Ragamuffin · 2008-10-20, 15:09

TV-Server Version: 1.0 RC3
MediaPortal Version: 1.0 RC3
MediaPortal Skin: Blue 3. And i love that new skin.
Windows Version: Xp

Hi everybody,

i searched in the TV-Server and MediaPoral configuration, but i cannot find the Option "Use Colors for Genres" for the TV Giude. Where can i find it or what do i have to do to see it???

Thank u very much.

It's still in the built in TV engine, but not in the TV Server. From what I remember there is some difficulty to implement, as the colours should be the same for each genre on each client, but in the existing code they are randomly assigned by the client.

It's a shame as I also liked that feature. Then again, you do get kind of used to the single colour....
