some PSN homebrews for regions reasons (I'm not US) :(
It needs biggers icons to be like original store have a try with 486 x 405 PNG
I don't like for my part the "auto start" for homebrews. is it possible to deactive (just download and install) ?
Just a wrong word for Retrorch New 1.3 => "Retroarch"
For ManaGunZ 1.23 it's "Zar" with an uppercase
I have double icons for youtube in TV column
All rest is fantastic

Well if you want a quick peek here is what it looks like :

I like it for lots of reasons but there a couple of drawbacks Ive noticed so far, Im sure there are more.

Advantages:
- The GUI is nicer looking and its possible to scroll through more items faster as there are 3 rows.
- It syncs so quick compared to old version.
- It shows a tick next to apps that are already installed.
- You can now press triangle on the XMBPD icon and select clear cache.
- I also like the fact that I can just use the ICON0 from the packages for the pictures.
- Developer credits and version numbers displayed a lot better.
- Less FW files are changed with this install so less chance of conflict with other XMB mods.
- It solves the Spotify and Singstar replacement package problems as it doesn't use xil2 xmls.

Disadvantages
- You will lose the "My Channels" item from TV category.(the apps can still be made available for download inside XMBPD)
- There is only one category for downloads.
- The app you download will boot after installing in this version, could be handy, could also be annoying if you just wanted to install it. Im sure this changeable, just not sure how easy it is.

Thanks.

You must mean the official packages are not working for you? Yeah, that's no problem to change, if you tell me which ones you don't want to see I can make it so they don't show up in "fr" region. I included lots of TV packages so people could see what works for them.

I wont be changing icons. I will just be using the ICON0. Sorry, too much to do already :)

Autostart is part of the sony code for this layout. Don't think I know how to change it, im sure its possible but not be me.

If you mean you have double icons for youtube in your TV category on XMB then you must have 2 versions installed, eu and us, I will tidy up the download list so "fr" don't see any "us" packages. you will just need to delete the US version from XMB.

Ok, think I know what the issue is, there was a duplicated "key" in the TV xml for youtube. Can you try this tv xml. https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/s/ygkcr2l6r6xdrr1/category_tv.zip

(for anyone who already downloaded the 0.16.15 pkg, can you download it again for the fixed xml, this was an issue that would only show up with EU youtube, thanks for spotting it [MENTION=16840]0_obeWAN[/MENTION])

And if you want to sort out these icons then that's great ,THANKS! Ive added that one already and it works fine and it does look better. https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/s/56avkpfk9ej9qvw/XMBPD_icons.zip
