Slyk Skin Mods v5

[grantdavey91]

Yea that's no problem at all.

if you want siilver, and if kiddac doesn't mind, i can go through the mods from page 1 to present, download the files with instructions and create a new thread entitled something like 'Slyk Skin Mods V5 Download Only' , and then this one can continue to be used for the discussion of kiddac's skin?

I can just create one single post with just a list , e.g. :

Arrow at top - no line
Top Picks Screen
Sly Number Zap
Infobar mod
Epg Mod

I could then link each mod on the list to download and include info to this thread where the mod is discussed to eliminate users asking the same thing over and over

I just think it may be a lot clearer for people to see what's available as a mod on this thread all conveniently listed in one post

it may take a while to create, after gathering all the files and data, but it's definitely do-able , then once finished it'll just be a case of updating the post :)

Let me know if you would like it done, i'm just having my dinner but after that i'm free to get going with it; daughter's staying at a mate's house and the mrs is out for the night so i'm pretty bored anyway lol

thanks

This shoud sort it then...

Chabs ive got your mod on from post#425

ive changed it a little but i cant seem to get the icons to show would like these if its possible please

View attachment 19629

Bigcol the infobar wasn't included in chabs' mod download, only mods for the graphical epg - but i have pretty much the same infobar as in your screenshot

Bear in mind though that if you actually press the blue button, it will more than likely take you to the extensions menu, but this can be changed

if you go to menu, setup, system, user interface, button setup, press blue and you can go through the list to find something more fitting to the blue button to work with Last/fav

I have mine set as history zap, so when I press blue, I get the list of previous channels zapped.

You can however set it up for similar actions like, 'Zap Down' or 'Show favourites list'

i've added the download to this post, just ftp the png and overwrite in /usr/share/enigma2/slyk-1-hd/mybackgrounds

as far as the service icons go bigcol with pressing ok twice, chabs' is fixing the files previously uploaded as it's not showing for those of us who have used his mods

 

[boobishabang]

I've amended the infobar.xml to bring in the blue button, Last/Fav option rather than have it as part of the png file if you want it

[grantdavey91]

I've amended the infobar.xml to bring in the blue button, Last/Fav option rather than have it as part of the png file if you want it

i tried to do that at first but i did something wrong that made the box crash, is it quite simple to just edit the infobar.xml then? i'm assuming it would be just one line of code to enable the blue button and text with position and size?

 

[siilver]

going daft here to night
what setting do i need to change to stop the quickepg info window popping up when you open it ?

 

[kiddac]

extras.xml. ;)

 

[cornorth]

How do you get this layout (now next later all with description) for v5?
What would need editing (have previously asked #167)

 

[grantdavey91]

could anybody help me with the following :

on the top picks screen that i have amended i am getting a cut off of the tv picture; i have tried amending the size in mymods.xml but it only changes the size of the mini-tv and not the tv picture

im looking at this piece of code :

	<screen name="t3-tv">		<widget source="session.VideoPicture" render="Pig" position="860,91" size="378,248" zPosition="4" backgroundColor="transparent" />
		<eLabel position="860,304" size="378,35" zPosition="4" foregroundColor="skyblue" backgroundColor="skylightrow" transparent="0" font="Regular;19" />
		<widget source="session.CurrentService" render="Label" position="890,308" size="316,22" font="Regular;22" foregroundColor="skyblue" backgroundColor="skylightrow" transparent="1" valign="center" halign="center" noWrap="1" zPosition="5">
			<convert type="ServiceName">Name</convert>
		</widget>
	</screen>

is there a line i need to add it to get the full picture behind the mini tv - it seems to cut off about 50 or so pixels at the bottom, but doesn't stretch to enough pixels from left to right

thanks in advance

the elabel should be the size and position of where you want the tv to be placed this is acting like a mask.
Then copy these values into the video widget above it. and for this video increase the height and width by 10. Offset position by -5,-5

I am going to code and layout this properly myself. if you want to wait a few days. I have also managed to source a perfect image where all the images are crystal clear.

I am planning on attempting to do this. Each screen will only bring in an image for that channel. Therefore I am going to overlay a channel picon over the top. 2 cinema, 2 atlantic, 1 living, 1 store.

Thats the plan anyway. From the code danmed has written I might be able to achieve this.

thanks hideout, this made the tv picture fit in the box, but it also made the mini-tv screen around it bigger and out of place so i'm having a play with it - thanks for your help, much appreciated

[dsayers2014]

Anyone want to work out a top pics script for the vskin-hd? It already has 4 spaces to place the pics

 

[danmed]

All it will take is modifying the existing code to put the images in the right places and resize them accordingly...

Just re-read this and i don't understand what you mean by "Each screen will only bring in an image for that channel. Therefore I am going to overlay a channel picon over the top. 2 cinema, 2 atlantic, 1 living, 1 store"... i think i'm missing something..

 

[kiddac]

my picture explained it, but it didn't upload. i.e top-picks1.png is only going to be sky cinema images. top-picks2.png is only going to be sky atlantic etc.
I am going to try and refine your scraper. Some of the images have the name of the channel in it. i.e sky-living, sky-atlantic. So I might be able to only source images that are relevant to one channel.
If this is possible then I can just overlay that channels icon.
It means we get a more structured layout, but would be easier to design.

Dsayer... it was only a matter of time... ha

Ah, yeah that makes sense.. I saw the channel names in the "alt" tag but the regex i was using is already beyond my comprehension :)

Unless you have some other fancy way of overlaying the channel logos, you will have to use cloudinary.com rather than rsz.io as rsz.io doesn't have the facility.. You'll need to upload the channel logos to your account and call them using the name.

The only problem is that cloudinary free account only allows 7500 transformations a month and 75000 total before you have to upgrade.. and thats $50 a month :(

Hopefully there is another solution out there that can resize, convert to PNG and also overlay gfx...

good luck! there are plenty of ways my script can be optimised and improved on i'm sure :)

Oh.. and don't try and retrieve https via rsz.io as you'll get IP banned

 

[kiddac]

all your links work as http. https isn't needed on the image links.

you are not getting what I am planning to do. I am not going to embed the logo. I am just going to code it into the skin so it overlays the image.

[danmed]

all your links work as http. https isn't needed on the image links.

you are not getting what I am planning to do. I am not going to embed the logo. I am just going to code it into the skin so it overlays the image.

I get you now. Yes i know mine are http, as i change https in http in the code as some of the ones from www.sky.com/watch are https links.

anyway, look forward to seeing it.

 

[grantdavey91]

On my channel selection screen (tv button) i have the mod for cross epg users look, but now i seem to have lost the RYGB buttons at the bottom

anybody know how i can put these back on?

thanks

 

[siilver]

Newer mods file.
not including much different to before sorry, but should be able to add mods and keep them better

Link is dead

tested and working on v5.202

removed the font mods, but can add them in if people want them.


Details on my mods that i have worked on

Channel name removed from preview TV
Progress bar colours changed to sly gold


ABM graphic

before
View attachment 20220

after
View attachment 20252

just to move the graphic out of the way so its not so much in your face
(will do the same for crossepg)


i have tried to make it easier to activate the mods now. all files are drag and drop. so no need to over right current files. so when i comes to updating, once again just drag in and restart gui

not a lot changed, just cleaned up and now have a extras.xml override. so if there is any settings in both it will take the settings from my mod
so when it comes to updating it should just need copied over and restart GUI. if you have it set the way you want

all my mods are turned off when you first install. open the edit-me.xml and change what you want


any problems please let me know
