Hi Catavolt! Sorry, I forgot to mention that I am using the ClassicHome screen. I tried using the BasicHome screen and it does work there. It's too bad that it's not possible to use the fireplace on the ClassicHome screen as it would look very nice there. Thank you for your help! :)

Curious ... Is there a reason "GUI - Screen" is accessed by "Settings/Screen set-up", and also "Settings/GUI/Screen"?

Did you see this thread ? The poster in that thread could not get MP's Schedules Direct plugin to work. I tried it on my test system (I don't have a Schedules Direct account), but I could not get it to work either. @framug mentioned that the plugins run no more than once per day, so that may have been my problem. However... I...

Ok thanks, nice idea... maybe i will give this i a try In the meantime i think i will go back to Titan Skin were the Exit Dialog is simply accessable.

The skin looks great but I would like to personalize it a little bit. Is there a simple way to replace the text and possibly also the icons for the menu items in the carousel root menu? I had a template for changing the icons in the Titan skin so was able to make my own. thanks Fangio.

@catavolt . Looks like not too many actually care what the Default skins are called, but the changes, IMO, should be done soon, possibly as soon as MP1.13 . Follow your heart. As long as it is a well announced and documented change we shouldn't get much flack. Keep up the Great work! Chuck

MP1 MP2 Year display DE
Hi, Been using MediaPortal for a number of years and think it is a really powerful application. I've been thinking for a while that I could do with being able to see a year being displayed in the recorded TV listings. I've never been able to find a setting to switch the year on, so I'm presuming it's a skin setting? I am using the...

I can only speak for myself: I have no plans to port this skin to MP2. On the other hand I would be very happy if someone does it :)

Suddenly realised what was so grating (to me) about the Titan skin. On most screens there is a grid, which means that I have to decide which button to press, right and down or down and then left. Now that may sound (and in some ways is) trivial but the point is with the old Default skins I didn't have that decision. Ergo, it was...

Ah, forgot to say: The workaround is that I put the whole NowPlaying overlays into the common.window.xml as well, so when this is called (standard in all screens), the overlay won´t disappear. The TVSeries.xml in DefaultWide does not import the common.window.xml, so the bug is visible. But it is still a bug, although with my...
