Kiddac I've never rarely commented on skin or anything over past months you have been creating but me myself would like to send beer tokens so were do I send it too

The links in his Dropbox account

 

[kiddac]

no channels on epg... that is not a skin problem. You just need to do a manual scan on crossepg or xmltvimporter, whichever you have installed

 

[gbull79]

I've looked in Dropbox there isn't a link there that I can see

Kiddac,

Do you know which file is needed to be changed so the autotimer\zap to channel feature brings in green rather than black as per the picture? i've edited the epglist.xml but that doesnt seem to change it

With a possible version 3 in the pipeline and please bear in mind I'm purely throwing an idea out here so if it's a straight out no then cool but, how difficult would it to get the "choose bouquet" screen to look a bit more "sky like" with a tiles look like this

epglist.xml

<screen name="GraphicalEPGPIG" ...

<screen name="GraphicalEPG" ...

<screen name="GraphicalInfoBarEPG" ...


ZapForegroundColor="white"
ZapBackgroundColor="black"
ZapForegroundColorSelected="black"
ZapBackgroundColorSelected="skygold"

green is a preset colour so you can use that. Otherwise you have to use the argb format #00000000 . Just add 00 before any normal six digit rgb/hex number.

For example. For a bottle green hex value will be #007236. In enigma2 this would be #00007236

It would be near enough impossible without writing a complete new component from scratch. Which is beyond my capabilities. The code base is very very limited of what can be done on each screen. Basically you are given certain set of elements on each screen and all you can do is decide on the size, position, colours. That is is. The bouquet widget just comprises of a list. So all you can display is a list. If it was html and jquery I could write it easily but not with this creaking operating system.

The epg tabs is not officially part of my skin, and has to be added separately by the user due to it changing a default component of your box. You can find install instructions in my dropbox skin extras folder. It really isn't that difficult to implement. Personally I have uninstalled the epg tabs because it breaks the functions of the numpad which I use. I prefer the coloured button choices on that hack though.

Hey Kiddac, I'd edited each instance of ZapBackgroundColor="black" within the epglist.xml file last night but it was still pulling in black, i'll have to take another look later

 

[kiddac]

And thank you to the small number of people who have bought me an appreciation beer over the last couple of weeks. At this time of the year every little helps. :butkiss:

I know why... them colours are for the text view epg. The colours are actually background graphics if available. The graphic files live in epg folder in my skin. ZapEvent.png. Mine are just 5x5 px flat colour graphics. They can be any size you want as they scale to the size.

Hello kiddac, still got the same problem with the pig being zoomed in after reinstalling. Can you let me know where I will be able to change these settings please. Thanks

 

[Seaview1985]

Please excuse my ignorance, I've been away from the Forum for a month or so due to work commitments.... I updated to the latest Skin last night and finally got the Micro SD Card set up perfectly.
Excellent work Kiddac....
Should the "planner" /enhanced movie player be skinned?

can't help you with that especially if you were the person who said you were using a wetek with openelec. Nobody else is reporting that problem, so its not anything I can help you with.

EMC is not skinned. If you want the skinned movie list, you have to disable emc in plugins menu.

Now and Next info doesn't work fully, when you press > button on InfoBar it shows description for the Next programme BUT the title still shows for the Current programme.

Now, title correct press > button to get Next, title wrong

I've checked the Default skin and other skins and this info shows correctly, only showing wrong on Slyk1HD skin.

Can this be fixed with an updated InfoBar.xml file?
