I'm having problems with the movie planner mod. I have the following files MovieList.py MovieList.pyo & MovieList-old.pyo - same with MovieSelection. Does this mean it's not compiled on reboot. Anyone else having this problem.
After you transferred the new py files across did you go into movie planner settings and scrolled down to use extended list and select sly planner?

Ok so been messing with my channelselection mod and now (imo) looks much better than my previous attempt (couldnt really see the tv in the bg) This screen is activated by pressing up/down from live tv. Usually you would see a big list of 18 channels and all the descriptions etc were down the side, i liked the side section, but wanted the "mini-tv" to be full screen, so i utilised the history-zap-bg file and proceeded with my modifications from there.

If you want to use this as your channelselection screen you need to download my zip file and extract the files within to the following folders

EventName.py goes into usr/lib/enigma2/python/Components/Converter (best to rename your original EventName.pyo file to EventName-old.pyo just incase)

This file will give you the fourth/fifth/sixth programme names on the now/next section.

EventTime.py also goes into the same folder and this will give u the start times for fourth/fifth/sixth programmes.

mymods.xml goes into usr/share/enigma2/slyk-1-hd

If you want the above mod, youll need to edit extras.xml file so that your using channelselection2

If you want the above (being able to scroll up/down) but without the descriptions edit extras.xml to use channelselection1

For the original layout with 18 rows use channelselection3

Download zip from here

You need to edit the file already in the slyk-1-hd folder called extras.xml and in here scroll down a bit until you see the part that says screen name="channelselection" and then just below that ull see panel name="channelselectionX" with X being with 1, 2 or 3 depending on what youve had it set to previously. Its here that you need to change the X value to 2 and then save the file and restart your GUI.

struggling here:
<!-- channelselection.xml -->
<!-- new spacious layout 3 for crossepg users -->
<screen name="ChannelSelection3">
<panel name="template3" />
<panel name="home" />
<panel name="tv-guide" />


this is the closest I can find

wrong xml me thinks, it should be extras! :beg:

Ah sorry ull need to add this line to the skin.xml file

<include filename="/usr/share/enigma2/slyk-1-hd/mymods.xml" />

and u need to add it just before the line says


<include filename="/usr/share/enigma2/slyk-1-hd/extras.xml" />
 
There is slyk v4 and v5 in my dropbox on first post of my slyk skin thread. V3 doesn't exist anymore. Use v4 if you don't want the latest

Ull need to edit the infobarlayout screens within the mymods.xml file so that you can fit the picon back into the infobar, as ive never used that mod before. Ull then probably need to amend my code for channelselection2 so that you can have the picon in the infobar there as well
