0.2.0 RC3 "Channel" and "group" greyed o

mickyblue · 2006-03-19, 01:55

I have just installed the new RC3 and am having problems in MY TV i have retunned all the stations here in brisbane but when you enter MY TV the channel and group buttons are greyed out meaning i cant change channel, the TV reception works perfectly as the default station "Channel 7" comes up with perfect picture and sound, and if i change the default channel to channel 9 or 10 they work perfectly aswell,

i also have this funny little grey box which partially covers the button "teletext" - this however doesnt concern me much as it only when tv is minimised

any help on fixing the Channel problem would be much appreciated other wise so far this release looks fantastic.

Are you using the BlueTwo skin?

For the longest time I've been using another skin until small problems starting popping up whenever I installed the newest CVS build. I finally had to go back to BlueTwo and haven't had a problem since.

Have just worked it out its a problem with the RealMP skin, as soon as i revert back to the MCE skin everything works fine.

The problem is probably due to the way the channel and group buttons now works; they've changed from the last official release to this one. The channel button now opens up a dialog box with a listcontrol, so you can scroll thru the channels.

If the skin you are using hasn't been updated to work with RC3 from RC2, you will probably run across a few more issues, such as mymusic not working properly due to a few new xml files. Give the skinners some time to catch up; the default skins are the safest route the first few days after a release.
