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! :)

Is there a "Keyboard Help" screen in DefaultWideHD? to list keyboard controls? ... would be useful as a "Settings/General" sub menu.

Bearing in mind the programme list is only centred in the sense that any full screen display is by definition also centred, bumping the popup right is an unreliable hack. One that will break the moment anything gets changed. I'd prefer reverting back to the tiled options+list view of previous versions. A popup will never allow...

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...

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...

Hello, I tried to edit the menus- and submenus-Links. But without success. There are some places where I may edit. But I don't know, which of them I may edit. Also are there methods, which I don't know. Is there an manual or a tutorial, how I can edit a basic-home-menu. Ciao Thomas

@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
